Description:

A few years back, Marisa Lynch lost her magazine job to the global financial crisis and fell into depression. Then, inspired by the film Julie and Julia, she turned to a passion she'd long neglected – sewing. Marisa challenged herself to make 365 upcycled dresses in 365 days for just $365.

Her New Dress A Day blog quickly went viral, and Marisa appeared on TV, was interviewed by the likes of The New York Times, made dresses for celebrities and secured a book deal.

In this podcast, Marisa also talks about how unemployment taught her to put herself first, how being raw and honest on her blog helped build a deeply connected community, and the one little step she took that turned her blog into a global success.
