    Lab Grown vs Natural Diamonds, The Future of Engagement Rings & Building Ring Concierge with Nicole Wegman

    05/26/2026 | 1h 1 mins.
    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Nicole Wegman, founder of Ring Concierge, to talk about the evolution of the diamond industry, lab grown vs. natural diamonds, engagement ring trends, and how she built one of the most recognizable fine jewelry brands from the ground up. Nicole breaks down the biggest misconceptions around lab grown diamonds, why engagement rings are getting bigger, the most popular diamond shapes right now, and how consumers are shifting their buying habits. We also dive into how she started Ring Concierge with just $2,000, scaled the business through Instagram before paid marketing, and disrupted a male-dominated industry by creating a more modern, fashion-forward jewelry experience for women. Nicole opens up about entrepreneurship, hiring, mistakes she’s made along the way, influencer marketing, luxury investments that actually hold value, and what it takes to build a lasting brand in a $90 billion industry. Whether you’re shopping for an engagement ring, love jewelry, or are interested in building a business, this episode is packed with insight. Enjoy!

    The Secret to Anti-Aging & Making Sunscreen Fun with Samantha Brett, Founder of Naked Sundays

    05/08/2026 | 41 mins.
    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Samantha Brett, founder of Naked Sundays to talk about the connection between sunscreen, anti-aging, and building a brand that makes SPF fun. Samantha shares her journey from TV journalist covering breaking news and devastating bushfires in Australia to launching one of the fastest-growing sunscreen brands in beauty. We dive into the moment she realized so many of her colleagues were developing skin cancer from constant sun exposure, how she built the brand while still working full-time in media, and what happened when their products sold out almost instantly after launch. We also discuss the biggest myths around SPF, why sunscreen is the cheapest and most effective anti-aging product, the areas most people forget to protect, and how Samantha is helping make daily sun protection something people actually look forward to. If you need an extra reminder to wear your sunscreen or want to hear the story behind building a beauty brand from scratch, this episode is for you. Enjoy!
