Thank you for listening, leaving a 5-star rating or review, subscribing and sharing with your friends! So glad you're here for another episode, and I'm so thrilled to have been able to chat with Jill Dodd; a writer, artist, and designer from Los Angeles.  She modeled with Wilhelmina Models for ten years, appearing in Paris Vogue, French Cosmopolitan, American Glamour, Bazaar, Mademoiselle, and Teen among others. She graduated with honors from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and spent twenty-five years as a designer.  Jill gained recognition for bridging the worlds of men’s and women’s surfing as the founder and designer of global fashion brand ROXY. She is a skilled painter and was part of the Laguna Canyon Artist’s community and now practices in ceramics. She lives in Northern California with her husband and three children. She has written a memoir about her journey from Paris model to Saudi billionaire’s harem wife to multi-million dollar business entrepreneur called The Currency of Love. In the 1980s, Jill Dodd determined that her ticket out of an abusive home was to make it as a top model in Paris. Armed with only her desire for freedom and independence, she embarks on an epic journey that takes her to uncharted territory—the Parisian fashion industry with all its beautiful glamour and its ugly underbelly of sex, drugs, and excess. From there, Jill begins an eye-opening adventure that includes trips to Monte Carlo, sexual exploitation, and falling in love with one of the richest men in the world, agreeing to become one of his wives—until she finds the courage to walk away from it all and rebuild her dreams.
