Author: Echo News May 22, 2024 Duration: 1:29:46

In this week’s episode, we chat with Lee Martin, founder of 'Style Your Way', a sustainable pre-loved fashion boutique located in Ferny Hills.


"Styling you, supporting our community" is her mantra and over the past seven years Lee has created a community around pre-loved fashion and giving back, donating a percentage of its profit to Hummingbird House - Queensland’s only children’s hospice that provides specialised paediatric palliative care services. 


Lee’s background is in fashion and her passion is working with women to discover their individual style, what suits their body shape, and the right hues for their complexion.


We chat sustainable, slow fashion, finding your personal style, decluttering and simplifying your wardrobe, what it takes to follow your passion and build a business and the impact of giving back to the local community and supporting charities in need. 


You can visit Style Your Way boutique at Shop 1, 18-20 Ferny Way, Ferny Hills. You can also follow Style Your Way on their socials - https://www.facebook.com/leestyleyourway.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.


There’s a particular rhythm to life in Brisbane’s north-west suburbs, and Talk of the Town by Echo News captures it perfectly. Hosted by Von and Steve, this weekly conversation feels less like a broadcast and more like catching up with well-informed neighbors who have a knack for finding fascinating stories right around the corner. The focus here is on the texture of the community itself-the new bakery shaping a high street, the artist turning a local landmark into a canvas, or the quiet efforts of individuals whose work strengthens the area’s social fabric. By weaving together elements of arts, business, and culture, each episode offers a nuanced look at what’s happening and why it matters. You’ll hear genuine interviews that go beyond simple announcements, exploring the challenges and triumphs behind local news. This podcast from Echo News serves as an essential, grounded companion for anyone curious about the forces-both economic and creative-that define their surroundings. It’s for residents who believe understanding your own suburb, from its community events to its emerging enterprises, is key to feeling truly connected. Tune in for a thoughtful, consistently engaging take on locality, where every discussion underscores the idea that the most compelling narratives are often unfolding just down the street.
