Hello everyone, welcome back for the final episode of Mahogany and Friends.

Today we will chat with a NY native who loves to live life and share her interests and experiences, mostly centered around personal style with a focus on plus size fashion and Brown beauty. She has a very unique viewpoint when it comes to diversity within the digital space and is dedicated to applying her background of Public Relations, Journalism, Content Creation and Influencer Marketing to push the needle forward in terms of representation.

Welcome to a new episode of Mahogany & Friends!
Today is a really special episode because we are going to talk about finding your passion and the value of monetizing your work as a creative! SO with that said, let’s talk. Our next guest is a mixed-media artist who I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing her work as a mentee at Parsons School of Design. Her work has consistent themes that explore the intricacy of belonging to an American, Kenyan, and Trinidadian identity. She aims to use her interdisciplinary concentration as a medium to address topics within her culture. Rotating between collage, painting, fashion design, and screen printing her work is heavily inspired by the art of storytelling.

“AM I DOING ENOUGH?” The Toxicity of Hustle Culture & The Importance of Mental Wellness as a Entrepreneur w/ Sanasjia Clervoix
Welcome to a new episode of Mahogany & Friends!
Today’s podcast episode is going to touch on something that I see continue to come up, --- a constant struggle for us to follow a work/life balance. As I’ve witnessed it, this concept is evolving as Millennials/Gen-Z enter the freelance workplace, I think this it’s worth questioning: how much is too much? We’ll discuss the importance of mental wellness as an entrepreneur.
SO with that said, let’s talk.
