Description
Julia Haart is an American fashion designer, entrepreneur and author of her bestselling autobiography 'Brazen'. She was also the subject and executive director of the Netflix documentary series 'My Unorthodox Life', about her life as a working mother of 4, after she left her ultra-orthodox Jewish life. Julia updated me on her latest projects including a new type of shapewear that she has developed.  She explained how her little daughter Miriam gave her the courage to leave her husband and their community, after she asked to play football as a child but was not allowed to because her knees would show. She also shared her three rules for being a good parent, and explained how work, for her, is freedom.   Julia is an inspiring speaker and I guarantee you will be inspired by her energy and passion! Trigger warning: references to mental health, wanting to commit suidcide, and eating disorder.  Spinning Plates is presented by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, produced by Claire Jones and post-production by Richard Jones Hosted on Acast.
