No ‘Visions of Loveliness'—Picture it: It's 1991. You're sitting at your desk at The New York Times, when you get a call from the office of Condé Nast's Alexander Liberman. Alex wants to meet you for lunch at La Grenouille to discuss an opportunity: Si Newhouse has decided to launch the first-ever beauty magazine, and he thinks you're just the woman to make it happen. You're 31 years old. The canvas is blank. The budget is endless. What's your move, Linda Wells? For the women's magazine editors of today, struggling to keep the lights on by juggling Instagram, TikTok, marketing events, digital content, and whatever remains of their print product, this is a tale so far-fetched it feels like the stuff of an early aughts rom-com. But millennial editors' wildest ideas about the “Town Car Era” of magazine-making were just another day at the office for Linda Wells. Linda led Allure for 25 years, becoming a front-row fixture at Fashion Week—while also pioneering the cottage industry of backstage beauty coverage—and enlisting writers like Arthur Miller, Isabel Allende, Betty Friedan, and John Updike to write about … beauty. In 2018, she pivoted, restyling herself as a beauty entrepreneur, launching with Revlon a makeup range she called Flesh. Now she's back in the land of editorial, having a bunch of fun at the helm of the beauty vertical of Graydon Carter's Air Mail, commissioning articles on everything from psychedelics to orgasm coaches. We knew Linda Wells would be delightful, and yet she exceeded our expectations. We know you'll love her too.—This episode, a collaboration with The Spread, is made possible by our friends at Mountain Gazette, Commercial Type, and Lane Press.

It is a privilege to welcome TV personality, writer, and producer Kara Alloway to Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast! After graduating from Canada's McGill University, Kara was hired by Conde Nast's ALLURE Magazine in Los Angeles. Under the tutelage of ALLURE founder Linda Wells, she worked as an assistant West Coast Editor. Kara quickly became known for her writing contributions, sharing her perspective on the fashion and beauty worlds with a journalistic approach and investigating the topics honestly and objectively. Kara was recruited back to Canada and became editor-in-chief of INGEUNE Magazine, which under her direction, had the fastest growth in circulation in Canadian publication history for the teen target demographic. In addition, she also hosted a daily fashion and beauty radio show, wherein content included interviews with such icons as Stella McCartney, Laura Mercier, Phoebe Philo, Zac Posen, Diane Von Furstenberg, Bob Mackie, and Oscar de La Renta. In 2017, Kara Alloway appeared on the Real Housewives of Toronto.

This week it's a beauty news round-up; I'm talking about the latest print issue - the penultimate print - of Allure and dipping into the history of the magazine, and I'll be talking about the early reactions to Sephora's online store here in the UK and briefly wondering what Taylor Swift's visuals for her new album Midnights could look like. I had to dedicate much of this episode to Allure because I'm a longterm fan who's seen it change hands from founder Linda Wells, to former Nylon editor Michelle Lee, to the current editor in chief, Jessica Cruel. Discussing print and people of colour comes up and I'd love to know your thoughts on the conclusions I make. Sometimes it feels like the major magazines bring in people of colour way too late, which leaves them in a vulnerable position, as if they alone have to save the title. Let me know what you think! Tag me when you're listening over on Instagram @beautymepodcast or reach out to me on Twitter @beautymepodcast. I also give my thoughts on the latest print cover over on my TikTok, @charissekenion. I also touch on Sephora's arrival in the UK - for now it's online only and it's getting a lot of criticism, but I'm intrigued to see if they're going to bring in same-day delivery for us as well as the States - and I wonder what kind of visuals we can expect as Taylor Swift's album Midnights takes over the internet and makes Spotify history. At the point of recording Taylor had only released several lyric videos and one video for Anti-Hero, but this morning I've seen she's released a video for Bejeweled.

Help them to approach the unknown, the frightening and mysterious with a joke or a laugh - it doesn't have to be so serious. So before I'm dead Please get it into your head that the sky is not falling down and the king has got no clothes And while there are those who'll try explaining, it's best to see it all as entertaining So shed your worry, it was only draining It could be worse, it could be raining Before I go, I hope you'll know that dying's not so bad Everyone must go - one day, even you And while we hope for heaven and fret about hell, which is just such a pile, you know the measure of a life well lived is if you made somebody smile. The hellfire and damnation, it's such an awful crock you know I may never have been “saved”, but think of what I've saved: At the cut rate crematorium for just 800 bucks I'll be relieved of all but seven pounds and I'll remain with zero… fear and regret Before I go What I want you to know is that I love you in a place where there's no time or space And I don't know how, but I think it's true that when I'm there, I'm everywhere too Which means that I'll be here with you… So don't be sad, don't start complaining It could be worse, it could be raining Join the Mailing List at iwrotethissongforyou.comSign up for Wells' mailing list to be sure you never miss an episode!

Where do we go when we die? And what if we could go there and then come back to tell about it?

Second Chance Music and Lyrics by Wells Hanley ©2022 Look who's got a second chance, I'm back on the ground from the great expanse. I took a dive, but I've got a second chance. I just landed my lucky break, got the band back together for another take. I was "ciao", but now I'm wide awake. I let my life go completely receding to a far away shore. Now I've returned so sweetly, back in the flesh, and ready for more. I can feel my feet, I can sing and dance, I've returned to wearin' my shirt and pants, I've got a second chance. And I'm carrying a jewel, and I don't wanna drop it, I would be such a foo-el if I should ever stop making the most of this second chance! My days were numbered, I lumbered, feeling so encumbered by fate, but having dozed and slumbered, I'm back in the race, and I'm feeling great... There's a tear somewhere in the grand design that I should have crossed that finish line and kept on running, Lord how I feel so fine! Now I have got another shot, I've entered a bonus round, and I would never have thought there could exist this delicious twist in the plot... The curtain was closed, and the show was done, but the producer introduced an extended run. We made a pact, and now another act has begun. The show keeps going and going, I know it's gonna grow and thrive. I'm overflowing just owing to being alive! I am gonna survive... I'm living up my second chance, I'm gonna work this perk in my circumstance. I was revived, and I survived, my day has arrived, I'm gonna thrive, and I'm still alive cause I've got a second chance... ...and I know I never want to lose my second chance!

Ready to be Loved Music and Lyrics by Wells Hanley ©2021 I became in a blaze of light I landed here after a long, long flight And now I'm ready to be loved I am ready to be loved I went the way of the American child I played the game, when I was sad, I smiled But now I'm ready to be loved I am ready to be loved When the rain goes, there ought to be a rainbow somewhere After the pain I've known, I want to believe you could begin to care And that's a heavy hope to bear. I've felt so frightened that I've made myself small, I've said I was sorry when I was not sorry at all, And I am ready to be loved I am ready to be loved I've been bossed and double crossed, and I've been tossed around I've been stood up, and I've been let down, And now I'm ready to rise above, I am ready to be loved. I have pretended that I was not offended by your jokes on me When the laughter had ended, I searched your eyes, but found no empathy and that's a lonely way to be. Here I stand before you now I've been mistreated, I've been beaten down, And now I'm ready to be loved I am ready to be loved Oh, I am ready to be loved, I am ready to be loved.

I See You with My Heart Music and Lyrics by Wells Hanley ©2021 Don't be afraid that that I might not see you nothing could be any more untrue The beauty of light may have up and left me but darling, I still see you. Now I may not notice the clothes you wear or the style of your hair, or your face so dear Though you treasure the photos of the times we share that's not important here. These are the little things, but I see who you are so don't be afraid, don't even start I see you, I see you with my heart. Lately you cry when little things confound me and it lightens your load when I reach for you Your eyes give a glow that I can feel surround me and it tells me your love is true. These are the things I see when you show me who you are so don't be afraid, don't even start I see you, I see you with my heart. Every year there is a different style a brand new coat that's gonna last just a while a new kind of phone that'll help you feel never all alone I was told, and I did believe, don't judge by the cover, that the eyes deceive, and they do now I know it's true but no matter for me and you 'Cause we've found a different way and I see you for who you are so don't be afraid, don't even start I see you, I see you with my heart. I see you with my heart.

Here I sit staring out at a sea where I've longed to sail I feel inside that it's finally time to begin I felt safe beneath her shade, but now I'm not afraid of the wild wind. Standing on my own, I am learning to trust myself and the wiser ones inside who help me to grow (We're standing around you, you know...) So I'll answer to the call, it's now or not at all So here I go, it's time to go So I'm building a boat, I'm taking it far away from here I'm building a boat, I'll be heading so far beyond my fear And I'll sail my way to a better world and a better life someday Let the wind and sea come and carry me on my way (She's building a boat, she's sailing away...) I've seen a lot of love in my life, and I know that's true And it wouldn't be so if she hadn't have helped me along (You've waited so long for this...) But my work here now is done, I've stepped into the sun and I'm feeling strong. I know where I belong, and it won't be long. 'Cause I'm building a boat, I'll be taking it far away from here I'm building a boat, I'll be heading so far beyond my fear And I'll sail my way to a better world and a better life someday Let the wind and sea come and carry me, come what may. I'll be on my way, I'm on my way... (She's building a boat, it's going to carry her away, she's building a boat, she's going to see a brighter day...) And I'll sail my way to a better world and a better life someday As I turn the page, let the storm clouds rage, I won't stray, I'll be on my way, I'm building a boat, I'm gonna sail away (She's building a boat, she's sailing away) I'm sailing away

In the Garden Music and Lyrics by Wells Hanley ©2020 As I find myself here in the garden I can feel the Sun on my skin and of every place I have ever gone before here is where I've always been As I rest here into the silence and the wind blows the trees so easy I feel myself letting go and getting free Free from the lock-step of my bustling and the thought that life was somehow somewhere out there As I still myself and listen and breathe in the air There's a rule for being in the garden it's a simple one that no one can enforce: It's up to you. Free from the lock-step of my bustling and the thought that life was somehow somewhere out there As I still myself and listen and breathe in the air There's a rule for being in the garden it's a simple one that no one can enforce: It's up to you.
“ Yoga was one of the only places I didn't feel like I had to be an overachiever. ” – Linda Wells On this episode of the PlanSimple Podcast, I’m so excited to talk with The Wellness Warrior Linda Wells. Linda is a yoga teacher who believes wellness is your birthright and is on a mission to create a wellness rebellion. She uses yoga to help students develop resilience. Linda says that yoga found her in the most stressful times of her life, even when she didn’t know it was yoga. As a young adult, trying to find her way, she discovered Virupa yoga, a kind of restorative yoga that taught her to sleep. She didn’t practice yoga for a while, but rediscovered it with Leslie Salmon Jones. She loved the energy of Afro flow yoga and realized she could become a yoga teacher and wellness coach. Although yoga has been part of my journey for about 20 years, I’ve never had an in depth conversation about it on the podcast, until now. In part that is a sense of privilege related to yoga. I felt like I was sneaking off to 90-minute yoga classes when I should have been mothering or working. We unpack that idea and how yoga can be more accessible We talk about: making yoga accessible for different bodies, abilities, and time and financial availability teaching love, kindness, and compassion (including to yourself) befriending your body despite what dominant culture tries to tell and sell you practicing so you can age gracefully yoga as a quest to trust yourself checking assumptions about race, body size, wellness, and who can do yoga BIO Linda N. Wells, M.Ed., E-RYT 500 is The Wellness Warrior. Her mission is to create a wellness rebellion by teaching people how to assert personal agency by reclaiming themselves through adaptable yoga. Recognizing that stress may be an unavoidable part of our lives, Linda draws upon her in-depth study to help her students develop resilience in the face of modern life demands. Linda is certified to teach yoga at the 500-hour level. She holds multiple training certificates, including Trauma-informed yoga for youth and teens, Accessible Yoga for people with disabilities, living with chronic pain, and larger bodies. She teaches in various settings, from Boston and Brookline Public Schools, studios, to her highly-attended summer outdoor series, to universities and notable appearances in New England. Linda's formal education includes an M.Ed. specializing in Curriculum and Instruction from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA, and BA in Political Science and Economics from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. Linda is also a trainer for Resilient Schools and Youth with the Benson Henry Institute for Mind-Body Medicine. Additional certifications include The Institute of Nonprofit Management from Boston University and Reiki Usui Level 2. She is an alum of Northeastern University Community Enrichment Fellows, Citizen Schools Teaching Fellowship and the South End/Lower Roxbury Youth Workers Alliance Steering Committee. LINKS https://www.lindawellnesswarrior.com/ MENTIONED LINK https://melissawest.com/ Invitation to Brave Space by Micky Scottbey Jones Doable Changes from this episode: TRY 5 MINUTES. It’s easy to get stuck in the idea that to do yoga you need an hour or more to go to a class. Linda says that you can do yoga wherever you are in a few minutes. If you’ve practiced yoga before, try a breath exercise or a simple pose for five minutes or less. If you’ve never done yoga there are lots of online tools to help you learn. Check out 5-minute practice and fit that into your day—it can be an energizing start to the day or a great way to unwind at the end of the day. STAY ON YOUR OWN MAT. I love the idea of your yoga mat being your space, and what’s happening off it being somebody else’s stuff. What happens if you just keep pulling yourself back to your mat? If you stop worrying about what other people are doing, how you compare, or what they think about you on your mat? PRACTICE COMING BACK. Linda teaches people to come back to your breath, come back to loving on your body, come back to saying, “Hey, I can do this.” When you start to get angry or stressed or frustrated, practice coming back to your breath. When you start to get down on yourself, practice loving on your body. When you get overwhelmed, come back to “Hey, I can do this.” Notice what you are feeling in your body, and practice coming back.
