Our host for 2022, Karisha Partabrai goes on a journey to learn more about sustainable cosmetics and interviews Mugdha Hedaoo the co-founder of GoPlay Cosmetics that created the world's first hyper-personalised modular makeup innovation the LIPSKIT. The LIPSKIT enables you to create your own shades of lipstick in a fuss-free and sustainable way, mixing primary colours in correct proportions to give you almost any colour you want. So think up a colour, find the recipe on the GoPlay App and create it in less than 20 seconds on the patented LIPSKIT. The LIPSKIT has garnered a fair amount of traction on the internet with consumers comparing GoPlay products to that of major beauty brands such as YSL. As a 100% plastic-neutral company, GoPlay is on its way to making a huge impact on our world!

Shopping for new clothes is a favourite past-time and stress reliever that most turn to for some respite. Whether it is in treating ourselves to a new dress for a wedding or buying that new loungewear set for comfort during those lockdowns, we will find every excuse to make a purchase. And by the end of every year we try hard to declutter our overflowing wardrobes. Yet, come the new year, we do it all over again. Is there any way around to finally setting our resolutions to breaking those habits in the new year?
To understand more about why we do what we do, and to plan our wardrobes (and budgets) consciously for the new year ahead, I speak to the pioneer behind the field of Fashion Psychology, Dr Dawnn Karen, Author of Dress Your Best Life and Founder of Fashion Psychology Institute. Dr Karen, also known as the "Dress Doctor" has spent years studying the relationship between attire and attitude.
Tune in as she shares why emotions play a huge part in those shopping or style decisions we make and how we can take control over them to dress our best lives.
Get ready for a more mindful wardrobe in 2022!

Being a mom changes a lot of things for a woman. While the most obvious change is that in your body, there are a lot more changes to that than meets the eye. In this podcast episode, I speak with Sher-li Torrey, founder of Mums@Work, a platform helping mothers in Singapore find work-family balance since 2010.
Like many other professional mothers in Singapore, Sher-li Torrey couldn't find meaningful flexiwork jobs when her first child was born. This inspired her to set up Mums@Work to list genuine flexi-work, offer career fairs and training workshops, creating a network of like-minded mothers. And she didn't stop there.
Most recently, Sher-li initiated the 40 Over 40 awards to challenge the culture of ageism at the workplace. In a society that highlights the spunk and never-ending energy of the young, this project embraces the transformational journeys of 40 women in Singapore, over 40 years of age – sharing their tales of ‘taking a risk’ to breathe life into their career aspirations, despite the odds.
Tune in to find out how you can benefit from the work that Sher-li and her team does, and be inspired that whatever changes you face in life as a woman, be it motherhood or tipping over into 40, there are others like her out there to cheer you on and to support you.

When one thinks of upcycling, the simplest interpretation would be to sell preloved clothes to someone else or creating a pair of denim shorts from jeans. Natacha Chapon, founder of The Thread Loop takes us further behind the scenes of her low impact fashion boutique that upcycles deadstocks, offcuts, over-production and vintage fabrics to produce high quality bags and accessories.
In this episode, we discuss why quality matters in upcycling - whether selling secondhand or creating a new line of products, and why taking that bit of effort to be sustainable can make a world of difference.
Tune in as Natacha reveals the amount of waste that occurs in the textile supply chain that is rarely seen by the end consumer and why working in the industry inspired her to start The Thread Loop in Singapore. Find out also how she uses her textile expertise to adapt products suitable for both the Asian and European markets, yet keeping things local to ensure sustainability.
If you are in Singapore and want to support a local brand, consider The Thread Loop for its functional designs and durable quality.

We build up clutter in our closets through many different means. It isn't unusual then that pieces are often worn once or twice before they are tossed at the back of our closets, all forgotten and mouldy. Do you have a closet full of forgotten clothes that is disturbing you right now? Then perhaps it's time to think about elimination.
In this episode, we speak to Girlsourced Stylist Renata to find out how she went from being a fashionista to a minimalist and why she launched the Wardrobe Restart on Girlsourced to help ladies declutter and find better style.
Tune in to hear how she transited from having a roomful of clothes to only 20 pieces in her wardrobe.
Want to achieve the same minimalism for your wardrobe? Renata tells it all, from the clients whose stories inspire her everyday to 5 reasons why you would want to get on the Wardrobe Restart with her today.
