Secrets to success? No, thank you. Welcome to Work Friends, a podcast for sharing upfront and unfiltered career stories—the good, the bad, and the unapologetically ambitious. Because what’s better than a bit of real talk among friends?

EPISODE 48

Sophie Lopez

One of the biggest stylists of the moment, Sophie Lopez, got her start in magazines after some very persistent letter writing. And her resiliency continued to pay off as she transitioned to a freelance styling role. She built a list of incredible clients—including Kate Hudson, whom she’s worked with for two decades—built her personal brand on social media, and recently stepped into a stylist role for Kate’s Isla Gordon on Netflix's Running Point season 2 (where a lot of Argent can be spotted). This week, Sophie takes us through the real story of building her career—the ups, downs, and the many times she ran before she could walk.

Suneera Madhani

Suneera Madhani is fully aware that being an entrepreneur is one of the wildest career choices one can make. And yet, this unicorn CEO is on a mission to help more women build their dream businesses. As the former co-founder of Stax, current founder of Worth AI, and founder of CEO School, Suneera has a lot to share about what it means to be an entrepreneur, to shift from a founder mindset to a CEO mindset, and to—more often than not—be the only woman in the room.

ABOUT THE HOST

Sali’s Story

Sali spent a decade working in the Bay Area's finance and technology scene where she struggled to find work clothes that were both bold and practical. Options were stagnant, constricting, and lacked key functional elements.

Amidst her search, Sali read a study whose finding moved her to action: A woman’s ability to make a strong sartorial statement impacts her confidence, her career, and ultimately, her bottom line. 

It was then that Sali, an entrepreneur at heart and unapologetic power dresser, founded Argent. She set out to provide modern-day women with inspiring, practical, go-to resources to instill confidence in what to wear for their busy (often hybrid) lives. From then on out, Sali’s mission has been to help women suit up to level the office playing field and claim their seat at the table.
