Hello, hello, it's Brooke DeVard and you're listening to the naked beauty podcast.

Welcome back for another episode.

Today I'm speaking to Zara Rahim, who I have been admiring and just loving the way she

gets out into the world and works for years.

And Zara's actually had some really interesting work experience.

Now, of course, this is a beauty podcast, so we spend a lot of time talking about beauty

and skincare and her makeup and all of that great stuff.

But I had to just ask her about her career because I think it is really fascinating.

She's worked for President Barack Obama.

She's also worked at Vogue.

She's also worked at Uber.

She's also worked for Mariah Carey, which I have to be honest with you all.

As we were talking and getting into conversation, I forgot to even ask her what it was like

working with Mariah Carey.

I actually had to send a voice note to Zara just being like, just give me a few sentences

on your experience working with Mariah Carey.

And this is what she sent back.

I still don't think people really believe me when I tell them I worked with V Mariah Carey

on her book, what an amazing honor and privilege.

Imagine working with somebody who was and is deeply formative to your life in your womanhood

and the way that you experienced music and culture.

And every time we spoke, it felt like out of body, she is no bullshit.
