Today I'm joined by Amy, the founder of Fuchsia Shaw. We first recorded together back in 2019 (in my spare room… how times have changed!), and now she's back after a powerful brand relaunch that's been nothing short of inspiring.

Amy shares the full story from walking away from her original business at its peak, to returning stronger, more strategic and with a whole new mindset.

If you've ever felt like you've lost your spark, doubted your next move, or wondered if it's "too late" to start again then this one is so worth a listen.

In this episode, we cover:

🔁 Why Amy paused her brand at the height of success
→ And how she made peace with walking away to protect her wellbeing

🛠️ Behind the scenes of a relaunch
→ What she changed, what stayed the same and how she built trust again

📱 Her content strategy that doesn't feel salesy
→ Including how she talks around the product and stays consistent without burnout

🧵 Balancing creativity with structure
→ How Amy protects her design time while still managing cash flow, launches and a growing team

📦 Building momentum without reinventing the wheel
→ Why she's leaning into repeat bestsellers, smart restocks and email marketing

🧠 CEO mindset shifts & what's changed since round one
→ From making data-led decisions to letting go of perfection

🌸 Her dream for the next year (yes, there's a shop mention!)
→ And how she's growing slowly, intentionally and creatively

Plus: a quickfire round on celebrity stylists, creative rituals and her favourite part of the design process 👗
