Introducing Season 14

In Episode 2 of Season 14, I chat with Emma Clegg and Molly Rogers — occupational therapists turned fashion entrepreneurs — who are challenging what it means to dress with purpose. As co-founders of JAM the Label, they’re helping to reshape the narrative around disability, dignity, and personal style through one of Australia’s most exciting adaptive fashion brands.From Emma’s love of timeless, practical staples to Molly’s playful flair for colour and print, JAM bridges their differences — and in doing so, creates clothing that brings choice, agency and joy to people who have long been left out of the fashion conversation.We explore how their work helps people with disability reclaim confidence and connection, how personal style shows up in the smallest of details, and how thoughtful design can do more than just look good — it can change lives.As a Sydney personal stylist, these are exactly the kinds of stories I love to share — where fashion becomes more than a trend, but a tool for self-expression and empowerment.What We Cover:– The story behind JAM the Label– How Emma and Molly’s personalities shape their designs– The emotional power of feeling well-dressed– Challenges and misconceptions around adaptive fashion– What it means to lead with empathy — in business and in styleLinks & Resources:→ JAM the Label→ Book your complimentary style consultation with me: www.MadeleinePark.co

In Episode 1 of Season 14, I chat with Helen Rydge — clinical psychologist, vintage enthusiast, and softly defiant dresser - whose wardrobe tells the story of a woman who grew into herself after becoming a mother. While others may have retreated, Helen emerged more fully. No longer dressing to blend in to the crowd, Helen dresses to honour the creative, curious, and caring components of herself.Through our chat, Helen shares how fashion can be an anchor — for identity, for confidence, and for connection. And how sometimes, the most powerful thing you can wear is something entirely for you.I hope you can sit back, relax and enjoy listening to Helen's story. If Helen’s story inspires you to reconnect with your personal style, I’m offering 15 complimentary style consultations for Style Stories listeners. Whether you’re rediscovering who you are or simply ready for a wardrobe refresh, I’d love to help you get dressed with more confidence and intention.Book your session at MadeleinePark.co and step into your style story.

In Episode 7 of Season 13, I chat with Nat Thaipun, who we may know as the winner of this season's MasterChef, but to her friends, she's Nat Wolf. Wolf like in adventure, energy and passion, Nat and I go deep. And as we peel back the layers to her story, we find this stealth strength is actually a mechanism for finding purpose. Cooking may have now centred her, but Nat still doesn't mind living life on a knife's edge. And her ambitious live large approach has given her the tools to creatively curate diverse cultural cues and masterfully turn them into something modern and visionary. Whether it's her love for vintage fashion, crafting a kangaroo lab or an array of meaningful tattoos, it's Nat's style to honour history for both her story and others, but keep it contemporary and always make it cute.
