Today’s episode is a real goodie, I’m speaking to Angela Scott about her namesake brand From The Office of Angela Scott.
Founded a decade ago for Women Who Mean Business,™ The Office of Angela Scott is more than just a luxury footwear brand, it represents the collective power of all women. A perfect trifecta, The Office of Angela Scott is a woman-owned, woman-run and woman-funded brand designed to pave the way for professional women, one beautiful shoe at a time.
But Angela’s story isn’t one of overnight success, she’s been grinding away and she shares so openly and honestly that it was only 2 years ago she felt a true inflection point where everything started to just click.
This is an episode about that relentless pursuit and conviction about what you’re doing in the world and why you’re doing it. We speak about how she’s funded the business and why it’s important to ask for help and turn to the people around you, and some of her key learnings from along the way. Like the power of truly understanding your customer and putting them at the forefront of everything you do.

Joining me on the show today is Molly Fienning. Co-Founder of Red Clay Hot Sauce.
Like the name suggests, this is a mighty hot sauce. Red Clay is a cold-pressed, made-for-foodies hot sauce & hot honey brand, which was named "Tabasco for the 21st century" by Food and Wine Magazine. Crafted by a talented Southern Chef, Red Clay sauces lead with flavor to enhance your plate of food, versus burning your palate with excess heat.
Red Clay is thoughtful about craft and high-quality ingredients, which is why chefs and foodies (like Martha Stewart!!) prefer this sauce over others. It's the only cold-pressed, fermented hot sauce and the only 100% raw hot honey on the grocery shelf.
This is such a great episode for anyone in the food biz. Molly really takes us through what the growth has looked like year on year - right down to the numbers, specifically how she got the brand into Wholefoods and what it looks like to join a pre existing brand as a co-founder later on in the journey. Plenty of key insights that I know you’re going to appreciate!!
