Episode 61: Barbora Samieian: A family brand of warmth

From Slovakia to Canada to your living room, come snuggle down with Barbora Samieian. She's one of the co-founders of the fan favorite Sundays Furniture, the newly launched furniture brand Hetta, and Vancouver's fave lunch spot, Field and Social. Her story as a founder and as a parent to her 4 kids is integrally linked to her own brand of warmth, cultivated over borders, across cultures, and now into our homes.

In this chat, Barbora and I cover everything from what it was like growing up in Czechoslovakia turned Slovakia, emigrating to Canada as a pre-teen, leaving behind a prestigious career in international relations to pursue passion projects, founding companies with her friends and family, making time for herself and her kids, and how hard the post-partum period can be - even when you've got support.
