    Ivy Insights

    The Outspoken Beauty podcast is an amazing podcast that I can't imagine my life without. Hosted by Nicola, the podcast covers all aspects of fashion, life, and more. It is a weekly dose of positivity that I look forward to every week.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is Nicola's ability to highlight all aspects of beauty and fashion in a relatable and honest way. She brings on expert guests who offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone who listens. The variety of topics covered, from skincare and beauty to pro-aging and health concerns, keeps the podcast fresh and interesting.

    Another great aspect of this podcast is Nicola's interview style. She has a chatty and relatable approach that makes you feel like you're sitting in the room with her and her guests. Her charisma, humor, and honesty make for enjoyable conversations that feel like spending time with girlfriends.

    A downside to this podcast could be the occasional lack of diversity in guest selection. While Nicola does bring on high-profile guests, it would be beneficial to have more representation from different backgrounds and perspectives.

    In conclusion, The Outspoken Beauty podcast is an amazing listen for anyone interested in beauty, skincare, and life in general. Nicola's passion for what she speaks about shines through in every episode, making it a must-listen for beauty enthusiasts. With its informative yet entertaining content, this podcast is a treat to listen to every week.

But what makes these women stand out to me is the passion and commitment that they have put into creating YSL Beauty's Abuse Is Not Love Campaign which helps women all around the world to deal with, learn about and escape abusive relationships.During the episode we talk about the making of "Don't Call It Love" , an incredibly hard-hitting short film that they released on International Women's Day and how they have turned the traditional idea of a fragrance ad on its head to help make the most important of points and educate as many women as possible.We also explore the lengths they have gone to to ensure that they can help women all around the world in the right way. (They work with experts and charities to ensure that they address each country's individual problems).Juleah also speaks from the heart about what to do if you find yourself in an abusive relationship and why you must never blame yourself!What really struck me when speaking to Juleah and Manon both before and during the recording was that this isn't yet another big brand "doing good" and paying lip service to impress consumers. In fact, I got the impression that the work that they are doing around IPV (intimate partner violence) has become larger and more vital that they ever could have imagined. These women and their team are fully invested and so incredibly passionate about the work that they are doing.If you'd like to watch Don't Call It Love, you can do hereIf you need help with IPV then you'll find lots of resources here

    In this episode I chat to the incredible model, content creator, and confidence activist Dani DMC. "Dani is a rebel against society by nature and is a firm believer that confidence is the gateway to true freedom. She's a firm believer in radical self-love, taking our power back and gaining full control of our minds and bodies. She utilises her social media platforms to push her message to her ‘Confidence Crew' and empower and encourage women to love themselves unconditionally and step into unapologetic confidence."During the episode we talk about Dani's childhood and how being bullied shaped her. We also talk about the expectations on women in society and how we can fight them, the meaning of radical self love and how we can start feeling true confidence in who we are and what we stand for.Dani is a force to be reckoned with and chatting to her made me feel energised, excited and ready to be a stronger person with far more boundaries.
