Teaser Season 2

Fashion Career Lab

My name is Lucas SILVA EDWARDS, I am a Career strategist and Executive coach and I am please to announce that FASHION CAREER STORIES is back for a second season, starting next week.

If you are new to this podcast, let me tell you what we trying to built in this community.

With more than 10 years of experience in the fashion and luxury industry, here in Paris, France. And thanks to my large diversity of positions, from retail, wholesale, product development, or Fashion editor, I have acquired an insider view of what it takes to succeed in groupe like LVMH, Kering or Chanel but also in fashion tech startup or small designer brands.

And with this podcast, my role is to help you DESIGN a SUCCESSFUL LIFE and CAREER in one of the most competitive industry on the planet. For that reason, I interview each week fashion professionals at DIFFERENT STAGES of their career, in order to decode their best PRACTICES, TACTICS and STRATEGIES.

In this season, while a majority of my guest are french, we are gonna continue to travel, and get perspective from professionals from all around the world. Some of them come from Mexico, China or even Belgium and the Netherlands.

What they all have in common is their passion for this industry, the desire to find their way in and the will to make it better.

In this season, we are going to learn about:

• How to make it as women in fashion tech companies
• What does it mean to really work in sustainability
• The reality of building a fashion brand from scratch
• How to live from your side hustle and become an expert of your field
• Why personal finance is key to design a successful life and career

I could continue on because the list is long.

Personally this second season gave me confirmation, that the more we all share our stories and challenges, the more we are collectively improving. Sometimes, our industry impose on us it criteria of perfection. And when we are facing though moments, it feels that we are the only one struggling and we sometimes feeling ashamed and worthless.

As you will hear in each of the conversations, we all have those moments and they are part of the journey. We feel that there is bug of some sort, when in reality it become a feature in our story.

Sometimes you are able to get thru by yourself or by learning from others, like in this podcast. But sometimes, we need some more help. If that’s you case, feel free to reach out. As a trained and certified coach, I will help you get pass that situation, acquired the leadership skills to face those moment of uncertainty and help you find your momentum back.
