Issa Rae On Embracing Your Unique Beauty & Creating Your Own Path | Naked Beauty Podcast

Issa Rae, actress, producer, and serial entrepreneur talked about all things beauty and self care on this week’s episode. Issa shared what it was like growing in L.A. and how a trip to Senegal reaffirmed her beauty when she was still in high school. We talked about her iconic looks on Insecure and she underscored how exciting it was to have collaborated with the talented crew who built the worlds so many of us love. Talking about her successful projects led us to an interesting discussion about why she has avoided most cosmetic procedures and embraced what others in the industry might perceive as flaws. When we talked about her many businesses, including her stake in a sailing team, she reiterated that her collaboration with other brilliant people is what has made these ventures so successful.
