Naked Beauty

I talk to longtime friend and coolest girl I know: Gillian Sagansky, contributor at W magazine and international DJ. We discuss overcoming the intimidation factor of facials, growing up on the #UES, faux-camaraderie amongst fashion-girl DJs, watching boring documentaries to relax, sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen, creating a signature look and how having a partner who cherishes you can change everything.

Sarah Diouf wants you to know that Africa is NOT a country. I speak to Sarah about Parisian style, black beauty, the rise of the Kardashians, fashion tribes and the fact that Africa is a continent with 54 countries which means 54 different cultures. We talk about developing a signature look, how to keep your skin healthy while you travel and the influence that Africa is having on the fashion industry today.

Eating for beauty is a very real thing. I talk to Dani Cohen about her super-impressive diet that revolves around natural unprocessed foods. Her diet wasn’t always perfect though, she did a complete overhaul when she realized that the carb-heavy, processed food she used to eat was making her sick. We talk about bone broths, craving nut butters, bullet proof coffee, throwing out birthday cake and horrid food trends. I also learn to say no to agave! Hosted on Acast.

Motivation to get yourself to the gym. I speak to long-time friend and Soul Cycle instructor Rachel & Soul Cycle fanatic Alexis about the power of exercise! Rachel gives straight talk on accountability, how to cope with a daily sweat & spandex situation & how working out has allowed her to counter anxiety. Alexis goes deep on the cult of #SoulCycle & how a hot Turkish instructor motivated her to change her life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

All things natural hair from childhood to 2016. New products, a wealth of information, Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest are changing the way we feel about our hair -- it's never been better to be #teamnatural but that doesn't mean the struggle isn't real.

We also talk hair struggles, skin bleaching, the commercialization of black beauty, the genius of Pat McGrath, how to be on trend without being trendy, why all the beauty products in the world can’t fight with genes and Dalila preaches on the horror of wearing your lululemon athliesure with a full face of make-up and a Celine bag.
