On this episode of The Kara Goldin Show, I sit down with Audrey McLoghlin, Founder and CEO of Frank & Eileen—the women-led, B Corp-certified fashion brand redefining timeless style with purpose and profit. What started with a single button-up shirt made from the world’s finest Italian menswear fabrics has grown into a global, founder-owned business known for its ethical manufacturing, sustainable practices, and unwavering support of women entrepreneurs.
In our conversation, Audrey shares the early inspiration behind Frank & Eileen, how she applied her engineering mindset to fashion, and the pivotal decisions that led to building a brand with values at its core. We dive into how she navigated major retail disruption during the pandemic, why she’s stayed 100% founder-owned, and how she’s using her platform to fuel the $20 million Frank & Eileen Giving Pledge—supporting women through education and entrepreneurship. Her story is one of resilience, strategy, and staying true to what matters.
If you’re interested in building a business with heart, scaling with intention, or hearing from a founder who’s doing it differently—you’ll want to tune in. Now on The Kara Goldin Show.
