Listen "Coconuts in Cambodia with TVF's Sam Marion"
Episode Synopsis
Sam Marion, Sales Director for Apparel & Home Décor at TVF, shares her unexpected journey into the textile industry—starting with her mom's women's biker apparel company and childhood travels to fabric mills in Cambodia and Taiwan. From being a picky eater who learned to embrace new experiences at age 13, to learning from legends at TVF, Sam's story is one of learning and seizing opportunities. She opens up about the mentors who shaped her career, her transition to leadership, and how becoming a mom shifted her perspective on work and fulfillment. Sam also digs into what makes TVF's ownership culture work—including how the company keeps its core values alive through constant recognition, positive reinforcement, and trying to keep things light.
