Velvet's Edge with Kelly Henderson
iHeartPodcasts
The Velvet's Edge Podcast is an invitation to explore the beautiful, messy truth that real growth is an inside job. Hosted by Kelly Henderson—a celebrity stylist and men's groomer who has learned firsthand that "looking good" on the outside only gets you so far—this podcast is a space for the conversations you don't always hear out loud.
Life has a way of knocking us flat, and Kelly believes there is purpose in that pain. She uses her own journey of plot twists to show that true beauty is found by going inward. On some days, you'll hear deep dives with therapists, healers, and other people who have turned their pain into something beautiful. On other days, Kelly and Chip Dorsch laugh their way through the weird, messy "WTF is this life?" moments, because growth is easier when you and your bestie can laugh through it together.
This podcast is for you if you've ever felt empty despite doing everything you were "supposed to" do. It's for you if you're stuck in a toxic relationship cycle and don't know how to get out. It's for you if you're in the middle of a total life plot twist and have no idea where to start. You aren't broken beyond repair. You are simply a human on a soul's journey, and even though we each have our own path, it's a lot easier when we have a little help from our friends.

A Man's Perspective: It's Not Therapy, It's Training (The Velvet)
How many times do you hear women voice frustration about "toxic masculinity" or "all men are assholes" and "men suck?" Kelly welcomes Connor Beaton, author, speaker and founder of Man Talks, to discuss a different perspective to all of these narratives and how he has created a world where men can actually heal old wounds and show up to be the men they either want to be or pretend they are. "Unless a man is brought on the journey of powerlessness, he will always abuse power." Connor sheds insight on why men feel so much pressure to perform, their carried shame and why many men don't feel the therapy world is a place to really grow and change. "Easy is generally not meaningful. Easy is not fulfilling. Especially for men. Do the hard things or the hard things do you."
