Ep. 88: Meet the Founder with Stephanie Lee of SELFMADE

This is the third episode in my Meet the Founder series and my guest has gone all the way from The White House to developing products for MAC Cosmetics, to starting her own brand. With a decade of experience that includes politics, government and beauty, Stephanie Lee’s own personal challenges when it came to her mental health inspired her to build a brand that was about self-exploration. The resulting brand, SELFMADE, is built with emotional intelligence at its core and in this conversation initially held on my Instagram Live @beautymepodcast, Stephanie shared how she recognised the signs that her mental health was being challenged and how her workspace wasn’t providing any coping tools. She discusses her career journey and how it influenced her decision to build a brand and shares how she ensures that the mental health of herself and her team at SELFMADE is the top priority.
