After a short hiatus to be able to focus attention on the current state of the nation and support Black Lives Matter, James and Danessa get on to talk about the state of now and how you can educate yourself, take a part and stand up for what you believe in. 

This week James and Danessa want to let you know that it is ok to be down and feel unmotivated in this time of crisis and talk about makeup not only as a career but an identity and how to move forward. 

This week James and Danessa have an updated chat with Jake Aebly (@makeupbyjake) about the future of kit and on-set hygiene. A must-listen episode for all beauty professionals.

Things are still strange out there and a lot of artists have been reaching out about how they are going back to work now or in the near future. This week in response to all of the questions, James and Danessa talk about the future of the industry and what makeup will look like post COVID-19 as well as tackle smart ways to build your kit for the new future to be able to guarantee proper sanitation. 

This week James and Danessa talk about hindsight and revisiting yourself and your work when you once thought you were at your best. Revisiting your past and looking to the future. 

This week James and Danessa get on together to talk about how spending this tough time revisiting old hobbies reminds you of other skills we all possess and how to monetize them if we so choose. 

How can we try and keep ourselves positive in the face of so much uncertainty? That is exactly the question James and Danessa get online with each other to discuss this week. We have found a way to get better audio as well. Thanks for being patient with us. 

This week James and Danessa get on the phone again to talk about the current state of affairs and shed some light on just what is happening right now in New York City and also talk about some things you can be doing to take advantage of the extra time we all have right now.
