I talk with Bassy Schwartz, not your typical wig seller, about the industry. She shares the expensive disaster that was her first wig purchase, and how she set out to make over the wig industry. We also discuss my feelings towards lace top wigs and the keeping-up-with-the-joneses aspect of wig wearing

I go solo to talk about The Little Ruffle Dress, I share the road of failures that led to this design, why I’m not the biggest fan of marketing, and why I think it’s time we reclaimed the Little Black Dress. 

I talk with Esther Brocha Rubinstein, an eating disorder survivor, about her recovery. She shares how determination to not gain weight in seminary led to a full blown eating disorder, what it's like to believe that you don’t deserve to eat, what led her to finally get treatment and how she’s doing now.

I go solo to reflect on a year of offering preorders on my designs. I share what it was like to give up the handwritten notes I love, what I learnt from the sizes that were preordered, my focus on pieces rather than collections and my picks for the holiday.

One year after we wore #pinkforchava, I revisit a talk with Dr. Shana Frydman, the director of Shalom Task Force. She shares what it is and isn’t domestic violence, the importance of having voice in a relationship, the barriers survivors have to leaving, and what the community can do to help.
