OLIVIA carr
FROM PREGNANT AT 19 TO FOUNDER OF the MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR BRAND SHHH SILK and the lessons in between
Let's introduce you to Olivia Carr: an award-winning storyteller, accomplished entrepreneur, and the visionary founder of multi-million-dollar global brand Shhh Silk.
Olivia is a no-secrets entrepreneur, a philanthropist and a social change-maker.
Growing up in a household affected by domestic violence, experimenting with alcohol and drugs from a young age, dropping out of school at sixteen and falling pregnant at nineteen, Olivia left her teenage years having already lived through seemingly insurmountable adversity.
A mother at a young age, experiencing post-natal depression and without formal qualifications, in her twenties, Olivia struggled to make ends meet with climbing debt and growing uncertainty. Despite it all, Olivia defied the odds to become a globally successful entrepreneur and best-selling author.
But her success wasn't without years of personal struggle: a decade of financial hardship, a fight for an opportunity in the business world, and an ongoing personal battle with anxiety and OCD traits.
Today, Olivia is passionate about mentoring other entrepreneurs in business and has forged a brand synonymous with giving back, inspiring people, and changing lives.
Her incredible narrative embodies resilience, determination, and even the alluring charm of Hollywood. Amidst her inspiring journey, she fearlessly embraces moments of vulnerability that resonate with everyone's core.
Olivia's storytelling is captivating and immerses audiences in a world where adversity becomes a catalyst for transformation, opportunity and achievement.
With every story, she crafts a tapestry of triumph, vividly illustrating strength and transformation. Through her words, Olivia fearlessly uncovers the depths of her own journey, revealing both the scars and victories, ultimately leaving listeners empowered and inspired.
Her storytelling is not just a narrative; it's a call to action for all who have the privilege to listen.
Olivia's ability to share vulnerably is a beacon of light, illuminating the path for others to find their own inner strength.
Olivia is a storyteller whose words are not confined to pages or stages, but rather, they live on in the hearts of those who hear them.
Olivia Carr is a force, a testament to the power of the human spirit, and a reminder of the transformative power of developing a self-made mindset.
