“I’ve always worked behind the scenes, so I was mad nervous the first time. However, once I got past the introduction bit, it all just flowed! Talking about that which you feel passionate about is a joy! I loved it!” At aged 55, Mia stepped out of her comfort zone to begin public speaking in September 2021. Since then she has appeared on panel talks for Burberry, Squarespace, Marks & Spencer, Soho House/Social Disruption, The Beauty Beat, TikTok, L’Oréal Paris, Elle x Tresemme. Mia has hosted two ‘In Conversation With… Mia Maugé’ talks, one at 76 Dean Street Soho House, and one at Little Beach House Malibu. She has spoken about being a social media disruptor, societal ageism, the impact of societal beauty standards, lingerie, her silver hair journey, positive ageing, and pivoting career in midlife, “Now I’m working my way towards getting that Ted Talk gig.. that’s the goal!”
