Episode 7: The Origin of Local Threads

Local Threads started as a sustainable fashion podcast in Boston but it’s grown into something much bigger: a creative community across New England that celebrates the arts, third-space curators, and the threads that connect us all.

In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain to share the full story:

• Why I started Local Threads
• My move to Boston and the search for community
• How mental health shaped my work and my new normal
• Why this podcast keeps me accountable and grounded
• The values that guide everything I do — sustainability, inclusivity, creativity, and collaboration

If you’ve ever felt like an outsider searching for your people, or if you’ve thought about building your own community from scratch, this episode is for you.
