Nicole Giordano wanted to help women in the fashion industry build successful businesses around the life they wanted, and not the other way around. She created Fashion Start Up, a membership community that supports independent designers (both newbies and seasoned) to build and grow their ventures on their own terms.

Her community provides video workshops, templates and tools specific to those growing their fashion businesses. Listen in as Nicole shares how she grew her membership platform, invited her life partner to join the business, and how she practices what she preaches by setting goals that fuel her life goals.
