YCL’s Fabienne Costa | How She’s Living, Leading & Creating in Alignment

This week on Reset, I sat down with Fabienne Costa, Founder of YCL Jewellery and Co-Founder of SRLA for a conversation that I know so many of you will find powerful and personal.

Fabienne is one of those women who leads with heart and honesty. We spoke about what it really takes to build and grow a business, how she’s navigated co-founding SRLA with her friend, and how becoming a mother has changed the way she leads and lives.

She also opened up about her fertility journey - something that so many high-achieving women silently go through and how it taught her to soften, surrender, and rethink success. I’m so grateful for how generously she shared the raw, emotional side of that chapter in her life.

We also touched on leadership, social media, personal branding, and how she chooses what to share online versus what she protects. And of course, I couldn’t resist asking what advice her 90-year-old self would give her today.

If you're building something, navigating change, or feeling like you're in a season of unknowns this one’s for you.

In this episode, we chat about:

• Why she ignored the advice to never go into business with a friend

• The behind-the-scenes of building not one, but two brands

• Her fertility journey - and the lessons she learned beyond the spreadsheets and goal-setting

• How motherhood has shaped her leadership style

• What she shares on social media (and what she chooses to keep sacred)

• How she’s thinking about AI and the future of business

• The things she’s doing now to help set her daughter up for a thriving future

• And the powerful wisdom she imagines her 90-year-old self would offer her today

This is such a beautiful and honest chat. I hope it reminds you that you’re not alone - and that even in the hardest chapters, there is softness, strength, and space to rewrite the story.
