Five years ago, Mallory Hagedorn was a stay-at-home mother of two living in Beverly Hills. Then the FBI knocked on her door. Her husband of almost twelve years, her college sweetheart, was arrested for running a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme. Her life as she knew it was over.
Overnight she had two babies under four, no career, no home, and $100 to her name.
In this conversation, Mallory walks Caroline through exactly how she rebuilt, step by step: the move back to her tiny hometown of Santa Claus, Indiana, the three-month custody battle that cost six figures, the declaration she made when she won, and the phone call she made twenty-four hours later that started her career.
Mallory talks about taking her financial empowerment back, the power of exercise, visualisation, believing in yourself and taking action... and the vision board that quietly held a man's silhouette the year she met her partner, Taylor.
Today Mallory is a solo mum of two boys, a homeowner, the self-taught COO of a hair extension company, and has bravely appeared on a documentary about what happened. This is an honest, practical, deeply moving episode for anyone standing at the beginning of a rebuild and wondering where on earth to start.
