Connect with Samantha:

Samantha is an award-winning newspaper editor turned personal stylist who helps women in business make money using the power of their clothes. Being from a working-class background and becoming an editor in the elitist, male-dominated media industry, she realised how little support there was for what to wear for work. As she began using her wardrobe as a personal branding tool, other women in business started asking for her help. She is the host of the Hell Yes Style podcast and her book is published in March 2025.
