Description

In this episode, we sit down with Frances — a true global citizen who has lived in 10 countries across 4 continents, slept in coffee shops, hitchhiked to strawberry farms, and ended up showcasing her fashion designs at New York Fashion Week.

Raised on the Move: Frances shares what it was like growing up between continents — from Hong Kong to Australia to Mexico — and how constant relocation shaped her worldview and resilience.

Sleeping in a Coffee Shop, Digging in Laos: Hear the wild story of how Frances lived in a coffee shop in the UK and joined an archaeology expedition in Laos — complete with live monks, active bombs, and 17th-century discoveries.

Photography, Purpose & the Power of a Picture: From losing a camera in Fiji to capturing dinosaur-like lizards in Australia, Frances explains how photography became a tool for cultural appreciation and storytelling.

From Lockdown Sewing to NY Fashion Week: How Frances launched a diverse, upcycled fashion line — and took it all the way to the runway.
