Not Your Average Designer

Send us Fan Mail (https://www.buzzsprout.com/2610190/fan_mail/new) Keith Lissner joins us for episode 3 Keith is a classically trained fashion designer, self-taught digital artist, and lifelong art lover whose career spans nearly three decades at the highest levels of American fashion.  After formative roles at Ralph Lauren and Perry Ellis, he spent nearly fourteen years as Executive Vice President of Design at Vera Wang before departing in early 2025 to pursue new frontiers, much of which can be seen on his Instagram @keithlissner We explore where Keith's love of fashion started, how he's serving his community now through the content he makes, and how it's all aligned with his purpose. So much of what he has now, he credits to his sobriety.  We also talk about the difference between dog walking in Bushwick and Manhattan, why The Great British Bakeoff is the best reality show, and share a few of our own ungrateful confessions.
