Couldn't pay me to go back to being 20 for a day.

It does feel hard sometimes having every single thing be looked at and picked apart.

It has to be this number.

I will not go for less.

Okay, Haley, 2025 was a huge, huge year for you.

It was your first full year of motherhood.

You sold your company.

Some people really thrive in moments of big change.

Some people really struggle.

How is a big change period for you?

I think it's a lot of different things.

I don't think it's all sunshine and rainbows,

and I don't think it's all bad.

I just think it's, you experience so many different emotions and so many different things.

Selling my company

in the first year of also having a child it's like

there's a lot of change happening at once becoming a mom is

so far in my life the biggest change I've ever been

through I feel like a lot of women would probably agree

that the biggest identity shift

that you go through in your life is becoming a parent becoming a mom

and to be going through that

while also going through this insane business process is just it

was really interesting for those two things to be going on in parallel.

I felt really stretched in a lot of ways.

I just felt like this last year was a really big growth

and learning year for me and

when I look back on it now being 29 turning 30

this year I'm like wouldn't have changed a thing as many ups

and downs as there was as hard as it was for me to do all these major things at one time,

I really feel like it strengthened me in a lot of ways.

Let's talk about the acquisition for a second.

Road was only out for three years.

You had 10 products, which for a beauty brand is not a lot of products for this like big acquisition moment.

And the deal was for up to a billion dollars.

That was the number that you had in your mind.

Why?

I'm somebody who really believes in like what you say out

loud you know is very important our words are important the

the kind of manifestations we put out there into the world are very important

so from a very early on conversation

when we were just kind of like hey what would it

look like what would we want the number to be I

was like it has to be this number I will not go for less like

that is just it was a goal so that was yeah you know

that was the line I drew in the sand and the goal that I set.

Your potential customers in the EU have really been clamoring.

I've seen the Reddit threads.

When is RØDE coming to Sephora EU?

Can we make some news today?

So we are launching in Sephora EU in the fall.

Okay.

I'm allowed to say the fall.

Okay, amazing.

We're taking it a territory at a time.

Yeah, but that's a big one.

But I am.

EU is huge.

Yeah, the EU is huge and I am eager,

you know, South America is another really important one to me.

My mom's from Brazil.

Yeah.

So like being able to do that will be another,

it's another big goal of mine speaking of goals to,

to be able to be in all these places.

I was reading a story in Vogue.

It said when Road launched,

the product was better than anyone expected,

which just sort of struck me because,

okay, so you're saying that the expectations were low.

Did you feel like you had an uphill battle to climb in proving that you could really deliver?

So I understood that there was definitely a lot of side-eyeing of,

oh, here we go again.

Here's another brand.

Why should people buy my skincare?

Why should people trust it?

So I went into it knowing that there was a lot of that question mark around it,

And that's why I brought people so in on the process.

I documented everything.

I am such a skincare fanatic and nerd.

I wanted to show people that so that they understood that I'm really about it.

And I'm not somebody who's just going to sit here and try to peddle you a product.

Because I don't think that's necessary.

We focus on inviting you into this whole entire world that really fits into your lifestyle.

And I think that goes so far beyond skincare.

I think, how does it make you feel?

I wanted to invoke feeling around the brand.

I think that's such a good point.

And young consumers, I think they don't just want to buy a product.

They want to buy into or opt into a world.

They really want to support brands that I think align with their own values and their worldview.

What would you say are Rhodes' values in 2026 and how do they overlap with your own?

I do think that the accessibility and the inclusivity were two things that were really,

really important to me because I want Rhodes to be for everyone.

I never want it to feel like it's not for somebody because I really believe that skincare is for everyone.

And listen, I know when brands kind of,

when they get really hyped,

it can feel kind of like it's this like club that you don't get to be a part of.

And that's never been intentional with RODE.

100

Like when we've sold out of things and stuff,

101

it's not to make it inaccessible.

102

That's actually always like panicked me because I'm like,

103

I always want people to be able to have access to it.

104

I want to continue to take feedback and make the brand better.

105

That's what I think having a great brand is,

106

is you listen to your customer and you listen to your consumer and say,

107

okay, maybe this is not,

108

maybe it works for me,

109

but I need it to work for everyone.

110

I need it to work for you.

111

Can you share an example of some feedback that you received and you thought that's actually really smart,

112

we should make that change?

113

We had a formulation issue with our peptide lip treatment and it had like this grainy texture.

114

The texture, right.

115

You know, and when that happened,

116

I was like, I was distraught.

117

I was like, this happened right when we,

118

it was in the beginning of the brand too.

119

And our lip treatments were our hero in the start there was so much feedback of that.

120

And then people being like,

121

I'm putting my road in hot water to like melt the graininess.

122

I'm like, this is ridiculous.

123

We cannot have people,

124

because I think what makes me the most upset is I

125

would never want somebody to spend their own hard earned money on something that becomes not worth it for them.

126

To your point about inclusivity,

127

I think price point is obviously relevant to that topic.

128

And road like on the scale of skincare is pretty inexpensive.

129

What's your philosophy on pricing?

130

And do you feel like there's an upper limit,

131

a dollar amount that you would say,

132

like I would never want to make a product and sell it for more than X amount?

133

It really doesn't take much for a great skincare product to be great.

134

It doesn't have to be $200.

135

I end up reaching for the less expensive thing a lot of the time more than I would reach for,

136

I tried it all.

137

I was like, I'm gonna get the $150 serum and like I let them find the most expensive thing that I can find.

138

and see if it really is like that much more crazy of a product.

139

And I will say there are products out there that I've tried where I'm like,

140

yeah, I see why this is like.

141

Like name one.

142

I think that the company Plated is very innovative with their technology with the exosomes,

143

I think is very interesting,

144

but that is like very scientific and very different than,

145

you know, what we're doing at Rode.

146

We're trying to make solid everyday staple skincare products.

147

But I'm also really inspired by the really scientific brands too,

148

because it makes me want to push ourselves too while doing something that is

149

that innovative and scientific and still making it accessible.

150

Because I believe you can.

151

I really do believe you can.

152

I want to talk about what it's like to have your appearance be connected to your profession.

153

You're a skincare brand founder.

154

You have famously nice skin.

155

And like, what is it like

156

if you wake up one day on a big event day

157

and you have like a rash or a breakout or something like that?

158

I think people find that really refreshing.

159

I've always been really open about like I get perioral dermatitis pretty bad.

160

My appearance being tied to it,

161

it kind of forces you to have to be like,

162

just embrace every part of it.

163

You know what I mean?

164

And that's something, look, like genetically,

165

I've not really ever struggled with acne.

166

So I'm not gonna sit there

167

and try to pretend like I know what it's like for somebody who's struggled with cystic acne,

168

because that was never my experience.

169

Sure, I can speak to when I have like a pimple here

170

or there and how I might treat it and what I might do,

171

but that might not make somebody feel good who's dealt with cystic hormonal acne their entire life.

172

Right.

173

But I always, when people ask me,

174

hey, what do you think about,

175

what do you do for breakouts?

176

Or what would you recommend to somebody who has really bad acne?

177

I'm the first person to say,

178

you should probably see a dermatologist or like talk to your doctor

179

because a lot of the time what you're putting on it topically can only do so much

180

than what it can really do.

181

Growing up, were there women that you saw and compared yourself to?

182

Yeah, all the time.

183

I think being young and like entering into the modeling industry,

184

you're constantly looking at other women and comparing your body, comparing your looks.

185

I always see those quotes that say something along the lines of like,

186

comparison is like the thief of like joy yeah and I

187

and I really do resonate with that because I do think individuality is

188

so sexy and so cool and so important as I've gotten older I feel

189

so much more settled in who I am

190

and I know what I bring to the table

191

and you know my confidence has changed a lot

192

and a lot more too after becoming a mom some days are better than others

193

and we might have a day where we feel like nobody can touch me today

194

and then the next day be like I feel literally miserable and this person seems like they have their shit together.

195

Sorry can I say that?

196

This person seems like they have their shit together and today it feels like I don't have anything figured out and together.

197

So I just think it's a constant journey having sunken into myself a lot more.

198

Like I really have enjoyed getting older.

199

Like I'm so excited to be in my 30s.

200

I'm excited to turn 30.

201

I think when you're younger that sounds old and it sounds daunting.

202

Like when I was 19,

203

I was like 30, that's embarrassing.

204

And now I'm 29 and I'm like 19 was so embarrassing.

205

It's not even funny.

206

Couldn't pay me to go back to being 20 for a day.

207

Like there's nothing there for me, not interested.

208

Can't wait to turn 30 and continue to like see what's in store because it really only has gotten more enjoyable

209

and just felt so much better.

210

But of course, when I was young,

211

there was other women that I would see that I was like,

212

man, if I just had her size waist or

213

if I just looked a little bit more like that or if I talked a little bit more like that.

214

I think we all go through that, though.

215

I hear you talk about the inclusivity piece and I hear you being very thoughtful about this.

216

It's also like, you're Hailey Bieber,

217

you know, and you're selling this skincare line And you're using your image,

218

and I'm sure that there are young people out there who look at it,

219

and they're like, I want that.

220

Like, they're comparing themselves to you.

221

Yeah.

222

What do you say to those young people who might be kind of having

223

that bad day feeling because they're looking at an image of you?

224

What I say is that I go through it, too.

225

You know, it may not be for the same reason or under the same circumstances,

226

but it's something that I can definitely relate to

227

and I can definitely understand and it's why I talk

228

so much about embracing individuality because I think you're the only you

229

that is on this entire planet and that's valuable being yourself is cool

230

and being an individual is cool

231

and I think women have just like this beautiful intuition

232

and knowing and understanding and I think

233

that continues to become deeper as you get older

234

and you know yourself more and you find yourself more

235

and that's something that I would tell young people

236

and I would go back also and tell myself that

237

if you continue to listen to that and continue to hone in on

238

that and follow it even

239

when it maybe doesn't feel right it's going to get you

240

exactly where you were always supposed to go you've been famous

241

for a long time you have been famous for you know the family

242

that you came from the person that you married now as a founder

243

and a businesswoman and your own right like I'm curious

244

if it ever feels harmful or beneficial like both sides of the coin to have all

245

that history kind of be out there

246

and have to have people know your story in

247

that way I just think being in this position in general there's a lot of judgment you know

248

and I think that when

249

when you're trying to figure out who you are on such a big scale in front of

250

so many different people it feels really restricting to be able to like make really normal mistakes

251

or like do the wrong thing or say the wrong thing

252

and not be able to just naturally grow out of things

253

and like grow in front of people and yeah and have

254

that constantly be looked at in a microscope I'm really uncomfortable all the time in interviews

255

because I find and that my words get twisted or things get totally misconstrued.

256

And then it makes me want to close off and not be open with people.

257

And I've obviously, I'm in a position where

258

I want to share my life and I want to be able to be myself

259

and be open and be exactly who I am.

260

It just, I think it does feel hard sometimes

261

having every single thing be looked at and picked apart and people kind of like,

262

they create a story for you and it can feel really uncomfortable and bizarre sometimes because I'm like,

263

it's just not even real when people have made up their mind about something and about you,

264

they don't care what the truth is.

265

They just enjoy believing what they believe.

266

Right.

267

So trying to, you know,

268

I'm like, wanna defend myself and I wanna tell the truth because that's not really what happened.

269

And this is what really happened.

270

Everybody's like, okay, we don't care.

271

That's not the dramatic version.

272

Like we want this version.

273

So there's only so much I think you can do

274

and say to a point where you have to just kind of be like,

275

I need to live my life and continue to move forward regardless of,

276

people have something to say every single day.

277

Like it does not ever change and it doesn't,

278

it'll just be something new or different that they're saying.

279

How do I wanna like move in this life

280

and tell my story in a way that really just feels like comfortable for me?

281

Looking back on your 20s,

282

what are the most important lessons that you learned about life?

283

I'm always somebody who's actually been really blunt and really honest,

284

but like not super confrontational and not very good at like setting boundaries.

285

And I think that- a people pleaser for a long time.

286

Yes, still do, still do.

287

Like still struggle with people pleasing,

288

not sure that I'll ever just be able to,

289

you know, flip a switch and it'd be done, you know.

290

The last 10 years of my life has really taught me how important it is to be vocal about what you want,

291

what you don't want, what's comfortable for you, what's not.

292

And then being a mom really like really just sent it over the edge for me

293

because when I had my son it became

294

crucial to me to be able to have him see both of his parents say no we're not okay with this.

295

I spent so much time with people asking like oh look how are you doing?

296

I'm good I'm fine and not really being good and not really being fine.

297

I realized getting older I became so much more connected to people

298

that I cared about

299

and loved by just being like you know what actually having a really hard time with this

300

and I was like oh whoa vulnerability is really cool because it

301

actually really connects you to people and it really has only changed all my relationships for the better.

302

It has made me a better businesswoman,

303

it has made me a better communicator,

304

it has made me a better friend,

305

a better mom, a better partner, all of the above.

306

When do you feel most seen and understood?

307

When I feel like somebody is genuinely relating to my pain.

308

Obviously I'll use like my partner as an example,

309

my husband, like when we both can identify that something like hurts in the same way and be like,

310

man, I really understand that because like I've been through that

311

and I know how that feels and I know how hurtful that can be.

312

And to just like, again,

313

like connection, like be connected over that.

314

I think that makes me feel really seen.

315

Like understanding makes me feel really seen.

316

Like, hey, I really feel you on that and I really understand.

317

I'm sorry that that's the way that that feels.

318

I'm sorry that you went through that today.

319

To be understood, I think is like to be known.

320

And I think why that's so important to me is because I feel so misunderstood so much.

321

From an outside perspective, I get very misunderstood so often.

322

So then being understood makes me feel very seen.

323

Do you think Justin understands you the most of anybody?

324

I would say so.

325

Yeah.

326

That means you married the right person.

327

Yeah, I think so.

328

Do you think you're going to start another business?

329

I think I'd like to eventually, yeah.

330

I'm not going anywhere with road.

331

I am here and here to stay.

332

And that was another thing that was really important to me with being with Elf is

333

that you hear a lot of stories that founders,

334

they sell their business and they get pushed out or they leave

335

or they kind of just get a payday and they decide to move on.

336

And I was like, that's absolutely not what I want.

337

I want to be here forever.

338

I want to be in,

339

I'm so ingrained in this brand.

340

I could never imagine not being so intricately woven into it.

341

But I definitely have other aspirations and things that I'm inspired by and that I'm thinking of.

342

Do you want to tease anything?

343

There's nothing to tease yet.

344

And that's me being super honest like I'm tinkering with ideas

345

and I have thoughts and inspirations and things that I I would love to see come to life.

346

I don't have anything really.

347

There's no secret file in the office that we can dig out somewhere.

348

There's no secret file in the office.

349

It's just just kind of like little brain ideas that I'm thinking about.

350

I'm an entrepreneur at the end of the day.

351

I want to expand in business

352

and I want to be able to do more things but I'm definitely not in a rush.

353

If I was giving you a short answer like yes there is some more

354

that I'd like to do outside outside of road.

355

I'm excited to see what it is eventually.

356

Thank you.

357

Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
