Melody Ehsani is a celebrated fashion designer based in Los Angeles and the Women's Creative Director for the global brand Foot Locker. Melody and Rich Tu have a refreshing conversation about how she turned a passion for justice into a creative journey through self-discovery and spirituality.

They cover a range of topics, including growing up in L.A. in a first generation Iranian home, finding God on her own terms, moving to China to design her first sneaker, and the unique challenges of creating for a self-owned brand versus a huge corporation. Also, they uncover a never-before-discovered easter egg on her classic Fearless Jordan 1 collab.
