Maggie Winter is the cofounder and CEO of AYR: A digitally native fashion brand built for a new generation of women. AYR creates seasonless, timeless and ageless essentials as an alternative to fast fashion. In our conversation we talk about the realities of being a female entrepreneur, from financing an early stage company to balancing self care. For Maggie, the most important thing in life is how she spends her time and she spends it objectively well - being bicoastal, choosing to be present in everything she does and creating a relatable brand for the new generation of women with two of her best friends. She talks about the dynamic between the three co founders, why trust, understanding and communication are essential when working together and how support systems can get you through the tough times - just as they help you celebrate the ‘champagne moments’. Maggie is a pioneer in redefining what a business, brand and executive looks like and is helping to pave the way for other new leaders in society - one that her 15 year old self would definitely be proud of.
