For Tracy Christian, fashion is about power, visibility, and legacy. A legendary Hollywood talent agent and the founder of the fashion house Sante Grace, Tracy is on a mission to help plus-size women show up as boldly as they feel. She shares how she built her own line from scratch, why self-love is the ultimate emancipation, and what it means to lead with integrity in an industry that wasn’t built with you in mind. This is a conversation about fashion, confidence, entrepreneurship, women empowerment, and the ripple effect of choosing to do it your way. Tracy opens up about her career, her values, and how she’s making it easier for the next generation of Black women to be seen, heard, and celebrated.
