A self-professed drama kid turned Certified Hormonal Specialist, Paige Lindgren never in a million years thought she’d have a career creating content about where the best salad is in LA to how to create a blood sugar balanced plate. Her passion for simplifying how to live a more hormonal balanced life came from her own medical diagnosis that challenged her to get back to the basics when it came to eating and she’s cultivating a community and a platform built on truly trusting your gut while healing yourself from the inside out. 

Interview Highlights: 

• Sometimes, the simplest things can have the greatest impact 
• Vulnerability can create community and provide resources that may not have always existed 
• When passion meets determination and purpose, the opportunities are limitless

Kier Gaines is a licensed therapist who’s building brave spaces for men, especially Black men, to have the agency to heal, learn  and grow in a world that often forgets they exist. After the video of him and daughter discussing life and therapy went viral two years ago after the tragic murder of George Floyd, Kier has since become an online personality where he uses his skills as a therapist to challenge himself and his community to heal and grow mentally while the world continues to change around them. As he shares his life and family with the world, Kier is truly on a mission to encourage everyone to discover the unapologetic versions of themselves that they often hide in order to fit in. 

Interview Highlights: 

• • Same skills, different stage - use all of life’s teachings to navigate the journey of life and the path of self-discovery 
  • We must allow space for people to be 100% themselves, unapologetically in order to give others the same permission to show up as their fullselves 
  • Creating brave spaces where men can heal, learn and grow allows them to increase their bandwidth to be able to show up for the people in their lives that need them the most

Who’s on Content chats with Venita Aspen, DBA client and star of Bravo TV’s hit reality shot, “Southern Charm,” regarding the content of keeping it real when your life is shared online and on tv. Aspen discusses her southern roots; love for food and fashion, while detailing the difficulties of being herself in a world where people define you before truly getting to know you. While reality tv has taken over mainstream media, Aspen hopes that by sharing her life online, she can show her community and show fans the Black woman she’s becoming that honors her Southern roots while challenging stereotypes and inspiring more dialogue about what it means to be from the South. 

Interview Highlights: 

• Even if something is a passion of yours, it’s okay to pivot from it if it doesn’t bring you joy in the way you imagined or want it to 
• Honoring who you are is hard, but necessary when sharing your life online and on TV.
• Your community wants to know the “real you” not who you portray to be - this builds trust and support when the pressure to show up online is too much
