Molly Sims: Anti-Aging Has Gone Too Far! Why I Froze My Eggs At 37 & Refused To Settle

Molly Sims: Anti-Aging Has Gone Too Far! Why I Froze My Eggs At 37 & Refused To Settle

Model, presenter and YSE Beauty founder, Molly Sims,  joins Maggie Sellers Reum on Hot Smart Rich to talk Sports Illustrated, freezing embryos, prenups, anti-aging, and why women should never settle for less than the life they actually want. Molly shares her journey from Vanderbilt pre-law student to 90s model, taking every job she could while being told she was too commercial, too blonde and not “editorial” enough. After years of showing up, she went on to land Vogue Paris, Victoria’s Secret and Sports Illustrated - proving that sometimes the “no” is just the beginning of the next “yes”!  Molly also opens up about the fertility decision she made before it was mainstream, the money lessons her mother taught her, and why she built YSE Beauty for women who wanted clinical skincare that actually worked without making them feel old.  Get unselfish access to the insights that will help you own the room.

Hayley Paige: What I Wish I Knew Before My Name Became The Brand (it almost cost me everything)

Wedding dress designer Hayley Paige sits down with Maggie Sellers Reum to talk about contributing to a $220M bridal brand, that challenged her identity, and her fight to win back the right to use her own name! Before Hayley became one of bridal fashion’s most recognisable names, she was a young designer signing what looked like her dream contract. Years later, that same opportunity turned into a legal battle that left her unable to use her own name commercially, forced her to hand over her social media passwords, and stripped her of the identity she had spent years building. Hayley opens up about the contract mistake she wishes more women understood, why she paid $263,000 to buy back her name and IP, and how money gave her the freedom to escape one of the hardest chapters of her life!  They also get into modern wedding trends, Gen Z brides, Vogue weddings, coloured dresses, Taylor Swift’s dream dress, and the Bad Bunny Super Bowl bride moment.

Tezza Barton joins Maggie Sellers Reum on Hot Smart Rich to talk about building the TEZZA app, Instagram photo editing, creator culture, and turning a launch she nearly deleted into a $2.5M first year win!  Before Tezza became the app every cool girl, creator and brand had on their phone, she was selling Lightroom presets, building failed businesses with her husband, and trying to move out of their 250-square-foot apartment… Tezza tells Maggie about the brutal app launch, the reviews that made her want to delete it all, and the pivot that turned the backlash into a real business.
