January 11, 2022 78. Natalie Steen: Founder of The Nat Note
In today's episode, our host Emily Landers welcomes Natalie Steen to the first episode of the year! Natalie is a Cuban-American, Miami, Florida native living in Houston, Texas. Natalie is a lawyer with a good creative bug and a bad online shopping habit, which together led to the creation of The Nat Note. Think of it as a virtual note dropped in your inbox from Natalie herself, sharing products that catch her eye each week.
Natalie's personal style covers a little bit of everything: She loves bold prints, colors, and embellishments as much as she loves classic stripes and versatile neutrals. Natalie has a passion for party wear and fun accessories but appreciates and seeks out pieces that she can wear to her corporate job.
The Nat Note is Natalie's attempt to condense all the above into a newsletter that she hopes brings some joy, welcome distraction, and buyer’s high to everyday life. We know this episode will be encouraging to all of our listeners, one you will likely want to share with a friend!

December 14, 2021 77. Marguerite Adzick: Founder of Addison Bay
On today's episode, host Emily Landers welcomes Addison Bay founder, Marguerite Adzick, onto the show!
Addison Bay was founded after Marguerite's passion for fitness as a collegiate athlete merged with her successful career in the fashion industry. Recognizing a need in the industry for a single, quality platform with functional and stylish activewear, Addison Bay launched in September of 2018.
Marguerite resigned from a job she loved – at six months pregnant! – to start Addison Bay, with the idea that fashion-forward activewear was here to stay. The problem she was trying to solve? Finding activewear that was polished yet comfortable. “I wanted to have one look take me from school drop off, straight into the office, on to drinks with my husband, and home with our kids. Creating this one-stop-shop was the solution all busy, on-the-go women needed, including myself.”
We know you'll enjoy hearing Marghi's story - the last guest episode of the year for HSDT and one we know will encourage many!
