In this episode, I’m joined by Jill Donovan, founder of Rustic Cuff and author of "The Kindness Effect", and soon to be released book "Live Like Everybody Loves You." This conversation felt especially meaningful because I’ve been a genuine fan of her brand for over a decade. After years of wearing Rustic Cuff and bringing it into the ALIGN space, finally sitting down with Jill felt like a full circle moment.
Jill shares how she went from being an attorney and law professor to building a heart led, highly impactful brand that began with a simple creative yes. We talk about what it looks like to follow what feels life giving, to stay curious, and to allow passion and faith to guide the journey even when the path makes no logical sense.
We also dive into motherhood and entrepreneurship and why Jill chose to integrate her family into the experience instead of separating work and life into competing roles. She shares powerful insight on leadership and team culture, how she built an environment people truly want to be part of, and the emotional weight leaders carry when making hard but necessary decisions.
Jill gives a beautiful preview of her upcoming book, Live Like Everyone Loves You, and what it really means to walk into rooms already settled, no longer performing for approval or bracing for rejection, but free to actually see and love others. She closes by sharing her definition of a revolutionary life, one that is unencumbered by fear, no longer trapped in the past or anxious about the future, and marked by forgiving yourself quickly and fully.
