from Mother Tongue · host Mother Tongue
Today we have a guest whose work has quietly, beautifully shaped the way millions of people smell the world.Jo Malone CBE is a self-taught perfumer and entrepreneur who founded Jo Malone London and later sold the brand in 2006. In 2011, she launched Jo Loves - brands that turned simple scent into a language of memory and luxury. She grew Jo Malone London from a kitchen-table idea into a global name and then made the bold move of selling the brand to Estée Lauder - only to go on and build again, proving that reinvention is part of her signature. Jo’s story is as human as it is aspirational: she came from humble beginnings, faced and overcame severe personal challenges including a battle with cancer, and has been recognised for her services to business with honours including a CBE. Get comfortable: this is a conversation about resilience, motherhood, and the small rituals that make life smell so good.Find Jo Malone on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jomalonecbeJo Loves Official: https://www.instagram.com/jolovesofficialJo Vodka: https://www.instagram.com/jovodkaFind us on instagram @wearemothertongueSubscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@mothertonguethepodcastTHE MOTHER TONGUE PODBOOKThe Mother Tongue podbook is a collection of interviews with experts on everything you need to know about parenthood from pre-conception all the way through to when your kids starts school.
