Summary

Courteney Cox is best known for her iconic role as Monica on the hit sitcom Friends, but she’s also a director, a producer, and now a businesswoman. Her newest project, Homecourt, is a brand of elevated homecare products that aims to deliver goods that are as thoughtfully designed as the skincare we use on our bodies. Think of them as beauty products for the home. Her nontoxic products include dish soap, hand soap, lotion, and surface spray, all formulated by skincare chemists and perfumers. On this episode, Cox gives us a glimpse into her early life growing up in Alabama and explains how a fateful dance with Bruce Springsteen changed the course of her career forever. Plus, she dives into what it’s like to be a business owner and what the process of creating a new brand entailed.
