I am an entrepreneur and currently running curlBOX.com. I share my insights, things I've learned along the way in hopes to teach you the things I had to learn the HARD way!
I met Ursula a little over a year ago and she's so ON, I was immediately injected with her energy and passion. She reminded me of a good friend from elementary school. Find out why she says there's no such thing as "too expensive" and why you have to pay SOMEBODY!
I have a long e-history with Tia Williams. She was the first person to "break" the curlBOX news on Essence.com and I'm obsessed with her latest book "The Perfect Find." We talk about Tia's life as a journalist, how she's managed to pick herself up from the darkest situation and why she's tickling herself these days. You're going to love this one!

It took a few days to make this happen but I was able to catch up with the hard-working woman in the flesh! Karleen Roy of The Vanity Group has an industry-wide reputation for making shit happen and I was thrilled to be able to sit her down and ask her HOW. We got bombed by one of her clients at the end. Be sure to let this play to the very end!

I've done a lot of things and every now and then something blows my mind! This interview helped me understand the appeal to the podcast (which is purely a hobby). I had so much fun recording this interview and getting perspective. Brittany says it's "Cheat Codes" ... I love that!
