Checking In with : Elizabeth Stein Aug 03, 2020

When Purely Elizabeth founder Elizabeth Stein started her natural food company 11 years ago, the wellness world was much smaller. Nevertheless, the determined entrepreneur launched an empire of non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free, organic, vegan products with no business plan after starting her career as a health coach—and she has never looked back.

In our latest podcast, Stein sat down with co-founder Stephanie Mark and shared how she firmly believes it's okay if you don't have all your ducks in a row before you take a leap of faith and turn your side hustle into a career.

Checking In With : Alli Web Jul 06, 2020

If you’ve ever had a blowout, there’s a good chance you’ve been to Drybar. Whether you’re a little more “straight up” (the salon’s signature, straight with a little bit of body) or “old-fashioned” (old Hollywood vintage waves), Drybar encourages a playful take on hair. We spoke with Drybar founder Alli Webb about how she started her business from the ground up—she said Drybar basically was her MBA—and how she learned to hold her own and feel confident in her own shoes (and hair) along the way.

Checking In With : Garance Doré Jun 22, 2020

In the latest installment of our podcast, we spoke with Garance Doré. we spoke with Doré about her decision to step away from the fashion world a few years ago. She told us that the industry had not only stopped serving her, it was making her unhappy—she felt she’d lost her connection to her readers and to her roots. So she stopped going to fashion shows, stopped taking fashion photos, and channeled her energy into her blog and her original goal: connecting with readers.

Checking In With : Debra Messing May 18, 2020

Debra Messing is perhaps best known for the lovable, quirky character she played so well as Grace Adler on Will & Grace. And though we adore the show—and the reboot!—we also know Messing as someone who's not afraid to speak her mind on social media, and who stands up for important social justice causes. Messing spoke with us about how she's doing right now, because even though she has portrayed some fabulous roles over the years, she's also dealing with quarantine like the rest of us.

Checking In With : Tata Harper May 11, 2020

If you’re into skin care, chances are you’re into Tata Harper’s products. Her all-natural wares have always been ubiquitous in the skin care world, but ever since quarantine began and many of us began to step up our skin care game, her products have been all over the internet in a very real way. We spoke with Harper about her unconventional career path—from working in real estate to becoming a natural skin care guru—and just how that transformation unfolded.

Checking In With : JonBoy May 04, 2020

For our latest podcast, we spoke with the denim gurus Erik Torstensson and Jens Grede. We discuss managing their business—and life in general—right now. They acknowledged that retail and brands are hurting, and many are going into survival mode, but they're looking forward to the part when that mindset begins to shift and they can go back to focusing on new ideas. In the meantime, they're getting inventive, referencing the Swedish phrase "to make soup out of a nail," or to get creative with nothing and make something great.

Checking In With : Coco Rocha Apr 20, 2020

Model Coco Rocha is known for her lightning-fast poses and incredibly high-fashion editorial shoots, but she's also an entrepreneur (and a mom!). We talked about the future of fashion week, and mused over whether it would even continue after quarantine. Is this the end of runway? The end of fashion week? Big questions, and we can't think of anyone better to discuss them with.

We chatted with Ambrose about what the future of fashion will be after quarantine, and got her take on how all of this will affect the way we dress and how designers show upcoming collections.
