The Big Chop, Solo Travel & Positive Affirmations Ft. Tam Watkins Aug 07, 2018

Show notes

I’m joined by Tam Watkins, founder of Loza Tam, where she’s been creating beautiful satin-lined turbans and headbands for the past two years. Before becoming the entrepreneur she is today, Tam was growing up in rural Florida or as she calls it ‘Trump Country’ and talks to me about that experience & growing up with a black Republican parent & Grandparent (rare indeed)! One of the things I love about Tam is her passion for travel and learning other cultures… she shares how the idea to create Loza Tam came to her in a yoga class & how that idea led her to Ghana where she now produces her product.

We talk about her ‘Britney Spears’ moment when she cut off all her hair because it became too matted while transitioning, feeling boyish post big-chop & how one kindergarten boy made her cry. She tells me about the positive affirmations she practices each day: “I am loved”, “I have marketable skills”, etc. and how that’s changed her outlook. We discuss social media & mental health but also have to acknowledge how much YouTube helped us in our natural journey! We also cover Botox as a preventative measure, pedicures being more mandatory than manicures, Tristian Walker and her experience working on Bevel and Form, Turkish women’s approach to beauty, traveling solo and her experience in China, the importance of reading reviews, wig life and we bond over our love of Wendy Williams.

Beauty Secrets Vol 6:Ayurvedic Beauty,Your Dosha & Ojas Jul 27, 2018

Show notes

I’ve been spending time learning about Ayurvedic Beauty — an ancient Indian approach to wellness and beauty that I’ve really connected with. Everything in Ayurveda comes back to your specific dosha type. The three doshas: vata, pitta and kapha and they’re each associated with different energies which I go through in this episode.

I also share some knowledge on maintaining Ojas. In Ayurveda, Ojas is believed to be responsible for vitality, strength, health, long life, immunity and mental/emotional wellness.

Thank you to everyone who’s subscribed, rated and reviewed the #nakedbeautypodcast. I truly appreciate the support!

K-Beauty, Natural Hair & Beauty Editor Ethics Ft. Siraad Dirshe Jun 29, 2018

Show notes

This goes out to the true beauty junkies! Siraad is a girl with a 10-step beauty routine, who lives for Korean skincare and travels with her own silk pillow-case. She’s currently a beauty editor at Essence and she has incredible product knowledge but what I find even more impressive — her general attitude and approach towards beauty. She’s really inspired me to try new things!

We talk:

- how she graduated with a psychology and communications degree, worked in finance and then found herself transitioning to a new career in beauty at 28

- Korean skin-care & our desire to move to Japan and be teenagers

- The SWAGGER level in Korea & Japan & surprising level of black culture love

- Working with women of color

-Brands that don’t understand the Essence reader

- The ethics of being a beauty editor

- Me being a kitchen beautician

- Her natural hair journey

- maximum hydration method (not sustainable)

- the silk pillowcase & throwback memories to dominican hairdressers heating your hair

- Stanning for Pat McGrath - Dying natural hair & hair shaming in the natural hair community

- Oil cleanses & I finally learn what essences are (they’re huge in K-Beauty so they’ll get popular in the US in 6 months to a year)

- Sunscreens and eye creams & much much more

Products Mentioned:

Owning It Ft. Jacquelyn DeJesu of SHHHOWERCAP May 31, 2018

Show notes

“I want to be the beacon of hope for every woman who wants to put an idea out in the world.” - my guest Jacquelyn De Jesu, the CEO, founder and creative director of Shhhowercap

I left this conversation feeling so inspired! Jackie is just the best and I feel so lucky I was able to grab her for some time on the #nakedbeautypodcast. Before becoming the wildly successful entrepreneur she is today – Jackie, the product of two creative parents (a hairdresser & set-designer), was growing up in Baldwin, Long Island. We talk about the trends of yore she embraced in her youth: Solo pants (remember these?!), chunky highlights, French tip acrylics & fake tans. Jackie received attention at an early age when she developed earlier than her peers but she embraced her newfound curves and it allowed her to understand the power of female sexuality early on. We discuss the importance of the body pos movement, diversity in advertising and how she’s been able to create an inspiring culture for her company and her team. She explains how she knew corporate America wasn’t for her long-term and we discuss using your talents for your own brand vs creating for someone else. But she also keeps it real about what’s required to run a successful company. Balls drop and self-sacrifice is real -- but she was willing to deprioritize herself to see crazy growth early on.

We talk about the French approach to family and having a healthy marriage (her husband is also a creative and 100% supportive of her girlboss moves), and the importance of a good support system. Jackie explains that if you create a great brand, you will get funding and she believes in the power of design to create big business.

Jackie loves:

Having a personal trainer (an indulgence that makes a big difference) She will happily spend money on Sakara (100% plant-based organic meals) https://www.sakara.com

A Hippie with Edge Ft. Kate Seward May 08, 2018

Show notes

“I know that if I had kept drinking and doing drugs the way that I was, I would have died. There wasn’t really another option.” — Kate on her decision to get sober

On this episode of the #nakedbeautypodcast I’m joined by Kate — writer and lover of all things wellness. We discuss this universal phenomenon of women constantly thinking about their hair…. what to do with it, to dye or not to dye, etc. - why is it constantly on our minds? Kate gives me insight into going platinum blonde & I get her thoughts re: as a white woman how much she worries about cultural appropriation... We talk about a summer in the South of France breeding insecurity, going on her first diet at 10, and her super-chic Mom practicing ‘radical candor’ way before it was fashionable. Kate, who’s now 11 years sober, talks about the 12-step program and embracing the practice. Also stay tuned for a hilarious take on why my question ‘when do you feel most beautiful?’ is so hard to answer (54:15)
