Hello, hello, it's Brooke DeVard and you're listening to The Naked Beauty Podcast.

I am still on my travel.

I went to Tokyo.

I had an incredible time, like truly the best time.

I can't wait to do a deep dive episode on all of the beauty findings there.

And now I'm in the Hampton, spending time with family.

I've been reunited with

my son. We're having the absolute best time. Shout out to all my Leo's. It's finally Leo's season.

My birthday's coming up pretty soon. And a huge theme for me this August is rest, relaxation,

setting time to refocus and just get my life together before the fall starts. I cannot believe we're

almost at the end of summer. You all are going to love this episode with Candice and you are really

in for such a treat. Like I could listen to this woman speak for hours and hours and hours.

She's incredibly smart, incredibly funny. And we get into like beauty conversation, but we also

get into a very deep conversation about interracial dating and self-acceptance and knowing when to drop

toxic friends. I mean, we really run the gamut throughout this whole conversation. And I'm very

grateful to Candice for coming on the show and sharing so much with us. Now, if you're listening to

the podcast and you love the podcast, please take the time to rate and review. And I do go through the reviews, so I really appreciate them. If you want to drop your social handle in the reviews, I can send you a little DM to thank you as well. But I really appreciate when you take the time to review the podcast to help other people find naked beauty. And as you're listening, I also super appreciate if you share on social. You can tag me

at Naked Beauty Planet or at Brooke DeVard. You know I always love to hear from you all. Listening back to

this episode has made me feel very excited and just grateful that I have a platform where I'm able to

have conversations with interesting, inspiring women that I admire. And gosh, this is one of, I think,

my favorite interviews this year. Let's get into it. Candice, welcome to naked beauty. I am so

excited for this conversation. Author, mother of two, fashion inspiration, beauty inspiration, but also for me, and I don't know how you're going to feel about this, TikToker. Yes. When I see you come across my for you page, it's, I like before you even said the first, because I'm just happy to see your face before you've said anything. I'm just like, double tap. I love your content so much. I love everything you have to say. And I love what a strong point of view you have and that you share so openly. So I know this is going to be a great conversation. No, thank you for having me. Major plan of the podcast. So thank you for having me. Oh, and I forgot to add podcaster as well, podcaster as well. And I know you just finished your season, but people can go back and listen.
