Summary

After leaving both her marriage and the rigid confines of her Orthodox Jewish religious upbringing, Julia Haart found herself alone at 42, with no education, no friends, and no family. What followed was nothing short of extraordinary: she turned her passion into profit, creating a beautiful life for herself and inspiring countless others along the way. In this raw, empowering episode, Julia Haart, renowned fashion designer, entrepreneur, and best-selling author, opens up about the extraordinary journey that has defined her life. Known for her bold transition from the confines of ultra-Orthodox Judaism to the glitzy world of fashion, Julia's story isn’t just about reinvention—it’s about finding the strength to build a life that is unapologetically her own. As the former CEO of Elite Model Management and Creative Director for La Perla, Julia's impact on the fashion world is undeniable. But it’s her personal story—one of overcoming immense obstacles—that truly resonates. This episode offers an intimate, candid look into Julia’s life after she stepped away from everything she knew. With honesty and vulnerability, she reflects on her experience with ultra-Orthodox Judaism, her recent divorce, and the tough but transformative decision to forge a new path. Julia shares how she rebuilt her life from the ground up and became an outspoken advocate for women’s rights, the Jewish community, and the fight against antisemitism. For anyone who has ever felt isolated, trapped in a toxic relationship, or struggled to find their purpose, Julia’s story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to start over. No matter your age or where you start, the chance to live your best life is always within reach. This episode is a beacon of hope for those feeling lost, stuck, or discouraged, showing you that with courage, resilience, and a willingness to take that first step, anything is possible. Tune in for a conversation that will leave you feeling motivated, inspired, and ready to take on the world—no matter where you’re starting from. Stay Connected to The Lo Life!
