Episode Highlights

What's in a name? “The name Wayfarer carries personal significance for both me and my clients,” Abbey shared. “To me, it symbolizes a passion for exploring the world with my husband, which inspired me to establish the company in 2016. To my clients, it speaks to the experience of embarking on a journey without clear direction, as is often the case when starting a business.”

Connecting design to brand story. “Through our design work, we aim to help our clients find clarity and envision their future, serving as guides on their entrepreneurial journey,” says Abbey.

What brand has made Abbey smile recently? Having recently returned to the U.S., Abbey has been buying a lot of American products. One that stood out recently was Billie Razors. She tells the story behind the smile during the show.
