Every week we will talk to a selection of impressive people who are willing to share their unique and diverse stories with us. Now you might think: Oh no, another life-advice podcast? Don’t worry it’s not. This is 'CONNECTING PEOPLE'. A podcast, that focuses on the journey rather than the goal, celebrating thought-provoking people and anyone who strives to make a change. Don’t expect advice or a guide to a better life. Our journeys are all different in their own special way. We want to show that every story is unique and there is no right or wrong when it comes to choosing your path. Which doesn’t mean that you need to follow their success stories from A to Z but in hope to encourage you to believe in your own strength and skills. Our goal is to create a space for people to tell their personal stories, inspire and empower others to think outside the box. Find CONNECTING PEOPLE on Instagram @connectingpeoplepodcast

episode 5: e005 Rebecca Morter: Pushing innovation by giving a voice to emerging businesses
Listen to Rebecca Morter, a London-based fashion designer, consultant and entrepreneur.
After leaving her home country New Zealand and studying at London College of Fashion, Rebecca took the plunge and co-founded the experimental womenswear brand REIN London.
Though successful, REIN faced challenges because the old fashion model blocked the vital connection with the end-consumer and the feedback you get with direct contact. Rebecca wanted to bring change for smaller brands incorporating her understanding of design with her passion for sustainable fashion. And so LDC was born, having a positive impact in supporting and empowering others, whilst rebelling against the traditional wholesale route.
With LDC, Rebecca wants to ensure that independent designers feel a sense of community and wants customers to explore more than just the product through purposeful storytelling. With over 20 pop-up stores under their belt, LDC is going through a period of huge expansion.
