We're revisiting this inspiring conversation from our Beauty and Self-Care Digital Summit with a woman who needs no introduction, Tyra Banks. 

From signing as a model at the age of 15 to bringing the word “smize” into our vocabulary, she has firmly established herself as a cultural icon over the course of her decades-long career.

She’s walked in too many fashion week shows, graced too many magazine covers, and starred in too many brand campaigns to list them all—and she could have stopped there and made a very comfortable living as “just” a supermodel. 

But instead, she chose to veer outside of her lane to become a television producer, an entrepreneur, and a guest lecturer at Stanford University. 

Needless to say, I can’t wait to dive into the incredible career of this successful supermodel and entrepreneur.

Elevating a business to the next level requires access to resources, capital, and mentorship. But as we all know, not all entrepreneurs are given equal opportunities to succeed in taking their businesses from early-stage startup to successful company.

Case in point: Black women were among the fastest-growing entrepreneurs before COVID hit. But by the numbers, Black women, who represent 42% of new women-owned businesses (three times their share of the female population!), only receive 0.06% of venture capital funding.

However, a silver lining of COVID-19—and a result of the BLM movement—is that large companies are launching programs to support Black-owned businesses. Expanding access to resources, capital, mentorship, and everything these entrepreneurs need to scale their businesses successfully. 

Today, I’m so excited to be joined by two entrepreneurs who can share first-hand what it takes to overcome these obstacles, raise capital, grow a team, and even land your product on the shelves of a major retailer (!).

Apply to Target's Forward Founders program! Applications are open until May 12, 2021 at 11:59 PM CST. You can find more information and apply directly at www.targetaccelerators.com.

Launching a business is one thing, but growing and scaling that business––with a team that is diverse, inclusive, and women-led––is another thing entirely.

Taking a business to the next level not only requires a strong brand vision, but also a team of talented people whose skill sets complement your own. 

Today, I’m so excited to be joined by Rachel Roff, founder of Urban Skin Rx, who can share first-hand what it takes to not only scale and grow a team but launch a successful product line (with nationwide distribution) in less than 10 years.

One year into the COVID-19 crisis, women are more financially stressed than ever. 

To talk about practical ways to take control of your finances, manage your money anxiety, and make smart money moves during these trying and stressful times, I’m thrilled to be joined by Tonya Rapley, a.k.a “The Millennial Money Expert” and founder of My Fab Finance, on this episode of WorkParty.

Tonya has completely changed the game, turning the once stuffy financial industry into a fun, familiar, and, dare I say, cool space. She’s been named the “New Face of Wealth Building” by Black Enterprise magazine, lauded as a modern “history maker,” and honored on Create & Cultivate’s CC100 list. Needless to say, I’m so excited to talk with Tanya about all things finance!

The topic of menstruation and period care products has long been stigmatized. Though femcare is expected to reach $42.7 billion by 2022, the industry has remained relatively stagnant for decades. Breaking down the barriers to innovation first requires breaking longstanding taboos – and that’s exactly what Carinne Chambers-Saini intends to do.

As the CEO and founder of DivaCup, she is shaking up the femcare market by taking the concept of menstrual cups from niche to mainstream. DivaCup is revolutionizing the period experience, providing the most eco-friendly, clean, and comfortable way to address menstrual care on the market today.

In this episode of WorkParty, I’m sitting down with Carinne to chat about overcoming adversity, balancing purpose and profit, and finally breaking taboo–period.

If keeping your stress levels in check in the age of the 24-hour news cycle feels like a near-impossible task, you’re certainly not the only one. 

According to the American Psychological Association’s annual Stress in America report, 54% of Americans say that staying informed causes them stress. Thankfully, Jessica Yellin is on a mission to change that stat with her media brand, News Not Noise. 

News Not Noise provides information in a way that’s designed to help the people understand the issues and talk about them knowledgeably — not induce a panic attack.

In this episode of WorkParty, I have the pleasure of sitting down with Jessica to learn what drew her to reporting the news on social media, how she navigates negativity in the comments, and why the media is due for a major shakeup.

For years, there’s been talk about how the publishing industry is in decline. But the demand for content has never been higher.

So it’s up to publishers to adapt—which is where today's guest Samantha Barry comes in. Since leaving her post as the head of social media at CNN to take on the role of editor-in-chief of Glamour Magazine in 2016, the editor has been at the forefront of the industry’s shift from print to digital.

Shortly after she took the reins at Glamour, the publication announced the end of its monthly print edition—and she’s since led the brand to amass digital accomplishments. I'm happy to virtually sit down with Samantha to talk about her impressive career, from how she made the pivot from news to women’s media to why culture-pushing content is at the core of Glamour’s digital-first strategy and what the future holds for the next generation of journalists.
