  • Great guests and awesome research

    I really enjoy this podcast - it’s an easy listen on clearly well researched topics. I trust the hosts and liked the last episode on predictions for 2026 so much that I felt compelled to write a review. Solid work, Ladies! Keep it up!

  • Criticizing Natural Beauty? That’s the Real Impediment!

    Passing derogatory comments about someone's natural beauty and unique way of communicating is, in itself, a speech impediment.

    Keep up the awesome work, Sara—you’ve inspired me to binge-listen to all the podcasts! Frankly, I didn’t even notice anything until I read that lame review’s by those ‘Ableists.’

    I guess they’re not in the beauty industry—because if they understood beauty, they’d recognize yours!

  • Good content but host is unbearable

    I’ve listened about 6 episodes and the guests and interviews have been great and very interesting but each time they cut to the host, it’s awful. She talks like a ditsy teenager and has a lisp. What were they thinking…was no one else a available to host this podcast?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Amazon wants to be a beauty powerhouse. Is a big beauty sale the answer?
Q: Is Amazon sort of entering in any of these traditional beauty retail strategies, like loyalty, samples, gift with purchase? Are they doing anything like that yet?
They're exploring loyalty-like incentives such as gift-with-purchase pilots and coupons, but their approach to loyalty appears less entrenched than Sephora or Ulta; the emphasis is more on discovery and AI-enabled assistance than traditional in-store perks.
L’Oréal's product placement strategy for "The Devil Wears Prada 2" with exec Laura Branik
Q: How did you select which products are right for the promotion of this?
Three products were chosen for strategic alignment: Colourish lipstick as an iconic, best-selling item; setting spray as a top-performing, user-friendly product; and the new mascara extension that showcases advanced technology, all fitting the Devil Wears Prada universe and anchoring the campaign's storytelling.
Why AI-powered wellness chatbots will be 'table stakes' for supplement brands, with Thorne CSO Dr. Nathan Price
Q: What are the main challenges Taia faces, and how are you addressing them?
Key challenges include avoiding hallucinations, complying with Deschet law and health regulations, and ensuring product recommendations stay within the vetted Thorne catalog; Taia uses restricted outputs, curated sources, guardrails, and continuous monitoring to keep responses accurate and safe.
Why AI-powered wellness chatbots will be 'table stakes' for supplement brands, with Thorne CSO Dr. Nathan Price
Q: Why is a supplement company investing in an AI powered wellness chatbot?
The goal is dual: improve the quality of customer experience and enable truly personalized guidance, helping customers understand products and how they fit their wellness journey, which in turn can drive meaningful ROI through higher satisfaction, repeat purchases, and word-of-mouth recommendations.
How to turn a no from Ulta into a yes, even if it takes 7 years
Q: Why Ulta over Sephora, and did you also reach out to Sephora during the long pitching process?
Ulta aligned better with the brand ethos as a farm-friendly, approachable space that resonates with our story. Sephora, while familiar due to past industry connections, indicated not a fit at that time. The choice to pursue Ulta first was driven by culture fit and timing; we did circle back to Sephora during the long window of negotiations, but ultimately Ulta became the path that matched our strategic narrative and timeline.
