Summary

Today’s guest is Tamu McPherson, the beloved tastemaker and storyteller behind All the Pretty Birds. Born in Jamaica and raised in New York, Tamu left behind a career in law to pursue love and her creative passions, carving out a space in fashion, photography, and media with her vibrant perspective. She founded All the Pretty Birds, a platform that champions diverse voices and celebrates personal style, and she’s recently expanded her vision into the world of hospitality with two exciting projects: a joyful tabletop and picnic collaboration with Italian design house Bitossi Home, and her own rosé wine, Tamu Rosé, created with a winery close to her heart. Tamu joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her ideal picnic set-up in Italy, why rosé is her ultimate summer sip, and how embracing la dolce vita is really about savoring beauty, community, and connection.
