    Annah Stretton - The Kiwi Who Built a Fashion Empire from a Farm Shed

    Annah Stretton - The Kiwi Who Built a Fashion Empire from a Farm Shed

    November 23, 2025
    1h 54m

    She built a fashion empire from a farm shed.


    She survived public pile-ons that would crush most people.


    She made millions, lost millions, and found her true purpose inside New Zealand’s women’s prisons.


    At 65, Anna Stretton is sharper, tougher, funnier, and more unapologetically herself than ever…and her story is wild.

    In this conversation, Annah S opens up about:


    The thrill of making $500,000 profit in her first year


    The humiliation of a cease-and-desist when she ripped off an American shoe brand.


    What she’s learned from 12 years working with incarcerated women. And so much more!


    This is an absolute masterclass in entrepreneurship, resilience, reinvention, and staying relentlessly true to yourself, especially when the world tries to knock you down.
