Preppy Podcast

Shannon Arniel and Meredith Carmody are the co-founders of Midspring, a preppy women’s golf and activewear brand designed to bridge the gap between performance and feminine style.
Best friends since childhood, Shannon and Meredith grew up playing golf together in Connecticut, where their shared love for the game—and frustration with the lack of stylish, flattering women’s golf apparel—sparked the idea for their brand decades later. Their journey spans friendship through school, careers, marriage, and motherhood, all while staying connected through golf.
Shannon brings deep fashion industry experience, having worked with brands and retailers including Barneys New York, Kate Spade, Evereve and Brandon Maxwell. Meredith contributes a strong background in retail and a lifelong connection to golf as both a family tradition and business networking tool.
Inspired by the season when golf returns and confidence blooms, Midspring was created to help women feel stylish and empowered from the course to everyday life.
