Mary Orton is a woman who wears many hats. After starting her career in investment banking, she took a leap of faith in 2013 and started a fashion blog dedicated to helping women find their personal style and confidence in the workplace. Since then, she has built an ever-growing online community centered around fashion, beauty, design, and confidence. Now, she’s also the founder and CEO of the first women’s luxury baseball cap brand, CHORD, which provides thoughtfully-made, elevated baseball caps designed to help women feel polished and put-together no matter where the day takes them. In this episode, we discuss Mary’s online journey from blogging to Instagram, the story behind CHORD, and how the things that terrify you most often take you the farthest.
