Alexia Ioannou is on the pod and I love her!! This is a fun chat about going with your gut, leading with the things you like, and learning it all as you go. Alexia reveals the influences that have shaped her vision (her mom's shoe closet!) and walks us through the process of designing her dream shoe from concept to creation.  We get into how she learned how to tune out the external noise and truly honor her own aesthetic instincts - a lesson applicable far beyond the fashion world. Sometimes the most powerful tool for success is starting small and seeing what happens when you give yourself permission to try. Love her relatability, charm, and she is here to lead us to all the best shoes.
