Sewing In The City, Christine Lindebak

Samantha and Melissa introduce exciting changes for their podcast, featuring pop-in co-hosts from past popular episodes. With both lady's reaffirming that the integrity and essences of Skirts Up will remain the same.

Today centers on an inspiring conversation with Christine Lindebak, founder of 'Sewing in the City'(yes the name was spawned from the famous TV show Sex and The City) and fashion line, LindyLindy found in stores around New York.

Christine shares her lifelong passion for sewing, starting from age five, and her journey from working in fashion in New York to creating a successful sewing business. Despite facing moments of wanting to quit, Christine's passion for sewing fueled her perseverance, confirming the 'three to survive, five to thrive' business model. She also speaks candidly about taking a year off for intentional rest and resetting, proudly listing it on her resume, which highlights the value of prioritizing mental health. Something us women are often times ashamed to do. Why?

Her stories of upcycling old garments into new, unique pieces reflect her creativity and innovative spirit.

The episode encourages listeners to embrace their passions, persist through tough times, and recognize the importance of self-care and intentional downtime.
