An Army of Superwomen: Author & Entrepreneur Julia Haart of My Unorthodox Life

This episode contains discussion of trauma, suicide and disordered eating. Raised within the confines of Haredi Judaism, Julia Haart was taught that the smaller you make yourself, the better you fulfill your role as a woman. Like many people brought up in extremely religious communities, barriers to the outside world made leaving seem nearly impossible. Only when Julia saw her own questions reflected by her children did she make the difficult decision to leave that world behind. The life that Julia has created in the time since has inspired women around the world. From her autobiography, Brazen , and subsequent Netflix show, My Unorthodox Life , to her roles as creative director of La Perla and CEO of Elite World Group, Julia has gone from keeping quiet to living out loud. Seeking to create an army of financially independent women who don’t wait for permission, Julia embodies her motto, “if you want to change the world, you’ve got to make a lot of noise.” Thanks for listening!
