BE BOLDER As You Get Older!

Lost in Jersey

Ever noticed how a fantastic outfit can change your entire mood or how a unique piece of fashion can make your day brighter? This week, we're all about fashion, creativity, and entrepreneurship.
Meet Arlinda McIntosh, the genius behind Sofistafunk, an inclusive fashion brand. You don't have to be a celebrity to wear her creations or even a model. You just have to feel good in her clothes, and she promises you will!
Listen to her captivating journey, from her childhood interests to carving a niche in the styling of the hip-hop music world, to her fashion shows and designs of today.
Arlinda McIntosh mesmerized us with her design approach, but it's not all glitter and glamour in the fashion world. We also navigated the realm of entrepreneurship – the highs, the lows, and the importance of honoring oneself. If you're an entrepreneur or a budding one, you'll definitely find nuggets of wisdom here.
We didn't stop at fashion and entrepreneurship. We broke ground on important conversations about diversity in the fashion industry, the beauty of aging, and fashion as a form of self-expression.
Listen as we learn about Arlinda's life, share some laughs, and learn to get "Bolder as we get Older".
