Pax Marila with Dr. Sara Howell (pt. 2): Lessons Learned from a Med Student who Built a Fashion Brand to Celebrate Women of Diverse Cultural Backgrounds

#60. This will be part 2 of my interview with Dr. Sara Howell, a fourth year med student at Howard University and the founder and designer behind Pax Marila, a brand designed to be both a safe place for women of diverse backgrounds and a hub of knowledge, pride and cultural awareness. 


In part 1, we discussed Sara’s background leading up to med school and starting Pax Marila, including her motivation to become a doctor and fashion founder. In this episode, we get to hear all about the details of what it’s been like building Pax Marila for the last couple years, how the brand has evolved since she started it, how Sara collaborates with women of different cultures around the world to bring a new collection to life, how it’s been juggling the business and medical school, her guidance for aspiring designers and so much more.
