141: Heather Thomson, Real Housewife of NY

Hey, if your guilty pleasure on a Tuesday night is watching Real Housewives of New York City, well you're in luck with today's guest and I have a smile on my face cause I've been a fan of the Real Housewives franchise for a while. I dunno if "fan" is the right word, and I just, I'm kind of addicted to some of their series, like Beverly Hills, New York, New Jersey. Aside from being a favourite cast member on Bravo's popular reality series, Heather Thomson is a philanthropist, entrepreneur, and fashion designer best known for launching the shape wear fashion brand "Yummy by Heather Thompson". Now as a working mom of 2, Heather's fashion brand was grown after her personal battle to shed the baby weight and find confidence-boosting, comfortable undergarments. I can relate to that. In marketplace that was anything but that, Heather took to her sewing machine and created just what she was looking for. And over the last 6 years she has evolved her brand with plans to expand in the future.
