Summary

What’s up 2025?! A Touch More is back and ready to kick off the new year with a fresh episode. In this first drop of the year, Megan and Sue dive into their 2025 “intentions” – focusing on wellness, growth, and a healthy amount of spontaneity. The episode also features a fantastic conversation with Courtney Mays – Sue’s stylist, a leading voice in women’s sports and fashion, and a dear friend. Courtney shares insights into the business of styling, how WNBA fashion is evolving, and the differences she’s noticed when working with players this season compared to past years. She also offers advice on stepping outside of comfort zones to explore personal style, along with the trends she’s most excited for in 2025. Megan and Sue wrap things up by sharing their personal goals for the year (expect plenty of plants and books) and answering some rapid-fire fan questions.
