Defining “Cool” Ft Recho Omondi
“To me the coolest people, the people that I'm inspired by, are people who are just 100% themselves.” - my guest, friend, and designer Recho Omondi on trying to define the intangible quality of coolness. I could speak to Recho for *hours* and this live episode, all about expression, is no exception. Listen to hear us discuss:
- Developing a unique personal style
- How moving around growing up influenced her sense of self
- Finding your people on the internet (so important)
- Why there’s power in not needing validation
- Why Recho never cared if people liked what she liked
- Getting into beauty later in life
- Her hair story from bleach to braids
- The phenomenon of plastic surgery
- Tapping into self-confidence & trusting your intuition
