Fine, 51 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: it's when you're in like New York, like Manhattan, going 52 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: to Brooklyn or something. I'm like, no, there's no way 53 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: that LA is worse. There's no way. Yeah, I was 54 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: like two miles away for three hours. I was like, 55 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: I'm almost normally two miles away. 56 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 57 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 2: And that's the worst because it really can take you 58 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 2: like an hour an hour and a half to go 59 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 2: like four or five miles here. 60 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's great. So crazy. 61 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: Everyone thinks I'm nuts because they're like, why don't you 62 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: live in New York City. But I'm telling you, I 63 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: would never stop if I live down here. Do you imagine, Yeah, Like, 64 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: I would never stop. 65 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: That's an entrepreneurial perk and con sometimes one hundred percent. 66 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 3: It's great that you. 67 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: Have that willingness to like, go, go go, But do 68 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 2: you feel like that catches up with you often? 69 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 3: Oh, one hundred percent. 70 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: I mean this was something that I was dealing with, 71 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: Like right before COVID, I hit a major, major burnout, 72 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: and then when COVID happened. At first, I freaked out 73 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: during the pandemic, but then I was like, oh my god, 74 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: it's kind of nice. Yeah. 75 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 3: I was like, I get to breathe. 76 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: I was like, I get to like not commute every 77 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: day and not carry my kit and not answer all 78 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: these emails. I'm just outside and I'm hiking and I'm 79 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I know it wasn't like that for everybody. 80 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to be sensitive to you know, other 81 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: people that went through it, but yeah, I definitely need 82 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: to be in nature for sure to recharge. 83 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 3: At first. Was that difficult for you? 84 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 2: That stark contrast from being so busy, busy, busy to 85 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: actually having the freedom to have some more of your 86 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: time back to yourself. 87 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. But it was also a huge wake 88 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: up call. Right, So I went from going, going, going. 89 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: I didn't realize how unhealthy I was, and like my 90 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: nervous system was shot. I was saying yes to every 91 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 1: little thing, which I do feel like you have to 92 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: do in business and as an entrepreneur when you're growing 93 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: your company, you do have to say yes. You do 94 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: have to put in years and hard work and you know, 95 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: many years of hustle and grind, Like. 96 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: I think that's really important. 97 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: But once I had that time to rest and recover, 98 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: as like, oh my inflammation's gone. Oh, I feel energized, 99 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: Like I had an awakening for sure. So now I 100 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: really look forward to going back home and going upstate 101 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: into my little sanctuary. I have my red light, I 102 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: have my saana, I have you know, a yard, which 103 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: is nice, and I'm like, okay, I can recharge and 104 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: then when I need to come back down here to 105 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: like hustle, grind, do makeup, do all the things, and 106 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: I'm present and able to do it. 107 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you said my inflammation was gone. Talk to me 108 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: about what that looked like practically. 109 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: Oh, I mean I do have some autoimmune things. I 110 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: didn't know that I had endometriosis, but I because I 111 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: was going, going, going, I wasn't properly taking care of myself. 112 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: This is pre COVID. 113 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: Right during COVID, I caught my nervous system. I was 114 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: eating better, I was cooking all my meals. I was outside, 115 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: I was in the sun, I was doing all the things, 116 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: and I noticed that I felt so much better. And 117 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: then once I started working again, flying, traveling all over 118 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: the place, I was still definitely being more aware of 119 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: taking care of my body.

And also maybe I want 248 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: to surround myself with different types of people. Maybe I 249 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: don't want to surround myself with like the small town 250 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 1: gossipy clique, Like that's not me anymore. I just went 251 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: through something so major, so traumatic, and I want to 252 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: surround myself with people that are growing, people that are learning, 253 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 1: people that are traveling the world and having bigger conversations, 254 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: you know, people that are thinking outside the box, people 255 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: that have been through things in their life.

And what do you feel like you 341 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 2: can offer people who are interested in also becoming good 342 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 2: manifestors themselves. 343 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: So I believe that you have to fully believe that 344 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: whatever you want to manifest is already yours, and you 345 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: have to just claim it and own it and act 346 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 1: with confidence. I've always been big into vision boarding. I 347 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: like to call them execution boards, okay, because it's not 348 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 1: so much just like pictures that I'm going to look 349 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: at on this board and then one day, poof, it's 350 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: going to happen, Like I have to execute and have 351 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: all these micro goals to hit these macro goals right. 352 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: But for instance, like I had put Sarah Blakeley, I 353 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: had put a picture of her on a vision board. 354 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: This was like I think in maybe twenty eighteen or 355 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, and all of a sudden her name started 356 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: coming up in conversation a lot, and I started like 357 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: reading about her a lot. I was super inspired by 358 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: her story. She had lost one of her closest girlfriends 359 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: when she was younger, and I had lost a really 360 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: one of my best friends as well, so I really 361 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: resonated with her story and thought like her entrepreneurial journey 362 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: was so incredible. So put her on my vision board 363 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 1: and you know, talking about her as if I'm just 364 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: going to meet her one day whatever. And Sharon as 365 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: my boyfriend at the time. He gets an email and 366 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: he was a photographer, but no offense to him at all. 367 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: He was not like a well known like his photos 368 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:02,239 Speaker 1: were of me for my Instagram. Somehow, someway, he had 369 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: gotten an email and it was something with Sarah Blakeley 370 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: for her family reunion, and I was like, I'm coming 371 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: with you, because I was like this can't be like 372 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: the Sarah blake like, there's no way, but just in case, 373 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: I'm coming with you. 374 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 3: And I went. 375 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: Sure enough, we were at her house and met her, 376 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: met her husband, Jesse, and then he started photographing a 377 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: bunch of events for them and the hill, the hell 378 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: on the Hill, you know what I'm talking about. And 379 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: then I became friends with Jesse's assistant at the time, Amanda, 380 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 1: who's absolutely incredible and we're still really great friends. And 381 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: it was just so crazy. I'm like, wow, I literally 382 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: put her on my vision board like six months ago, 383 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: and now I'm in her kitchen and I'm with her 384 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: whole family and becoming such good friends with Amanda, who's 385 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: Jesse's assistant. 386 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 3: It was just so like what a bizarre moment. 387 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: And like another thing that comes to mind is Gabby, 388 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: Like I read all of her books on Manifestation. I 389 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 1: remember my dad was actually reading one of her books 390 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: before he had passed away, and I was like, you know, 391 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: I went to her book talk.

I had done a 438 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 1: shoot with Carmelo Anthony probably like my god, twelve years ago, 439 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: maybe a little longer than that.

Some people, aren't. You know, 452 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 2: Once you become someone's makeup artists, you're in their home, 453 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 2: you're around their family, like you're it's like a very private, 454 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 2: vulnerable space.

I'm trying to think. 492 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: I did have sports on my vision board when I 493 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 1: think about it, but it wasn't like a specific athlete. 494 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: But I think it's because I mean, I played softball 495 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: growing up. I played for thirteen years and I really, 496 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: I still want to get back into it, like a 497 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: woman's leek. I can join, but like when do we 498 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: have the time for that? But yeah, I did have 499 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: sports on my vision board, so it's funny to like 500 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: reflect on that.

You mentioned the intimacy that comes with doing 505 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 2: people's makeup.

And we were there 513 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: at Nasdak ringing the bell. We were up there ringing 514 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: the bell and I was like, why are we here? 515 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: But like we're part of the crew, you know, like 516 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: of course you have to come up here, you know, 517 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: being in Times Square, Ali hosting the ball drop on 518 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 1: New Year's Eve.

No, like an actual like 543 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: party club. 544 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 545 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: Like they had an elevator that took you downstairs and 546 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,479 Speaker 1: it opened up into a club with like all of 547 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: the lights and the sound systems and a DJ booth. 548 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 1: And I remember just thinking I was so confused. I 549 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: was like, is this like open to the public or 550 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: is this just this person's like their own club in 551 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: their house. Yeah, they had a club. 552 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure the house itself was very large. It 553 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: was large. Yes, it was a large house. 554 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: Yes, Okay, Well I want to pivot a little bit 555 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: and talk about how you get makeup to stay for 556 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,959 Speaker 2: hours on end. You're working with a lot of individuals, 557 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 2: whether we're talking about getting ready before a game and 558 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 2: going out for play or going to events. These are 559 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 2: people that need their makeup to last. So give me 560 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: the rundown. What is the secret? 561 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: I feel like it's a pretty good mix of skin 562 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 1: prep but also strategy, like knowing what we're doing and 563 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: what look we're trying to achieve, right, and athletes they 564 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 1: need makeup that is going to move with them and 565 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: going to stay and work with them and not against them. 566 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: So I focus heavily on skin prep and barrier repair 567 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: and red light therapy and hydration, and we do a 568 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: little bit of facial massage, ice rolling lymphatic drainage before 569 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: we even touch the makeup part. So I just feel 570 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: like it's all about layering in a way that's breathable 571 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: and making their skin look like skin, but also something 572 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: that's gonna be long lasting. So I'll definitely use a 573 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: setting spray that will cater to the look that we're 574 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 1: doing on them. I'm not huge on powders, but if 575 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: I need to use a little bit of powder, I 576 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: will Wait, what is it that we have against powder? 577 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: I personally love a hydrating, glowing look, and I feel 578 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: like a lot of people can go a little overboard 579 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: with the powder. So if I do use powder, I 580 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: will use it on what I call like a microbrush, 581 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: so something that's small, like an eyeshadow brush, and just 582 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: really hit the hot spots where it's a little bit 583 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: oily or shiny, so maybe in the middle of the 584 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: forehead or on the sides of the nose or the chin, 585 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: and just with the smallest amount of powder, just hitting 586 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: those hot spots. But I feel like with the proper 587 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: setting spray that's going to give you a long lasting result. 588 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: I also think the biggest hack per SE is teaching 589 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: my clients how to maintain their look throughout the day, 590 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: so utilizing like all touch ups or like maybe there's 591 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: little blotting papers. For me personally, it's knowing that less 592 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 1: is actually more. So I always want the goal is 593 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: for their looks to be long lasting, but I don't 594 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: ever want it to feel like overdone or heavy, if 595 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: that makes sense. 596 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 2: What I'm hearing you say is that skin prep is 597 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 2: where it's at now. For a number of years, when 598 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 2: it came to athletes, we were seeing a lot of 599 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: no makeup makeup. And what I love about what's happening 600 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 2: right now is there's a really big synergy between makeup 601 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 2: companies women in sport. We're seeing Sephora sponsor Unrivaled. I 602 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 2: mean that's just one small example. How does this make 603 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 2: you feel? What are you feeling about the future collaborations 604 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 2: between glam and sport? 605 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: So I think that this is really exciting because I 606 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: feel like this generation of athletes understand that beauty can 607 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: be utilized as a tool. Makeup is not necessarily a mask, right, 608 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: And I feel like it's all about controlling the look 609 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: and controlling the narrative of how you want to feel. 610 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: These athletes now they're realizing they don't have to fit 611 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: into like one box and they can be strong and 612 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: they can be feminine and that can coexist at the 613 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: same time. So glam has become a way, I think, 614 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: to take ownership of their own story and their own narrative, 615 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: especially in a space that I feel like for a 616 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: long time didn't leave a lot of room for that. 617 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: For a long time, it was like, oh, it's an athlete, 618 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: Like they're just gonna want powder and you know, lip 619 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: bomb on their lips. And it's like, no, Like, you know, 620 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: some of these women, they want glam, they want flashes, 621 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: they want some blush. They I don't think it's more 622 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: so like they want to be transformed. But I feel 623 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: like when you look good, you feel good, and it's 624 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: more about like amplifying the look and showing the world 625 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,719 Speaker 1: every side of who they are. And I'm just so 626 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: for it and I'm excited about it. And it's not 627 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: just the makeup, but it's also the hair, and it's 628 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: also the wardrobe too. 629 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: In terms of athletes, who would you say is doing 630 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 3: it well? 631 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm definitely biased because I work with, like, 632 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: I mean, the most fabulous people, right, But Ali, who's 633 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: I mean, She's like one of my closest friends. But 634 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:23,479 Speaker 1: I feel like working with her, I love her looks 635 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: like she you know, has the wardrobe, she has the hair, 636 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: she has the makeup, she has the lashes, she has 637 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: the whole thing. But also someone like Brianna Stewart, we 638 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: love some stewing, like we've really nailed down like her 639 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: look and what she feels most confident in and comfortable in, 640 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: and what photographs really nicely and what looks good on camera, 641 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: you know, what colors to enhance her blue eyes and 642 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: what you know, tones maybe to stay away from. So yeah, 643 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 1: I think, but also a lot of the girls, like 644 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: there's so many players in the WNBA, there's so many 645 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: players in you know, who play soccer and fall and tennis, 646 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: like just sports across the board that are stepping into 647 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: their looks and I am just so excited and here 648 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: for it. 649 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 2: You mentioned the WNBA, you also talked about the end 650 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 2: of USL. You are the guru for these girls when 651 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 2: it comes to makeup. You are someone that has been 652 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 2: referred time and time again. Why do you think that 653 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 2: that is why do you think you are such a 654 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 2: trusted person amongst these ladies. 655 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: I definitely think that team culture across the board with 656 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: these sports is everything, and these women truly do operate 657 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: like a family, and I feel like trust in these 658 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: circles are earned and not just given. And you when 659 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: you're traveling together and competing together and showing up for 660 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: each other every day, and then you know they might 661 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 1: referra or someone like me, or you know, one of 662 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: the hairstylists or one of the wardrobe stylists, I think 663 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: it means something different. And I think what resonated early 664 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 1: on was that I I started working with athletes many 665 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: years ago, and I really understood their world, and I 666 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: respected their time and their schedules and their boundaries and 667 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,479 Speaker 1: just really started to build these relationships that all really 668 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: have turned into friendships. I never came in trying to 669 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: change who someone was, or you know, also reading the room, 670 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: like if someone is really uncomfortable with a lot of makeup, 671 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: we are not going to do a lot of makeup. 672 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: If someone is comfortable who really wants to cover up 673 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: some things on her face, we're going to cover up 674 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: some things on her face. So I think it's just 675 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: having clear communication and understanding and a level of being comfortable. Yeah, 676 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: and I feel like once a few of like the 677 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 1: key women trusted me, the rest kind of followed organically 678 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: and it's been great because I mean, these ladies have 679 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: been incredibly loyal too, which has been amazing, and we 680 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: have fun and I really try to understand, like I 681 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: don't do the same look on every single person. I 682 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: really try to sit down with them and look at 683 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: their face and see what is going to help with 684 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: making them feel the most beautiful, confident person on the field, 685 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 1: off the field, on the court, whatever it is. So yeah, 686 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: I think that the trust is really earned. It's really earned, 687 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,919 Speaker 1: and we respect each other's boundaries and I show up 688 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: and they're dedicated. 689 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 3: I'm dedicated. 690 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: So I think word of mouth has just been the 691 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: absolute best way to dive deeper into sport. And I 692 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: just absolutely love supporting these women and being around them. 693 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 1: They inspire me. We have fun together and yeah. 694 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 2: Okay, so no two faces are the same, but do 695 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 2: you have like a standard process that you use. 696 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,439 Speaker 1: Let me just start by saying that I absolutely love 697 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 1: working with Suebird. She's truly one of my favorite people 698 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: and we have the best conversations. But something that we 699 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: have developed over time is what we call the Sue 700 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 1: Bird method. So she basically okay, so sometimes she really 701 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: doesn't want any makeup, but other times we have to 702 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 1: do a little bit more, like when she's on Jimmy 703 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 1: Fallon or is filming for a documentary or something, and 704 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 1: also depends on like what she's wearing and how she's feeling. 705 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: So we developed the Suebird Method, which is like level 706 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: one is essentially skincare, So it's like we're really focusing 707 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: on the skin prep, maybe a little like eyebrow grooming, 708 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: maybe you know, some clear Misscara and some lip bomb, 709 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: like something like super clean, polished, no makeup. Then like 710 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: level two adds a little bit more refinement, right, so 711 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: it's like maybe like a little bit of like a 712 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 1: soft definition. Maybe we do like a light brown Misscara. 713 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: Maybe we do like a lip thint that's like so natural. Basically, 714 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: we have level one to level five, and like what 715 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: we call level five is like wedding glam. That's like 716 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: we're doing glam. So I think the highest we've ever 717 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: gone was a level four. I think it was on 718 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,880 Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon or Kelly Clarkson maybe both were like, she 719 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: let me put a few individual lashes on her, and 720 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, we still did like very neutral tones. But 721 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: it's funny because now I use this subird method with 722 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: a lot of my clients. So it's just hilarious that 723 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: we've like developed this like method of glam. 724 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm obsessed with this. 725 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 2: I'm also a massive Suebird fan as a Yukon alumni, 726 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 2: so and I know each other and I think I 727 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 2: don't know if she knows that she used my dream 728 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 2: guest for Hurdle, but she's truly like I would just 729 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 2: lose it if I had the opportunity to sit down 730 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 2: with her specifically for the show. We've had the chance 731 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 2: to chat in person before. But if you happen to 732 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 2: be listening to this too, this is my love letter 733 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 2: to you. Let's do some glam. Let's sit down and 734 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 2: let's have a chat for hurdle. 735 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 3: Yes, there you go. Maybe we'll probably do a level one. 736 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 2: Like glam is okay with me? Yeah, related, kind of unrelated. 737 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 2: Do you ever get starstruck? 738 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 3: Never? Really, I never get starstruck. 739 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: The only time that I had a moment that I 740 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: actually felt like a little taken back was when I 741 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: met Lady Gaga. I didn't do her makeup. I did 742 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 1: Zane Lowe's makeup. He's my client when he's in New York. 743 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 3: Love him. 744 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: He is amazing. He is the best interviewer, Like he 745 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: is fantastic. He's a creative director Apple Music, and I 746 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 1: just absolutely adore working with him. Yeah, and we're always 747 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 1: in the room with super powerful people. And there was 748 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: not that many people in the room with Gaga for 749 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: the interview, and it was several hours, and he knew. 750 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 1: I was like, this is my girl, Like I'm a 751 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: monster like lom Yeah, And I again did not get starstruck. 752 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 1: But I always said to myself, the moment I'm in 753 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: the same room as Lady Gaga is the moment I 754 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 1: know that like I've made it. 755 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, But I'm like, did I make it? How did 756 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 3: I feel for you? 757 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: I was feeling like I don't know if I made it. 758 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: I'm like living in a home renovation and like me 759 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: and my boyfriend just broke up, and I'm like, oh 760 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: my god. 761 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 3: I was like, did I make it? I don't know. 762 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: But it was also super exciting at the same time, 763 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: and she's like so tiny and so beautiful and she 764 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 1: has such a strong presence, and I'm just I mean, 765 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 1: it's Gaga, Like who. 766 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 3: Doesn't love God? Who doesn't love gok you know. 767 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: But that was a really that was the only moment 768 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 1: I can think of that I was like, again, not starstruck, 769 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 1: but just like what's the word. 770 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,919 Speaker 3: I mean, you're coming to terms with that. 771 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 2: You are literally living the life that you said hYP 772 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 2: like hypothetical, totally yeah, if I do this, it'll be wild. 773 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 3: And you're doing it. That's the thing. 774 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, you you set these goals for 775 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,879 Speaker 1: yourself and then you reach the goals and it's like, oh, well, 776 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: I guess I got to set a higher goal now. 777 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 1: So it's like you just keep growing and you keep climbing, 778 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: and you keep setting these goals for yourself. And I 779 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: think it's important too, because I think, you know, it's 780 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 1: important to celebrate the successes and when you reach a goal, 781 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: like you know, sit with it, honor it. But I 782 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: also think when we are too stagnant for a little 783 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: too long, like it could be a little depressing. So 784 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, like hit the goal, Like now what yeah, 785 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 1: you know, so I think it's important to always continue 786 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: to set the standard tie yea and to continue climbing. 787 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 2: Was there a moment or an experience that taught you 788 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 2: that lesson specifically, maybe when you got okay with a 789 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 2: little bit of stagnation within your own life, whether it 790 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 2: be personally or professionally. 791 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 3: Not necessarily that I can think of. Then I'll flip this. 792 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 2: Would you say that this mentality of always setting the 793 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 2: next goal? Yes, you said it's important to celebrate, But 794 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 2: would you say that this mentality of what's next has 795 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 2: ever been difficult or detrimental to you? 796 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: Yeah? 797 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 3: I mean there's also been times where I don't stop. 798 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, And it's like that's why I'm like, 799 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 1: it's so important to like honor that you accomplished a 800 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: goal and honor that you like, or let's celebrate like 801 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: you've reached something big, Like let's celebrate it. 802 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 3: But it's like you always like think that. 803 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 1: Your world's going to change once you hit this goal 804 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: or once you get something that you thought you wanted, 805 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: and it might feel really good for a minute, but 806 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: then it's like, okay, like it's important to do the 807 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: work inside. Yeah, it's important to like work on your 808 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: happiness and work on your mental health. I think constantly, 809 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 1: because then it's going to feel so much better when 810 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: you reach these goals, and then you can celebrate these 811 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 1: goals and then sit with them. 812 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 3: It's like, Okay, we got it. We gotta keep going, 813 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:37,800 Speaker 3: we gotta keep going, We get the cycle. 814 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, someone might hear that and also think yes, and 815 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 2: isn't it tiring? Like isn't it tiring to always be 816 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 2: working on yourself? What do you think say when you 817 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 2: hear that? Well, like I've heard people like people have 818 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 2: asked me before.

The red lights in my 850 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: house is basically I don't want to be exposed to 851 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: blue light once the sun goes down, so I only 852 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 1: want to be exposed like amber or very like dim 853 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 1: warm or red lights.

Red light therapy is a device 857 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,799 Speaker 1: that was created by NASA and it uses infrared technology, 858 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 1: uses far and near infrared and basically what it does 859 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: is it goes through the dermis of your skin. It 860 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: targets all the mitochondria, which is the powerhouse of you know, 861 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 1: your cells, and it works to lower inflammation. It creates 862 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: something called ATP energy, which basically it's just renewing of 863 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,399 Speaker 1: the cell. So it's really great to like wake your 864 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 1: cells up if there is inflammation, it's going to help 865 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 1: to lower any inflammation.
