In today’s soulful and empowering episode, I’m joined by someone who means the world to me - my dear friend and the true definition of a modern-day superwoman, Emily Griffith.
Emily is the founder and creative force behind The Fold, one of the most beloved and beautiful salons in Dubai. But this episode goes way beyond balayage and foil - we dive deep into the real, raw journey behind building a beauty empire while balancing motherhood, marriage, wellness, and a passion-fuelled business.
From how she created a sanctuary-like space that radiates calm and care, doubts, and the emotional weight of running it all - this conversation is about resilience, vision, vulnerability, and heart.
In this episode, we cover:
• The origin story of The Fold and what inspired Emily to start her own brand
• The reality of managing a team of women and friends in business
• Navigating boundaries, burnout, and business guilt
• The emotional truth behind “having it all”
• Fitness, motherhood, and running half marathons while building a brand
• The power of showing up, even on the hard days
• Her top beauty/fashion/podcast recommendations in our Quick Fire Round
• What’s next for Emily and The Fold
This one is a total heart-hug and the inspiration hit you didn’t know you needed.
