-We live in a society where men traditionally ran things: they were day-to-day managers, they ran companies. We women have adapted to the men's way of doing business.

But now that more and more women are joining us, we are bringing feminine energy to work life, says Susan Holzweiler in a clip from the podcast posted on Instagram.
-More easier
Brought to tears

-You have so much energy! Because of that energy, you will move to those degrees outside the Norwegian box. You are very diverse in the way you do things.

-It was so magical with all the amazing clothes. I heard one of the models say: “Thank you so much for choosing me,” Martha Louise says, holding back tears.
She takes a short break to wipe away her tears.

Holzweiler started with scarves on a roll and has grown into Norway's only large-scale fashion house. In 2022, Chinese owners joined the team, and international expansion into China, the United States and the United Kingdom is expected soon.
The brand already has several stores here at home. They recently opened a store in Copenhagen, and now it's London's turn.
