Who is responsible if something goes wrong in space? Whilst we are a way off having an intergalactic police force, there are many laws and regulations specific to space.

Northumbria University is one of the few places which specialises in the subject of "Space Law", and in this episode we chat to lecturer Lauren Napier to find out more about the rules that keep space a safe-ish place, and also keeps out dark skies clear!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's guest is someone I had on back in August, 2019. At that time Texas-born Lauren Napier was enjoying the height of her beauty brand being loved around the world; she literally made the most luxurious makeup removing wipes ever. But then the pandemic hit and the New York-based business owner's supply chain was seriously affected. So I really wanted to bring Lauren back on to have a kind of catch up and find out how the past two years have affected her both personally and business-wise, and I wanted to see how she has been able to pivot. Thanks so much for listening; I hope you gained as much as I did from this conversation with Lauren. I love her energy and can't wait to grab a copy of her book. In the meantime be sure to follow Lauren's brand @laurennapierbeauty and look out for some video snippets of our chat over on my Instagram @beautymepodcast.

This week's episode is part one of a burnout miniseries. The first part is all about how burnout shows up in our bodies and the second part will focus on solutions we can try to make things feel a little bit better. So, in this episode I've invited six friends and former guests to send me their thoughts on burnout. You'll hear from makeup artist and host of the Seriously Madeup podcast Rachel Estabrook; beauty content creators Sarah Novio and Alanna Campbell, artist Phoebe J Martin, herbalist and period coach Natasha Richardson and Lauren Napier of Lauren Napier Beauty. I wanted to share their thoughts because since 2019, we have changed the way we look at burnout. It's gone from being something that might be frowned upon in the workplace, to a condition pretty much everyone struggles with at some time, particularly since the pandemic. And it can be incredibly damaging if we don't address it. I'd love to know your thoughts, so please tag me on social when you're listening, and feel free to send in your own voice notes over on Instagram @beautymepodcast. Please check out my guests on Instagram: @estabrookartistry @altogetheralanna @sarah_novio @foragebotanicals @phoebejmartin @laurennapierbeauty You can see more of me on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKuq1As9ifCJOxvPOv6w3wQ and you can also find me on Twitter @beautymepodcast and be sure to sign up for newsletter at https://beautymenotes.substack.com. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/beautyme/message

Kendra talks with Lauren Napier (@laurennapier) about Lauren Napier Beauty (@laurennapierbeauty), her journey from make-up artist to Founder, the no from the bank “because they didn't get her business,” to how Robert Townsend inspired her to bootstrap using credit cards, and a tax return to launch her brand. This past year she launched “Consider Something Better” to support other Black founders.  Lauren also shared a profound analogy on “Building Your Own Bakery” that is now my mantra and something all entrepreneurs should focus on when they are told NO or that will never work.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There is power in raw and transparent authenticity; not only does it empower you, but it frees others. CEO + Powerhouse, Lauren Napier of Lauren Napier Beauty, provided access to deeper levels of freedom in this refreshing interview. We went well beyond the skin and surface, to the the essence of our soul for during this conversation. For this episode, nothing was off limits-- politics, culture and the sacred rituals of beauty, were all woven together with the beauty and grace that only Lauren can create.     

Lauren Napier, founder of Lauren Napier Beauty, is no stranger to racism in her personal life and as a business-owner in the beauty world. When she first came up with the idea to create eco-friendly makeup wipes, she knew her products would be for all people, no matter their race—but, unfortunately, this business model isn’t unanimously practiced in the wellness industry. Lauren is on a mission to educate people on the realities of systemic racism and use her experience to help Black Women-led businesses get the funding they need with the Consider Something Better initiative. In this timely conversation, Lauren tells us just a few of her many experiences with racism and offers insight on how we can stand in solidarity and make a meaningful difference. She touches on the history of racism, policing, and protesting while offering tangible ways you can support, speak out, and be anti-racist from an economic perspective.

This past week has been very emotional, to say the least, and hopeful to say the most. I once heard Ruth Bader Ginsberg express that the pendulum of change always swings both ways. My friends, I believe that we are on the ascent of that change.In continuing our mission to share the stories of incredible, diverse, resilient, and inspiring women, we are proud to share the story of today's guest with you.Our guest today is celebrity makeup artist and the founder of Lauren Napier Beauty, Lauren Napier. Lauren has worked with some of the world's most famous celebrities, including Academy Award winners, civil rights activists, Olympic gold medalists, indie film darlings, Billboard chart-toppers, silver screen royalty, a Beatle, a Bond and even an American president. Let me play out a scenario that I’m sure has happened to you before: You’re going through your day, as usual, using the same mediocre everyday product that has always left you wanting more. Because you have never found another option, you continue to use it all the while wondering why there still isn’t a better option.Like most great entrepreneurship journey’s, Lauren Napier’s started with this exact breaking point. On a 13 hour flight from Dubai to New York, Lauren was horrified to see an expensive bag of makeup wipes completely dried out. These days Lauren Napier Beauty has been featured in Vogue, Elle, W Magazine, Harper's Bazaar, Essence, InStyle, Pop Sugar, Refinery 29. It can be found internationally online in stores such as Revolve, Harvey Nichols, Net-A-Porter, and Colette Paris. You guys, this girl, and her incredible products are everywhere.I hesitate to use the adjective fearless to describe any person because everybody has fears. But when you speak with Lauren, the woman has so much determination, conviction, grace, and grit, that it’s easy to assume fear does not exist within her.
