  • Spilling the Tea with Emeric Harney

    Spilling the Tea with Emeric Harney
    Feb 18 2026
    Tea is one of the most enduring rituals in our daily lives. A pause, a comfort, a habit passed quietly from one generation to the next.

    In this episode, I'm joined by Emeric Harney of Harney & Sons, the family-run American tea company known for its dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and tradition. Together, we go beyond nostalgia and into the inner workings of a heritage brand, from how their tea is sourced and blended to the relationships built with growers around the world, to the discipline required to create consistency in a product shaped by nature.

    Emeric shares what it means to steward a multi-generational company, how art and science come together in the process, and why tea remains an enduring ritual.

  • Heirlooms in the Making with Little English

    Heirlooms in the Making with Little English
    Feb 4 2026
    In this episode, I sit down with Dunn Latham, President and Designer of Little English, the children’s fashion and lifestyle brand founded by her mother, Shannon, in 2004. What began as a collection of traditional hand-smocked layette has grown into an upscale, full-service apparel and accessories line, carried by Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and Maisonette.

    Dunn shares how she carries forward the family legacy, honoring not only the heirloom-quality garments the brand creates but also the ethos and spirit of Little English itself — a company that has been lovingly passed down and continues to shape the traditions of childhood, celebration, and thoughtful living. From crafting “forever quality” clothing meant to be treasured and passed down, to inspiring milestone moments like baby showers and first birthdays, this conversation blends nostalgia, style, and intentional living.

Plus, what they can teach us about love, celebration, and the joys of tangible tradition today.

  • Enduring Resort Style with Pamela Munson

    Enduring Resort Style with Pamela Munson
    Jan 14 2026
    In this episode, I sit down with Pamela Munson, the designer behind her namesake straw accessories brand, known for its timeless style, thoughtful craftsmanship, and storytelling approach to design. Inspired by summers spent near (and on!) the water, family traditions, and the understated elegance of her grandmother, Pamela creates handbags and accessories that feel both classic and quietly modern, pieces meant to be used, loved, and kept.

    With more than 15 years of experience in the fashion industry at CHANEL, Oscar de la Renta, and Bergdorf Goodman, Pamela brings an understanding of design and business to her work. Her straw collections are carried by luxury retailers and featured in publications like Vogue, Town & Country, and Oprah Magazine.

    In our conversation, Pamela shares how personal history shapes her creative process, what goes into designing with a natural, seasonless material, and her approach to building a brand rooted in longevity rather than trends. It's a thoughtful look at how memory, craft, and restraint come together to create enduring style.
