Plus, drawing on her years working at Sephora, she compares French and American beauty standards, from skincare and “baby Botox” to perfectly polished beauty versus the French preference for leaving something a little imperfect.Resources:Bringing Up Bébé by Pamela DruckermanDon't forget to subscribe, rate & review and follow us on Instagram @coucou.pod coucou Podcast WebsiteProduced by NOVA

We did an episode about death. Stay with us, you're going to leave this one knowing exactly what to text a friend who's going through it, which is more than most of us have ever known. Brad Wolfe runs Reimagine, the largest end-of-life gatherings in the country, a quarter of a million people, and it started with him bringing a guitar into his friend Sara's hospital room. He told us why "let me know if there's anything I can do" never works, why you should take the question mark off your check-in text, and why the goal was never saying the perfect thing, it's showing up again after you've said the wrong one. Becca gets into the people who didn't show up to the funeral. We get into why year two is worse than year one, and why nobody warns you about that. Brad's music: @bradwolfemoon, he's playing live in Seattle on Keltie's book tour.

Karissa Bodnar had a dream job at L'Oréal when a close friend died from cancer at age 24. It shook her up and made her reassess what she really wanted to do with her life. The answer? Build her own beauty business with a mission of “giving back.”The problem? Nobody seemed to want to carry her products. She pitched Sephora, Nordstrom, Ulta, and others—and kept hearing no.She stuck it out, pouring tens of thousands of dollars of her own savings into it, and worked a full-time job to fund the formulation of new cosmetics.Two years in, another life-changing event. Karissa posted a video of herself teaching make-up application to domestic violence survivors, and it went viral.In this episode Karissa explains why mission alone will never save a bad product, how scarcity helped her build a better company, why she resisted raising too much money, and how she turned a deeply personal loss into one of the most distinctive brands in beauty.What You'll Learn:How Karissa's childhood experimenting with fruits and flowers led her to researching and formulating her own makeupHow Karissa's experiences at Nordstrom and Sephora set her up for a plum job in product developmentThe importance of attracting an influential mentor or guide to career development, as Karissa did at L'OrealHow Karissa developed her unique line — like false eyelashes for people who had lost their natural lashes during cancer treatmentWhy the decision to keep sales DTC and ONLY online can be a great business moveWhy Karissa believes “scarcity drives focus”How to handle operations when sales explodeWhy mission helps customer loyalty — but performance drives the initial and repeat purchasesTimestamps:05:30 – Making makeup in the kitchen at age 10 and Karissa's first steps into research08:55 – Learning the beauty business from the ground up11:22 – How Karissa landed her dream job in product development at L'Oréal14:48 – The career lessons that got Karissa noticed at L'Oréal22:03 – How a tragedy made Karissa leave a dream job to start a company “with purpose”31:36 – The one-person-at-a-time marketing strategy33:01 – The viral moment that changed Thrive Causemetics37:06 – Why failing to raise money became an advantage42:33 – Mission versus product: which really matters?44:34 – Why Thrive Causemetics stayed direct-to-consumerThis episode was produced by Sam Paulson with music by Ramtin Arablouei.

Jackie Combs is a leading family law attorney who represents high-net-worth individuals, celebrities and professional athletes in complex divorce, custody and prenuptial matters.In this episode, Jackie joins me to talk about the intersection of money, relationships and power—and what she's learned from seeing marriages unravel when the stakes are incredibly high. We get into what wealthy couples actually fight about, the most expensive relationship mistakes people make, financial infidelity and the surprising ways it shows up, and how to have honest conversations about money with your partner. We also break down prenups: the biggest myths, where negotiations go wrong, and what people should understand before signing one. Plus, Jackie explains why every woman should have access to her own cash, how to protect yourself financially if you're not married, when “separate” accounts may not actually be separate, the rise of gray divorce, and the one thing everyone should know before getting married.You can find Jackie at @love.richer on InstagramThanks to my sponsors:Visit sephora.com or your local Sephora store to shop Dae's Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream.Head to justaddbuoy.com/well and use code WELL to get 31% off the Liquid Electrolyte Discovery set.Visit parollive.com/WELL and use code WELL at checkout for 20% off your first purchase.Head to dose daily.co/WELL to get 35% off your first subscriptionGet $25 off your first purchase when you go to therealreal.com/well.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Welcome to another edition of Retail Roundup. This is your weekly brief helping retail leaders decode the biggest shifts in retail, AI, and commerce. In this week's episode, Jeremy Goldman sits down with Kimberly Morgan (CEO & Founder, The Fashion Tech Exec) and Ricardo Belmar (Founder, Retail Razor) to unpack the trade pressures, AI shifts, and brand loyalty questions reshaping retail this week. INSIDE THE EPISODE: CANADA's TARIFFS ARE FORCING A DIVERSIFICATION RECKONING Canada's new tariffs are pushing brands to ask how much revenue they can safely risk on a single retail account like Ulta, Sephora, or Walmart. The panel argues that the same risk is already playing out with shoppers. Once someone trades down to a cheaper brand, they rarely trade back. AI IS MOVING UPSTREAM IN SHOPPING, AND NO ONE OWNS IT YET Shoppers are increasingly starting their search in ChatGPT or Claude instead of a retailer's own site, and Anthropic's new agent blueprints are accelerating that shift. The panel agrees there is no one platform anymore, and argues retailers need to focus on being discoverable everywhere, rather than trying to control where the search starts. ANTHROPOLOGIE's NIKE BET IS A MASTERCLASS IN CATEGORY EXPANSION A 30% jump in customers searching Anthropologie for sneakers led the retailer to add Nike, its largest footwear brand yet. The panel argues curated expansion like this builds loyalty, while growth without focus confuses shoppers. Listen above for the full conversation on the trends making us rethink retail this week.

Sephora is testing monthly exclusive product drops on TikTok Shop, giving the beauty retailer another way to create demand and build community around new products. Chris Walton and Shelley Huff discuss how TikTok Shop differs from Amazon, and why the platform may be more valuable for creating demand than simply capturing it.

Dr. Marnie Nussbaum is a board-certified dermatologist, Clinical Instructor of Dermatology at Weill Cornell, and leading expert in non-invasive aesthetic rejuvenation, known for her natural approach to treating and preventing the signs of aging.In this episode, we're answering so many of the burning skin questions I feel like we all have. How do you actually bank collagen—and when should you start? Which lasers are worth doing, what does each one actually do, and how do you know which one is right for you? What's better: microneedling or Clear + Brilliant? And what can you actually do about chest wrinkles?Dr. Nussbaum breaks down what's happening beneath our skin as we age, how to address skin laxity and the deeper layers of the face, why daily maintenance can matter more than a big intervention, and what she recommends starting in your 20s. We also get into peptides, PDRN, exosomes—and why she thinks the science isn't quite there yet—plus the treatments she believes are actually worth your time and money.And because Marnie is incredibly fun, direct, and refreshingly opinionated, we also get into what she learned from seeing celebrity skin up close, why she prefers certain drugstore products to luxury skincare, and plenty of beauty hot takes along the way.You can find Dr. Nussbaum at @drmarnienussbaum on InstagramThanks to my sponsors:Go to CLEARSTEM.com/WELL and use code WELL at checkout to get 15% off your first order.Go to armra.com/WELL or enter WELL to get 30% off your first subscription order.

Rejection is part of business, leadership, and life. Whether you didn't get the promotion, the client said no, your idea wasn't chosen, or an opportunity went to someone else, it can sting. But a “no” doesn't have to shake your confidence or make you question your value.In this episode, I share practical ways to bounce back from rejection, learn from it, and keep moving forward. Because rejection is information, not a verdict on who you are. And remember: you're not for everyone, and you're not supposed to be.You'll learn how to:Separate rejection from your identity and remember who you areFeel the disappointment without creating a bigger story around itGet curious about what you can learn from the experienceAsk for feedback without defending yourselfMake your next move instead of letting one “no” cause you to retreatReframe rejection as evidence that you're stretching, taking risks, and putting yourself in the arenaThe goal isn't to avoid rejection. It's to trust yourself enough that rejection doesn't stop you from making the next ask.

My stomach in my throat, I was unable to get the words out (in spite of being in a senior leadership role). Then, I heard my boss shut down the meeting. My heart sank. I was mortified. She pulled me aside and said, "You didn't trust your gut. You could've tabled the meeting like I did."Why didn't that option occur to me in the moment? Why did I feel like I needed permission?That was the day I set out to change. I began a journey of personal growth to discover the root of the problem. Once I did, I wanted every woman to experience that same freedom.I'm now on a mission to silence self-doubt in 10 million women in 10 years by giving them simple strategies to speak up and ask for what they want in the boardroom and beyond, resulting in more clients, job promotions, and negotiation wins.Companies like NASA, Netflix, Google, and Sephora have been propelled toward more effective communication skills through my signature framework, The Confidence Cocktail™.This is your invitation to step into your most confident self so you can catapult your career!

Remarkable Retail Episode 311 welcomes guest co-host and longtime friend of the pod Anne Mezzenga, Founder & CEO of Retail Field Report, joining Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc on mic and on camera.Anne opens with her new venture, launched in March as an evolution of the work she built at Omni Talk Retail with co-founder Chris Walton. Retail Field Report takes a journalist's lens rather than an analyst's — working shifts in stores, interviewing executives and walking floors to learn what's actually happening inside retail organizations, not what the headlines claim.The news opens on a shaky macro backdrop: diesel at a four-year high, the priciest Labor Day gas in a year, worse still across Europe, and a Fed narrative that has flipped from cuts to a 62% market-implied probability of at least two hikes by year-end. Michael adds the Canadian view — reciprocal tariffs, shelved US liquor and a tourism reversal after June's 5% bump in cross-border travel. Anne reports from the field: once fuel, healthcare and food are covered, the discretionary spending big-box retailers count on is running dry.On earnings, Steve unpacks Five Below's five straight quarters of double-digit comps, 23% revenue growth, its move past 2,000 stores and a rare guidance raise. Victoria's Secret posts a 9% comp; Anne credits store consistency, omnichannel execution and strength in PINK and beauty, and the pair explore whether GLP-1s — increasingly prescribed alongside hormone replacement therapy — are quietly reshaping apparel and beauty demand. Lululemon disappoints, with comps down 9% and the Americas down 12% as Heidi O'Neill steps in as CEO; Anne argues the brand needs a sharper point of view and less rinse-and-repeat product. At Kohl's, Steve flags a second straight quarter of Sephora underperforming the rest of the store.The centerpiece is Anne's work as a flex retail associate, booking shifts through the Reflex app in cities across the US: point-of-sale systems so intuitive that training is nearly obsolete, twelve strangers running a warehouse sale that moved 3,000 customers in a single shift, and hospitality-only roles at Longchamp in Boston and Sézane in San Francisco, evidence that mid-tier retailers are putting real P&L dollars into the welcome.The trio then debates Anthropic's open-source Claude Commerce Agents — throttled assortments in agentic pilots, returns exposure, and grocery shoppers splitting weekly lists across banners by price. Anne walks Target stores with executives and lands bullish on the Bullseye, while Steve sizes up Shein's Hong Kong listing at roughly $27 billion against its one-time $100 billion valuation.On the radar screens: Quince's rumored raise and brick-and-mortar ambitions (Steve's skeptical the assortment translates), and Michael on JBS, the world's biggest meat processor, Brazilian beef imports, and whether beef can price itself out of the grocery basket for good. Registration is open for a special webinar featuring Steve in conversation with Placer AI's Head of Analytical Research RJ Hottovy. From changing shopping patterns to emerging market opportunities, shifting consumer demand continues to reshape the industry. So don't miss this data-driven session unpacking the most important trends defining today's marketplace and the strategies leading brands are using to win retail's future.

It's another episode of the HonestAF Show, and this week we're keeping it tight! We're talking all the things, from Sephora favorites and beauty finds to Macy Gray and plenty of totally honest conversations you've come to expect from the show.

Fragrance continues to dominate the beauty sector in 2026, but it's increasingly showing up as a differentiator in other sectors like personal care and household essentials.This week on the Modern Retail Podcast, special projects editor Melissa Daniels speaks with Diana Melencio, general partner at XRC Brand Capital Fund, about the ways companies are using fragrance to set themselves apart.“On the shelves of Target and Walmart in the traditional laundry and household cleaning aisles, you're going to start seeing more premium products that have that differentiated scent architecture," Melencio said.Melencio, who is actively looking to invest in the space, has looked at the growth of fragrance and highlights how companies like genderless fragrance company DedCool and sanitizer brand Touchland are commanding elevated prices and prime retail spots in places like Sephora. At the same time, legacy companies like Unilever are ramping up their fragrance opportunities while trying to ensure that they're not alienating price-conscious consumers.XRC's research shows that fragrance grew 15% in mass and 5% in prestige in 2025, which outpaces every other beauty segment. Melencio and Daniels discuss the ins and outs of why fragrance has become so popular and how brands across categories are looking to capitalize on the trend.Their conversation gets into: Why price-conscious consumers are willing to pay a premium for elevated fragrances The challenges that conglomerates have in innovating around scent-based products compared to startups What some of the trendiest scents are in 2026 and how perfumers suss out what's the next big hit

Sarah Creal has spent decades behind the scenes of the beauty industry, developing some of its most iconic products and working with some of the biggest names in beauty—including spearheading the collaboration between Victoria Beckham Beauty and Augustinus Bader. Now, she's building a brand specifically for women over 40, a demographic she believes the beauty industry has largely misunderstood, underrepresented and, in many cases, ignored.In this episode, Sarah joins me for a very honest conversation about beauty, aging and what women actually want as they get older. We talk about what she learned from surveying thousands of women over 40, why so many products are still formulated and marketed with much younger women in mind, tokenism and representation in beauty, and why “aging gracefully” can feel like yet another impossible standard women are expected to live up to.We also get very practical: the biggest mistakes we make in our beauty routines, what actually causes makeup to pill, the three products every woman should have in her makeup bag, why the idea that we should wear less makeup as we age is a myth, the most overrated beauty trends, what makes makeup look expensive, and how to get that elusive “rich girl skin.” Plus, Sarah shares some of the insider secrets she's learned from decades of developing beauty products—and what separates a genuinely great formula from one that's mostly marketing.You can find Sarah at @sarah.creal on InstagramThanks to my sponsors:Visit http://get.justthrivehealth.com/pages/well for a free 90-day supply of their new Digestive Bitters when you start a 90-day Just Thrive probiotic subscription.Head to paleovalley.com/well or use code well at checkout for 15% off your first purchase.Use code ARIELLE15 for $15 off your first purchase at thirdlove.comTry Salt and Stone's discovery set to find your signature scent - Go to SaltandStone.com/WELL and use code WELL at checkout for 15% off your first order.

In this week's episode I sat down with Steffi Gonzalez. Steffi is a beauty, travel, lifestyle creator and model redefining disability representation. The first disabled Latina creator to join Sephora Squad, she has partnered with brands including Sephora, Rare Beauty, Disney, Aerie, and Amazon. Through her acclaimed series, My Normal Is Not Your Normal, she challenges perceptions and creates visibility for the everyday experiences of disability.We discuss re-defining access to accessibility, the power and responsibility of representation on social media, how there is no one definition of beauty and much, much more.

Before she became Lady London, Zaire Stewart was a fly toddler exploring New York City's unique beauty culture. At just three years old, she was being carted to Dominican hair salons, getting her hair washed and pressed by the same women she still visits today. Her mother kept her dapper in DKNY and Moschino as they traveled between the Bronx and New Jersey. Greatly influenced by the beauty and brilliance of the women in her family, an aunt with an interest in global politics and anti-apartheid messaging recommended her name; it's no wonder Lady London is such a cultural force. In 2018, Lady London developed an interest in music, built on a foundational love of literature from childhood to college. Lady London joined Naked Beauty to talk about how she discovered she had presence and how she wielded it into a nearly decade-long career and fanbase of more than a million people.During our conversation, we talked about how she learned to maintain her composure as a public figure and how her confidence can't be shaken by industry execs or online trolls. Lady London shares that her confidence was well earned, as it took her some time to accept that she could be beautiful and smart without downplaying one or the other. We get some tips on how to model that self-assurance during the Show & Tell portion of the show, when Lady London demonstrates how not to be baited. Of course, we learn all about her beauty rituals, tips, and favorite perfumes. We got other advice from Lady London, including how she mentors women coming into the industry behind her, and what she's learned from the hip-hop legend pouring into her. Lady London is a creative force, poet, rapper, executive producer, mentor, and hobby enthusiast.

There's an interesting tension happening in the beauty industry today around makeup.  Last year, consumer beauty publications and industry executives heralded 2026 as the year bold, maximalist makeup would return. Top publications predicted a shift away from the persistent "clean girl aesthetic" that entered the zeitgeist around 2021 toward bolder, brighter makeup. Meanwhile, executives from Sephora, Ulta Beauty and Revlon told Glossy they were betting big on a return to more expressive makeup in 2026. But that hasn't happened at scale – at least not yet. Instead, sales at conglomerates that report earnings, like L'Oréal Group and E.l.f. Beauty, tell us that top-selling categories in 2026 remain the mainstays of "no-makeup makeup," like lip gloss, balm and liner; complexion products, like tinted sunscreen, blush, bronzer, and setting spray; and mascara.  For today's episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, host Lexy Lebsack sat down with veteran celebrity makeup artist Jamie Greenberg to unpack exactly where makeup is headed next.  Greenberg has been a working makeup artist for more than 20 years. Her client list today includes Rashida Jones, Kaley Cuoco, Chelsea Handler, Tracee Ellis Ross and Kristen Stewart, among others.  Greenberg is also the founder of the DTC makeup line Jamie Makeup, known best for its blush/highlighter hybrid product called Blighlighter and spray makeup remover named B.F.M.R. Mist. She's also a prolific social media creator with more than 700,000 followers across TikTok and Instagram, and she runs a monthly subscription beauty box called SwagBag that features her latest favorite products from a wide array of brands. Press play now for a candid conversation on where makeup is headed, including the trends and signals Greenberg is paying attention to now.

People decide whether to trust you before they've had time to fully evaluate your expertise. Before they process your words, they're reading your energy, pace, posture, eye contact, and certainty. The question is: Does the way you show up match the brilliance you bring? In this milestone 200th episode, I'm sharing seven practical ways to build trust quickly, strengthen your credibility, and influence the room with Powerhouse Presence™. 1. The Handshake Moment: Trust Starts Before Your Content Does People experience you before they process what you're saying. Your posture, facial expression, eye contact, pace, and energy are already communicating a message. Before your next high-stakes conversation, ask yourself: How do I want to be experienced in this room? Choose three words, such as calm, credible, clear, and let those guide how you show up. 2. Calm Certainty Builds Credibility Powerhouse Presence™ isn't about being the loudest or most charismatic person in the room. It's about communicating: I belong here. I know what I bring. And I don't need to prove it. Slow your pace. Finish your sentences. Let your words land. Confidence doesn't rush. 3. Your First Words Matter Don't waste your opening warming up, qualifying your opinion, or giving unnecessary backstory. Instead of: “I've been thinking about this, and I'm not sure everyone will agree, but…” Try: “Here's what I recommend.” Use BLUF: Bottom Line Up Front. Lead with what matters most. 4. Remove the Language That Leaks Authority Pay attention to words and phrases that unintentionally weaken your message: just, sorry, I think, maybe, hopefully, or does that make sense? You don't have to become aggressive or overly direct. The goal is to communicate with greater clarity and certainty. Before you speak, ask: Am I softening this because it needs to be softened, or because I'm uncomfortable owning it? 5. Stand Out by Being Concise Over-explaining can come from wanting to prove your credibility. Ironically, it can have the opposite effect. Make your point. Give the necessary context. Then stop. Challenge yourself to cut the runway and eliminate the first 20–30% of what you would normally say. The more important your point, the less you should bury it. 6. Make Sure Your Presence Matches Your Brilliance You can be exceptionally talented and still have a gap between what you know and how others experience you. I call this the Credibility Gap: the distance between the expertise you possess and the confidence, clarity, and authority others experience from you. Your goal isn't to become someone else. It's to make sure the room can see the value that's already there. 7. Build Trust Through Consistency Powerhouse Presence™ isn't something you turn on for the big presentation or board meeting. Trust is built in the everyday moments: keeping your word, being prepared, communicating clearly, handling pressure well, and saying what needs to be said. People trust leaders when they know what they can count on from them.   Your Powerhouse Challenge This week, don't try to be more impressive. Be more intentional. Speak sooner. Say less. Slow down. Trust your own voice. Because when your presence matches your brilliance, you don't have to fight to command the room. People feel it.

My stomach in my throat, I was unable to get the words out (in spite of being in a senior leadership role).  Then, I heard my boss shut down the meeting. My heart sank. I was mortified. She pulled me aside and said, "You didn't trust your gut. You could've tabled the meeting like I did." Why didn't that option occur to me in the moment? Why did I feel like I needed permission? That was the day I set out to change. I began a journey of personal growth to discover the root of the problem. Once I did, I wanted every woman to experience that same freedom. I'm now on a mission to silence self-doubt in 10 million women in 10 years by giving them simple strategies to speak up and ask for what they want in the boardroom and beyond, resulting in more clients, job promotions, and negotiation wins.

In 2021, she launched RŌZ to bring clean, professional-grade haircare to both stylists and consumers, inspired by her belief that beautiful hair should enhance natural texture—not fight against it. Today, RŌZ is sold through Sephora, Nordstrom, Credo Beauty, salons nationwide, and continues to grow following a significant investment from L Catterton. Links:

Amy’s gushing about a book that might be the best read of the year, no spoilers, just pure obsession. Then we dig into some research-backed data on family dinners and why something as simple as eating together regularly can lower kids' aggression, reduce disordered eating, and even boost grades and self-esteem. We also get into a genuinely useful parenting hack for avoiding yes/no questions that invite pushback (and yes, we tested if it works on spouses too), plus Quiet Hours at Sephora, a sensory-friendly shopping option way more people than you'd expect could benefit from. And we share an incredibly moving email from a listener nominating her local teacher, whose classroom was damaged in recent flooding but who's kept showing up for her students anyway. We're kicking off something special with Hasbro over the next several weeks to help honor her and teachers like her. Hasbro is sponsoring Feeling Things for 8 weeks, celebrating back to school by getting families around the table with games again. Even better: they're helping us honor amazing teachers! Know one?

In this episode, I sat down with Karen Young, founder of OUI the People, a fine fragrance and body care brand born out of her own struggle with razor burn and ingrown hairs. Karen walks us through her path from fashion, where she interned at Dolce and Gabbana, to becoming an executive at Estee Lauder, to eventually building a beauty brand now sold in Sephora.But Karen's story starts before OUI the People, with a lifestyle and home goods brand called Hammocks and High T that she built and ultimately had to close. We talk about the hard lessons on margins and capital that came out of that experience, the unexpected subway encounter that led to her job at Estee Lauder, and how she used her years inside a major beauty conglomerate to build her own brand from the ground up.Karen also gets honest about the financial rollercoaster of raising venture capital, scaling a team, and chasing growth without profitability for years, and what finally shifted this year. We close things out with her thoughts on consumer psychology, pricing a premium product, and her advice for women weighing whether to leave a steady paycheck for their side hustle.Main TakeawaysWhy closing a business is not failure, but tuition in a school of hard knocks that teaches you margins, capital, and scale.How to price a premium product by studying who your customer already trusts enough to spend on, not just what they say they need.Why visibility does not equal revenue, and how chasing growth without watching profitability can quietly sink a business.How building a trusted circle of fellow founders can matter more than any book when the entrepreneurial journey gets lonely.Highlights Include00:20 - How a lifelong struggle with razor burn and ingrown hairs on melanated skin became the idea behind OUI the People05:49 - Why Karen closed her first business, a lifestyle and home goods brand called Hammocks and High T11:19 - Learning the difference between spotting a market gap and finding real money inside of it16:00 - The subway encounter that led to Karen's job offer at Estee Lauder25:37 - What Karen absorbed from watching a major beauty conglomerate acquire and scale brands from the inside34:15 - The origins of OUI the People, which started as a direct to consumer razor brand called We Shave41:14 - How Karen priced her first razor at seventy five dollars, then raised it to eighty five to ninety, by studying who was already buying La Mer43:49 - Why Karen called manufacturers in the UK, Germany, and Japan before choosing a small German razor maker50:39 - How the brand expanded from razors into body care, then into Sephora in 2019, then a full fragrance launch in 202357:57 - The honest truth about raising venture capital, scaling a team, and finally hitting profitability this year1:12:19 - Lightning round: her go to founder resource, the mentor she admires, her non negotiable evening ritual, and her advice for side hustlersLinks Mentioned in This EpisodeShop OUI the People: ouithepeople.comSocial Mediaouithepeople.comOUI the People on Instagram: @ouithepeople https://www.instagram.com/ouithepeople/ OUI The People TikTok: @ouithepeople https://www.tiktok.com/@ouithepeople Hosted on Acast.

Becca is on cup three of coffee and fully spiraling, but for once it's over her grays, not her wrinkles. The girls debate whether "gray-maxing" à la Sarah Jessica Parker is chic or just expensive, before Becca shares the good news that Ford has fully embraced baby "Little One" (stroller tip-over included — strap your babies in, people). Jac discovers a single hot man in Mission Viejo, accidentally DMs Hannah Berner a dozen unhinged TikToks, and gets newly obsessed with Robert Pattinson's press tour.

I sat down with Thomas Smith, founder of skinatwork.com. Here are 3 takeaways. 1. Simple is a strategy. Nearly 70% of Thomas's customers buy a full kit on the first visit. Simplicity is doing the hard work so your customer doesn't have to. 2. Know your numbers. Acquisition cost. Lifetime value. Repeat rate. Chase one metric and wonder why you're losing. 3. Build for a need, not a moment. Thomas launched during the pandemic , when everyone said don't. He did it anyway because the customer pain was real. That's the only reason that matters.   --- In Thomas Smith's words: I've been in skincare for 30 amazing years working for some of the most exciting brands and retailers in beauty: on the sales floor, in the spa, as a buyer, developer, marketer, entrepreneur and lover of all things skin. I spent a decade in NYC at Saks and Sephora, a decade in Colorado creating formulas for dry, sensitive skin at my own stores called MELT and a decade in LA marketing or developing products for Murad, Meaningful Beauty and Anastasia Beverly Hills, to name a few. My mom loves to tell people that I started as a cosmetics stock boy in Saks Denver, I prefer to say that I didn't choose skincare, it chose me. Over the years, I have watched as skincare has gotten increasingly complicated. So many steps, so many new products and so much time, money, brain space and energy spent trying to decode it all. Trust me, the amount of choice overwhelms me, too! Whenever I visit family or friends, they always ask for my advice on what to buy, when to use, how to use and in what combinations and it got me to thinking… how could I create the simplest, and I mean THE SIMPLEST, most efficacious skincare system possible for my mom, my sister, all of my peeps (including myself!) for skin of all ages, stages and concerns? That's how SKIN AT WORK was born. SKIN AT WORK is an obsessively streamlined, ultra concentrated, ALL-IN-ONE-STEP skincare system of clinically tested, gently powerful, hyper-tasking hero formulas that give your skin everything it needs (over 14 ingredients at efficacious levels) to thrive at its healthiest, deliver head-turning wow and the freedom to spend less time doing steps in the mirror and more time squeezing the juice out of life."

In this episode, I'm diving into a game-changing strategy for anyone who is feeling stuck trying to sell their signature offers. If you've been constantly creating low ticket offers or freebies but feel like you're talking to the wrong people, or you're watching low ticket buyers and freebie downloaders never transition into your signature spaces, this one is for you. I'm flipping the script on what you've been taught about freebies and lower ticket offers and showing you how to turn them into powerful, profitable gateways to your signature programs. I share exactly why I stopped creating freebies in my own business, the Sephora sample analogy that will change how you think about every low ticket offer you build, and the three mistakes most entrepreneurs make when structuring their offer ecosystem. I walk you through how to audit your current offers, create micro transformations that give your dream client an unforgettable taste of your work, and refine your messaging so it speaks to every phase of your ideal client's evolution. If you've been working harder for smaller results, this episode will completely transform how you structure your offers, and more importantly, how you generate consistent revenue without burning out.

Becca pops back on to give the gang a real-time update from the NICU, where baby Meyer is stable and making steady progress but still has to ace her final test: 16 bottles in a row. Becca gets honest about the highs and lows of it all — finding her daily "glimmers" (an underrated Jimmy John's sub, a newly perfected Starbucks order), making herself a Babylist registry, a raw mama-bear moment that left her wrestling with guilt, and how Zach and big brother Ford are holding up. Keltie and Jac hold space for her to feel the hard parts, drop the strong act for a minute, and soak up all the love pouring in from the Lady Gang community.Thank you for supporting our sponsors!Arya: Get $10 off your first month at https://GetArya.com/LADYGANG Clean Simple Eats: Shop the best tasting protein powders at https://CleanSimpleEats.comK18: Need a better shampoo?

Send us Fan MailContent creator Marjan Tabibzada joins Skin Anarchy to talk about building a career with no blueprint: her start at the MAC counter, representing brown and Middle Eastern women in beauty and fashion, surviving online hate, vetting brand deals honestly, and the Times Square campaign that made a childhood dream real.Who is Marjan Tabibzada? A creator who built a following representing women who rarely saw themselves online. "There's so many of us out there."How did she get started in content creation? Posting on the side while at Cal State Northridge and the MAC counter. "I really felt like I was doing a bajillion different things." TikTok took off, and she chose creation over law school.What did she learn at MAC Cosmetics? That inclusivity could be a foundation. "Every shade of the foundation that you can" imagine was there.How do you build a following with no blueprint? Relentless trial and error. "There will be hundreds of my videos that have flopped... and you have to pick your butt back up and keep creating."How does she keep content relatable across cultures? By reworking revealing trends into modest looks. "We are the brown girls where we can't really show... so let's make this a little bit more modest."How does she handle online hate and cancel culture? By refusing to let it take root. "If you just allow those comments to take over, you're going to go into such a dark place that getting out is going to be very difficult."Where is influencer marketing headed? Creators replacing traditional ads. "People trust the influencers, and when you relate to a content creator, it brings such a powerful take on why brands should work with you."How does she vet brand deals? Authenticity first. "Would I genuinely recommend this if there wasn't a campaign attached to it?" She has refused deals that asked her to lie about results.Does becoming an influencer make you rich? Not how people assume. "Just because you make content does not mean you're gonna be rich." Her first brand deal paid about a thousand dollars.Why do content creators need a plan B? Platforms are not permanent. "You need a plan B." She kept her degree and built across Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, and more.What advice does she have for aspiring creators? Start before you feel ready. "I learned by doing, by making mistakes, and by staying curious." Age is just a number.Listen to the full episode with Marjan Tabibzada on Skin Anarchy, available wherever you get your podcasts.Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!Support the show

Stassi Schroeder is back on our reality TV screens with her new Hulu show House of Stassi (premiering July 29). The queen of the OOTD walks us through the wild three-and-a-half-year hustle to get the show greenlit — funding her own sizzle reel, storming the Hulu building, and filming without an official green light.
