Brittany Golden is a Los Angeles-based wife, beauty influencer, and founder of IGL Nails. The brand represents the next generation of press-on nails while encouraging us to ‘Never Have Fugly Nails.’ I had an opportunity to experience IGL Nails on set this summer while we were both working on a TV project that you'll hear more about in the episode. I'm really proud of what Brittany is building with IGL Nails and can't wait to have her as a merchant at this year's She Did That. Holiday Bazaar here in New York City! If you're ready to shop over 40 Black women-owned brands and be intentional about your holiday spending, this is the place to be on December 3rd. Grab your tickets at shedidthatholidaynyc.eventbrite.com and get into this super inspiring conversation with one of this year's vendors!

This week’s guest is none other than the one and only Felicia Walker of This That Beauty. You may know Felicia as the undisputed queen of skin care and beauty for women of color. Or you may be familiar with her work in the space through her now iconic platform, This That Beauty. Today on the show, we’re talking about her journey from beauty influencer to founder. Yes, founder! This month she celebrated the official launch of her new skin care brand, PHOEBE SKIN™.

Melissa Butler, is a Detroit native who has skillfully and strategically launched two start-up beauty brands, The Lip Bar and Thread Beauty, into nationwide phenomenons. Melissa obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Finance from Florida A & M University before going on to work on Wall Street as a licensed stock broker. Her journey from stocks and bonds to beauty is one that she describes as natural, not because she loves makeup, but because she was frustrated with the industry and therefore created a solution.  She wanted to create a brand that would be inclusive, non-toxic and easy to use so that everyone could see themselves as beautiful.

I'm so excited to share a really beautiful conversation I had recently with Antoinette and Shanti of Around the Way Curls. There's so much to love about these women. You may know them from their blogging and YouTube days, or you may have discovered them over the past few years with their podcast, but whatever your introduction to them has been, there's absolutely no denying their deep love and admiration for each other. In this age of cancel culture, it's really dope to see two friends who've committed to growing with each other in such a sweet way. Listen in as we dive deep into Around the Way Curls, a show that is rooted in friendship and self-actualization. A show that honors the profound and the profane. A show that reminds us that duality is a thing.
