Hi, I’m Pete Nordstrom, and I'm the host of The Nordy Pod, a new podcast coming to you from the 6th floor of Nordstrom corporate headquarters in Seattle, Washington. In addition to hosting this podcast, I also happen to be the president of Nordstrom. And along with my brother Erik, CEO, and my cousin Jamie, President of Stores, we're the fourth-generation stewards of this business started by my great grandfather in 1901.
My Nordstrom journey began when I was 12 years old with my first job working in the stockroom. And along the way, I’ve met so many incredible people, from iconic artists and CEOs to cultural and community leaders and fashion entrepreneurs—as well as many of our thousands of employees and millions of customers.
One thing I've found helpful in running a company and hosting a podcast is the importance of having a strong sense of curiosity. Over the years, I’ve found myself in some very interesting conversations with people I greatly admire. These cumulative experiences have really enriched my life, and with The Nordy Pod, I'm excited to have the opportunity to share both professional and personal experiences with you.
So join me on a journey as I take you deep into a business that also happens to be a public company. You'll go behind the scenes with me and hear firsthand exactly what I do in my day job, warts and all, in the hopes of making a human connection with every episode.

Ep 81. Nuna at Nordstrom: Revolutionizing the World of Baby Gear
Wait a minute! Nordstrom? The high-end fashion department store that sells apparel and accessories from brands like Gucci, and Prada, and Louis Vuitton? They sell baby gear?! The answer is yes, and on top of making you feel great about the comfort and safety of your newborn baby, we're going to make sure you look good too. Listen in as Pete talks with Brad Bickley, Global President of the luxury baby-gear brand Nuna, that managed to slap a ‘baby on board’ sticker to our store window and become one of Nordstrom’s top selling brands.
After my conversation with Brad, stick around to hear more about the challenges and benefits of carrying this characteristically complex category from our Divisional Merchandise Manager for Kids at Nordstrom, Rachel Eichen.
Expectant parents, you’re going to love this episode. And I guarantee you’re going to love Nuna.
Thanks for tuning in to episode 81. We hope you enjoy it!
