In this episode of The Caring Economy, Toby Usnik sits down with Hazel Ann Felder, a Gen Z storyteller and strategist whose work bridges fashion, business, and social impact. Hazel shares how being adopted from China and growing up across the U.S., Singapore, and the U.K. shaped her sense of identity, leadership, and belonging. The conversation explores her podcast Clearly Becoming, her perspective on career transitions and personal evolution, what frontline retail and brand work taught her about human behavior, and why Gen Z is approaching ambition, work-life balance, and AI differently from the generations before them. Hazel also reflects on networking, mentorship, and what it means to build a career while still figuring yourself out.
