We can't believe it: we've officially wrapped Season One of #FunForeverPodcast! We had to do it BIG and close the show with our homegirl, Rachael F*cking Finley, aka @instasteak. Steak is an Internet Icon, serial entrepreneur, creative genius, and author of the highly-anticipated memoir, Nobody Ever Told Me Anything. Listen in to learn all about her wild ride of a life, her best business advice, her thoughts on social media, and what to expect from her debut book — available for pre-order NOW. 

Thank you to Rachael for sharing her rad light with us, and thank you to every single guest and subscriber of our pod. It's been FUN. Stay tuned for Season Two in 2023!

In the in-between moments, Zoila enjoys volunteering her time to support youth development, dancing like a maniac, tending to her growing plant familia, indulging in fashion and cooking all the intricate and overly complicated meals.

There's no one like @ccsheffield. This actress, singer, DJ, muse, investor, and brand owner is in a league all of her own. If you don't know the name (impossible), you most definitely have seen The Face. You know, the one that was sprawled all over The Cobrasnake's website in the early 2000s. These days, CC is a booked and busy single supermom that has a ton up her sleeve — most recently the launch of her USA-made small batch dyed sweats brand, Spirit Celeste. Enjoy, and shop her brand at: https://spiritceleste.com

We sat down with OG influencer/content creator, @tayehansberry! She's one of Natalie's longtime friends — they've known each other for over a decade and were deep in LA's fashion & beauty blogger scene from the start. Taye started as an actress/stylist and photographer, and took the industry by storm when she launched her blog, Stuff She Likes, in 2010. While she's certainly made her mark in LA, she's also a proud Creole girl with one side of her family from Chicago and the other side New Orleans.

Taye comes from a long line of creative powerhouses — she's the niece of iconic American Playwright Lorraine Hansberry (she wrote "A Raisin in the Sun" and was the first Black female author to have a play performed on Broadway), is the granddaughter of Vincent Tubbs (former editor of both Ebony and Jet magazines, and was the first Black publicist at Warner Bros), and her cousin is the amazing Issa Rae (of HBO’s Insecure).
