Posers with Jodi Hendricks

029: The Queen of Queens: My Conversation with D’Arcy Benincosa, Part 1


Listen Later

Okay, Posers… today is a big one. I’ve got the Queen of Queens herself, D’Arcy Benincosa, on the podcast.

If you don’t already know D’Arcy, she’s the definition of an industry icon. Courses everyone talks about. Editing that’s chef’s kiss. A brain that can take your jumbled ideas and spit out pure gold. And for me?

She’s personal. Because years ago I sat in her living room as a brand-new single mom… and The Posing Method was born right there.

In Part 1 we dive into:

  • Why your editing is more than pretty colors — it’s your authority.
  • The painful difference between a basic editor vs. a master.
  • The trends that need to die (looking at you, neon grass + ghost skin).
  • How cohesion in your portfolio is the secret to luxury prices.
  • This one had me rethinking my own work mid-conversation.
