Episode notes
In this episode, we sit down with Holly, founder and CEO of Fundae, the bold, joy-filled footwear brand redefining sustainable fashion. From a 25-year career in media and podcasting to debuting at Paris Fashion Week with Flying Solo, Holly shares how her love of shoes and passion for conscious consumerism sparked a revolution in plant-based, colorful, and truly sustainable design. She takes us behind the scenes of her patented magnetic hardware, Italian-sourced recycled soles, and materials like wine grape leather and cork — proving sustainability doesn’t have to be beige. This is the story of a founder who turned style, innovation, and purpose into a brand built for fun, flair, and a better future.
