186: How to Radically Transform Your Life with Julia Haart of My Unorthodox Life
If you've ever felt stuck in a life that doesn’t reflect who you really are—or if you’ve ever wondered if it’s “too late” to start over—this episode will hit deep. Julia Haart, star of My Unorthodox Life and fashion powerhouse is on the podcast. In this raw, empowering, and wildly inspiring conversation, Josie sits down with Julia to unpack her journey from growing up in a suppressive ultra-Orthodox Jewish community to becoming a hugely successful fashion entrepreneur and global advocate for women's freedom. They get real about the courage it takes to walk away from the only life you’ve ever known, how to reclaim your voice after being silenced, and what confidence actually looks like when you’ve had to rebuild it from the ground up. You’ll hear: Julia's incredible story, how she completely transformed ingrained beliefs to transform her life, and her unfiltered take on religion, sexuality, and success. This one is a must-listen for anyone craving a reset, a reminder of their power, or proof that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
