Matilda Murray // Stax on!

Seize the Yay

Welcome back to the show after approximately 92 Business Months since the last episode, I am so grateful for your patience during our extended hiatus. It’s actually only been 10 weeks but feels like I’ve lived 10 lifetimes since then and I’d planned for a much shorter gap, but we’re here now and it’s SO good to be back!

I couldn’t have picked a better first guest back than Matilda Murray as you’ll hear she’s pretty much a walking embodiment of Seize the Yay and articulates everything that’s in my head but better AND in a way you haven’t already heard me parrot on about before. I was actually quite nervous feeling a bit dusty going into this one after so long, but I found it so invigorating to hear some of my favourite life philosophies in a new way and hope you do too.

I have followed Matilda for many years and her pathYAY represents so many things we love on the show – she and her partner Don are now the brains behind multimillion dollar activewear brands Stax and Second Left living their dreams showing at Paris Fashion Week and opening new stores left right and centre… BUT she didn’t finish school, started in a job she didn’t love that lasted many years and Stax was a pivot from an originally failed business.

It’s the perfect example of the staircase quote I always bang on about only she has a WAY better analogy that blew my mind! She’s also become an institution in and of herself and you’ll soon understand why the masses hang on to her every word – I loved this chat so much and it gave me so much love back for the show – I hope it does for you too!!!
