Welcome to Circle of Friends

Welcome, excited to have you in my Circle of Friends!

Circle of Friends started as the Stoop Series, where I sit down on my actual stoop and chat with some of the coolest industry leaders, founders, advocates, and changemakers about how to contribute to a more circular economy. Beyond the stoop, it’s grown into a community for in-person events, even more conversations, and now it’s delivered to your inbox. 💌

We’re chatting about vintage fashion, investing in female founders, where to go antiquing, recipes and regenerative farming, and more sustainable gifts to bring a host that aren’t just a bottle of wine. Let’s just say I wear a lot of hats, but it all ties back to circularity.

Plus, paid subscribers receive invites to in-person Circle of Friends events. So if you want to learn more about how you can incorporate circularity into your life and work while making friends irl, upgrade to a paid subscription.

Meet Hilliary

I’m Hilliary, a sustainability consultant, event producer, vintage lover, and two-dog mom. I have a Master’s in Sustainability Management from Columbia University, and over 10+ years of experience in brand marketing for fashion and consumer brands. I started writing Circle of Friends (fka Something Borrowed, Never New for those who have been here a long time!) to share how easy it is to incorporate circularity into your own life.

I would love to get to know you, and thank you for your support. If you want to, please don’t be shy, reach out and say hi!
