In this powerful episode, originally published on March 21, 2021, we sit down with Courtney Stewart, CEO and Founder of LipRevolt, a bold cosmetics brand that combines beauty with activism. Courtney shares her deeply personal journey—from overcoming abuse and adversity in her youth to founding a company with a mission to empower marginalized communities. Through LipRevolt, she champions social justice by donating 10% of sales to organizations supporting women’s rights, civil rights, and LGBTQ+ rights.

Topics Covered:

• The life experiences that shaped Courtney's path to activism and entrepreneurship.
• How LipRevolt is more than a lipstick—it’s a call to action and a symbol of empowerment.
• Navigating the challenges of starting a business without prior industry experience.
• The importance of representation in the beauty industry and how LipRevolt seeks to fill the gaps.
• The transformative power of community, both in fostering personal growth and driving societal change.

Courtney also discusses the charities LipRevolt supports, such as The New Georgia Project, and encourages listeners to engage in meaningful action—whether by volunteering, supporting nonprofits, or amplifying the voices of those advocating for equality.

Key Quotes:

• “Your existence and authenticity are revolutionary. Take hold of it, fight for it, and live.”
• “There’s so much power in a voice. Use it to tear down misogyny, fight against sexual abuse, or challenge injustices.”
• “Don’t let a lack of experience stop you. If you see a gap, fill it.”
