You Can’t Flex On Me Luv, I’m Proud of You ft. Kimberly Drew Nov 18, 2019

Show notes

Over the past 7 years, writer and curator Kimberly Drew has unabashedly made a name for herself within the world of art and fashion. She’s already interviewed icons like Lupita Nyong'o, and Tina Lawson. She’s served bold looks on the runways of Chromat, and Collina Strada. Looking back on her career, Drew notes that “if I had come in with less love [for art], I wouldn’t have been as successful.”

That love first began in her hometown of Orange, New Jersey- a community that Kimberly describes as “culturally rich”. It then carried her to Smith College, where she studied African American Studies and Art History. Finally, it brought her to THE Thelma Golden (AKA “Beyonce of the art world”) at the Studio Museum in Harlem. From there, Drew went on to create the extremely successful Tumblr blog, Black Contemporary Art, which is solely dedicated to highlighting black artists and landed a dream role managing social for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, before going out to do her own thing full-time. Listen to this episode, and you’ll realize why the witty and enlightened Ms.Drew is adored by so many.

Show notes

Femmes, tops, bottoms & gender presentation — learned so much from this few minutes of convo with the ever-fascinating artist & thinker, Mandy Harris Williams. We also get into the preoccupation with body & weight & wonder what it’s like to be freed from the thought.

Grown Women Talk ft Angela Yee Nov 04, 2019

Show notes

A Mississippi Beauty Queen & PR Boss ft. Savannah Engel Oct 28, 2019

Show notes

If there’s one thing that PR queen Savannah Engel has mastered, it’s the art of conversation. “Throw me into a room with 300 people I don’t know,” Engel says, “give me two hours, and I will know every single person there, and be their best friend.”

You might argue that the key to such confidence lies in Savannah’s undeniable Southern charm.

Her roots in the Mississippi Delta, combined with her mother’s fashionable influence made for a keen eye and impeccable communication skills. That being said, fashion PR wasn’t always the plan. In fact, while studying at Southern Methodist University (SMU), Engel had a deep passion for refugee studies and legal work. It wasn’t until she landed an internship in New York with Michael Kors that everything changed. From there, Engel went on to work for Barney’s and First Access Entertainment. Then, in 2017, she finally founded her own firm, Savannah Engel PR. In a matter of only two years, Engel has taken on clients such as Markarian, Pyer Moss, Cherry LA, Missoni, and many more. All in all, she’s a boss, and she’s a force to be reckoned with.

Part of Something Way Bigger ft. Akili King Oct 21, 2019

Show notes

If you’re wondering what the new guard of beauty editorial looks like, look no further than Akili King. The 23-year old Chicago native and NYU Gallatin graduate has published a book of her own poems (titled AWAKENING), and worked for brands like The FADER, Milk Makeup, and Fashion Fair. All that being said, her current position as the Beauty Editorial Assistant at Vogue is “still pretty surreal” because, how could it not be?! Between making a name for herself within the beauty industry, modelling, DJ-ing, and practicing yoga, Akili is undoubtedly one to watch.

Feed Your Face Ft April Gargiulo, Founder of Vintner's Daughter Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

“What I was cleaning my house with was cleaner than what I was putting on my face. I had my head in the sand like a lot of people.” — my guest, April Gargiulo, on the genesis of her natural, performance-driven skincare line: Vintner’s Daughter

//

April and I discuss how her background in Napa Valley’s wine making process, allowed her to see this gap in the skincare market – she took this knowledge and molded it into a product to help people around the world achieve their best skin. The coveted Vintner's Daughter serum and essence transforms skin and hearing the backstory behind the 22 natural ingredients, it's all clear why this works as well as it does. April never compromises quality for profit, which is what makes her totally unique in today's beauty industry.

April’s journey with skincare dates back to developing cystic acne in high school and giving every luxury product a try. After some time she started to develop her first product (the process was rocky pitching one SKU) but she stuck to her North Star and successfully created products that continue to sell out within days of being restocked. I LOVED talking to April and getting to know what has inspired this game-changing, plant-powered skincare and I know you will too.

Products/Resources Mentioned: Vintner’s Daughter Active Botanical Serum, Vintner’s Daughter Active Treatment Essence, Alpyn Creamy Bubbling Cleanser, NuFace (electrical stimulation of facial muscles), Face Gym , Endermologie Body Treatment (Spa Radiance) Infiorie solid fragrance, Brother Vellies (April's shoe obsession), CAP Beauty , Onda Beauty

Listen To This Before Your Next Manicure - Leftovers Ft Sylvie Macmillan Oct 07, 2019

Show notes

“Try colors you wouldn’t normally wear. It’s not permanent, it’s not a tattoo. And you might realize that actually, that green or that yellow goes with your clothes so much better than the red or nude does.” - Sylvie Macmillan on how to step out of comfort zones & try new colors for your nails.

I had to share some extras from my conversation in London with super-talented nail technician Sylvie Macmillan. We talk about the debilitating effect of too many options at the nail salon, SNS dipping powder (and how hygienic it may or may not be), holographic nails, matte nails, and choosing a color and sticking to it with conviction! Does your mani have to match your pedi? And what’s breathable polish anyway?

CND Negligee (Sylvie’s go to color for manicures) Orly Nail Bonder (for strengthening) Clambake by Essie (perfect red) You’re Not Glistening to Me (Sylvie’s favorite universally flattering warm bronze polish)

Unapologetically Me Ft Julee Wilson, Global Beauty Director of Essence Sep 30, 2019

Show notes

"I'm a size 16 black woman with natural hair who's big and broad and takes up a lot of space. And I'm unapologetic about it. I'm dope." - my guest, Julee Wilson, Global Beauty Director of Essence

When it comes to beauty, Julee Wilson is all about showing up with authenticity and confidence. Her unique childhood within the Mormon community at home, and within the Quaker community at boarding school, inspired her progressive, open-minded and creative approach to beauty. Wilson continuously advocates for the representation of black women in the beauty industry, all while being a kick-ass mom!
