Summary

Tapping into one’s best self can take some work. Luckily Mikki Taylor (@IAmMikkiTaylor), Essence’s longtime beauty expert, has written a blueprint in her current book, Editor-in-Chief: How to Style and Be Your Most Empowered Self. Mikki gives a preach and a prayer on renewing one’s self-worth, style and senses. Plus, fall TV is in full swing and we’re chatting with Star’s Ryan Destiny (@RyanDestiny). NOTE: Sorry in advance to those listening to this episode in your headphones, Mercury was in full retrograde when we recorded the Mikki interview and Cori's mic was tripping.
