About this listen

Glamorous Conversations sits down with Aaron Forston, creator of AOD (Aoede)—a music‑inspired apparel brand named for the Greek muse of “voice & song.” We talk origin story, why basslines matter, modeling truths from the runway, and Aaron’s push to build media that highlights positivity instead of manufactured drama. Plus: entrepreneurship realities, how couples can actually support each other’s dreams, and protecting your image when your brand is public. Real talk, actionable gems, and a whole lot of inspiration for creators.
