On this week’s episode of Naked Beauty, BET’s Style Director Danielle Prescod is back for a deeply personal and honest conversation about body image, IVF treatment, mental health, and finding what makes you happy.

Ghosting Therapists
The choice to go on medication
IVF Weight Gain & how it impacts her self-esteem

Ep. 89: Unapologetically Me Ft Julee Wilson, Global Beauty Director of Essence
"I'm a size 16 black woman with natural hair who's big and broad and takes up a lot of space. And I'm unapologetic about it. I'm dope." - my guest, Julee Wilson, Global Beauty Director of Essence
When it comes to beauty, Julee Wilson is all about showing up with authenticity and confidence. Her unique childhood within the Mormon community at home, and within the Quaker community at boarding school, inspired her progressive, open-minded and creative approach to beauty. Wilson continuously advocates for the representation of black women in the beauty industry, all while being a kick-ass mom!
