My guest this week is Danielle Prescod, style director at BET and former Nylon Magazine intern (it’s relevant, I promise!). We’re discussing your questions about being a woman in the workplace and navigating a toxic office environment, how to handle bad dates (no ghosting required!), and being a supportive sibling in the midst of difficult family dynamics.
