Hayley Paige: Just Being Hayley Paige (Again)

Turning the Paige and revisiting one of our alum podcast guests, Hayley Paige, on what’s been happening in her life since we first connected. Soon after we posted her original podcast back in 2020, Hayley fought with everything she had, emotionally, intellectually, and monetarily to win her case and along that arduous journey. She discovered she had more backbone, resilience, and fortitude to Step Out of those Lines. Hayley never stopped designing for her own self, nor did she lose herself in the chaos that ensued during the next four years. She came out on the other side of this court case a winner, stronger than before, and it is because of the army of supporters, family, friends, and her legal team that she surrounds herself with.

Hayley’s advocacy for young women in business stems from her negative experiences and led her to testify in Congress in 2024 (Note: in a hot pink Elle Woods-inspired suit) on behalf of creatives fighting to maintain ownership of their ideas and intellectual property. Today, she is a speaker, panelist, entrepreneur, foundation CEO, wedding dresses/shoes/bags designer, and so much more (she also likes to say that she has the best taste in music).
