Mindy Sterling used the name "Robin Rowan" to enter the design world early in her career.
It was only after she became famous that everyone knew Robin Rowan was Mindy Sterling.
Many people wanted to connect with The Sterling Family, hoping their daughters or sons could learn from Mindy Sterling.
Mindy Sterling became famous through her own strength and hated going through backdoor channels, so she directly refused.
The few apprentices she accepted were all selected through rigorous screenings.
In the design world, there was talk that Felicity Sterling was the last apprentice Mindy took, but this wasn't entirely true.
Mrs. Sterling had Felicity learn design from Mindy, and Mindy taught her niece diligently - she was Felicity's teacher.
However, Mindy did not recognize Felicity as her apprentice.
She told Mrs. Sterling that she was teaching her niece, not an apprentice.
She didn't want to take family members as apprentices.
