Do What You Love | Movers & Shakers With Adolfo Sanchez

Описание: Today my guest is Adolfo Sanchez, a fashion designer who has overcome incredible adversity while building his business. He was on the Netflix show, “Next in Fashion” and is from Orange County in Los Angeles. Adolfo comes from a working-class family, with both his parents being from Mexico. He got interested in fashion as a hobby, then worked at Macy’s, selling Versace. He climbed the corporate retail ladder, working for Gucci, Cavalli, and Loro Piana.

After starting his business, a fire caused him to lose everything. He had to start over and rebuild again—after his partner and business partner had walked out on him months prior.

As someone who’s worked with business people all over the world, I’ve seen many people want to give up if things aren’t going perfectly. That’s why I was so fascinated by Adolfo’s story—he sees challenges differently. He’s willing to do whatever it takes to keep his dream going.

In this episode we discuss:

How Adolfo got into the fashion industry and how he landed a spot on a Netflix show
How he battled depression after the fire, hitting “a really dark place”—and how he pulled himself out of it
The positive impact his mother (“a very strong woman and a two-time breast cancer survivor”) had on him during that time
The big turning point when Adolfo realized he was done working with other businesses and was going to completely build his own brand
What he did to pivot after the lockdowns impacted his business during Covid
His penchant for learning and growing, becoming better at business, and soaking everything up “like a sponge” even through the adversity

Adolfo says if you’re doing something only for the money, you probably won’t be satisfied—and you’ll have regrets at the end of your life. You’ve got to love what you do.

Quitting was never an option for him. “When a situation (like the fire) happens, it’s done—all you can do is grasp how bad the damage is and assess what the next step is…I’ve always just wanted to keep going,” he says.

Don’t miss his incredible story!
