Girl on a Farm
Ren Crawshaw is the owner and founder of Palehorse, a sustainable western fashion brand that believes in quality over quantity.
Ren is also living the western lifestyle on a farm, a longtime dream of hers, which is now very much a reality. But this dream didn't come without challenges along the way.
Like many entrepreneurs, Ren found herself taking a long detour to get to where she is, and even sustained significant bullying while attending fashion school. In her words, "If I had taken that direct path to get there I would just be another fashion brand". She has a fierce loyalty to her authentic followers and always keeps in mind that the number of likes or follows you have on social do not necessarily reflect success in your business. Empty numbers don't really mean a lot to her at the end of the day.
We cover a lot of ground in this candid interview, from the burnout of hustle culture to the current state of the textile industry. Ren is putting her stake in the ground creating a brand with an important message even if it takes a slow, steady road to get there.
