Standing Tall with Abby Dufficy
In this uplifting episode, I sit down with my incredible sister, Abby Dufficy, to discuss her inspiring journey from struggling with her height to embracing it and creating a global community of tall women.
Growing up 6’1” from her early teens, Abby faced bullying and often felt isolated due to her height. She shares how this led her to keep herself and her life small for years, trying to avoid attention. But now, in her midlife, she’s rewriting the narrative. Abby opens up about how she found the courage to embrace her uniqueness, build a thriving online community for tall women, and launch her own clothing brand, Olim London, designed specifically to empower and celebrate tall women.
We dive into the challenges Abby faced in finding clothing that fit, the pivotal moment that inspired her to design her own pieces, and the joy she’s found in creating a supportive space where tall women can connect and share their stories. Abby’s journey is a testament to the power of owning your story, celebrating what makes you unique, and using your voice to inspire others.
Whether you’re tall, know someone who is, or just love stories of transformation and empowerment, this episode is packed with heartfelt moments, relatable experiences, and Abby’s contagious enthusiasm for life and fashion.
Takeaways:
- Embrace what makes you unique instead of trying to hide it.
- Build a supportive community to connect with others who share your experiences.
- Turn personal challenges into opportunities for creativity and growth.
- Celebrate your individuality—it can become your greatest strength.
- Use your voice to inspire and empower others who feel isolated or unseen.
- Invest in yourself by pursuing a dream that solves a problem you’ve experienced.
- Confidence comes from owning your story, not from conforming to others’ expectations
