Alexa Curtis- CEO and Founder of Be Fearless; Perfecting Your Pitch To Land Your Next Brand Partnership, Ideal Client, Or Career Move

3/19/2024
Born and raised in a small town in Mansfield, Connecticut, Alexa Curtis knew she didn’t fit into the “normal social mold”. When she was 7 years old, her father was wrongfully convicted of a heinous crime and put in a maximum security prison. By the age of 12, her father was released from jail but during that challenging period of life, Alexa started writing and expressing herself through fashion to help her cope, starting a fashion blog; A Life in the Fashion Lane which became a platform for her to express her feelings about everything relating to teens, body image, and mental health. As Alexa evolved, her blog naturally shifted from fashion to discussing sensitive topics that teens and young adults face every day. A Life in the Fashion Lane was changed to Life Unfiltered with Alexa Curtis. It became a lifestyle website and podcast for teens & parents discussing topics such as social media and mental health. Not only did Alexa turn her little fashion blog into a full-time lifestyle platform for teens, but through cold-pitching, she got sponsored by brands like British Airways, T-Mobile, Lands' End, and more. Today, on top of helping her consulting clients pitch themselves with her tried and true framework, Alexa is the CEO and founder of Be Fearless and the Be Fearless Summit, a pop-up summit that appeared at Drexel University right before we were in a pandemic lockdown in 2020 and has since premiered at UCONN, Vanderbilt, Central Connecticut State University, and UC Berkeley. Alexa has spoken at numerous colleges; (Northeastern, UConn, Eastern Connecticut, Rutgers) along with high schools – discussing how to be fearless as well as on mental health and social media. Alexa has had the honor of speaking alongside Amal Clooney and Serena Williams at Penn Women and in Sept 2018, she added ‘host’ to her arsenal as she launched her own radio show on Radio Disney called “Fearless Every Day” with Alexa Curtis which was the first of its kind and broke new ground for the Radio Disney where Alexa interviewed various guests who shared their journey of overcoming obstacles/challenges and chasing after their dreams. Recently, Be Fearless Summit was acquired by upskilling and mentorship platform GrasshoppHer. Alexa works with the co-founder Heather Miller on their membership model and reinvented career fairs.

Nicky Bandera- Feeding Those In Need Through Food and Fashion, One Tomato At A Time

12/5/2023
Nicky Bandera lays out her path to creating Project Paulie pretty simply stating, “I just started cooking.” In March 2020, as the world locked down due to the pandemic, Nicky Bandera found herself and many of her friends, family, & colleagues out of work. She knew she had to do something, so she started cooking. At 5:00am each morning, Nicky would start making her mom’s sauce and baking lasagna for the people in her circle who needed a little boost. Before she could realize the impact, the circle grew and she had sent over 2000 lasagnas to people in need, with the support of a core group of friends and her surrounding community who helped sponsor and deliver the care packages. That’s how “we feed each other," is how Project Paulie was born. Nicky wanted to keep going but realized that maybe baking thousands of lasagnas each morning was not sustainable. Tapping into her fashion design background, Nicky worked with local artists to create the Project Paulie Tomato and featured it on a series of beanies. Each beanie color was assigned to a local organization, which would then receive proceeds from each hat sale. In August 2022, operations moved out of Nicky’s home and into Project Paulie’s official headquarters (“the House”) on Prince Street in the North End of Boston, MA. The "Little Tomato" is a reminder of where Project Paulie started, symbolizing the tomato sauce Nicky made for all those lasagnas. When people ask “What’s the tomato all about?”, it’s an opportunity to talk about the organizations supported by the purchase of each hat, and maybe a chance to get people to connect and think of ways we can all help our community. #wefeedeachother Learn More About Project Paulie Project Paulie Instagram Nicky Bandera Instagram Learn more about your ad choices.

Cate Luzio- Creating A Luminary Community To Help You Invest In Your Future

11/21/2023
Why is it important for women to have safe spaces to learn, connect, and talk about taboo topics normally not discussed in your typical social settings (aka how much money you make) when it applies to your professional life? Why as women, is it so hard for us to find communities where we feel comfortable sharing our challenges and struggles around work/life issues and not feel shamed for our choices or decisions? In my conversation with Cate Luzio, we addressed all of the above and MORE juicy topics around harnessing the confidence to show up more authentically in all aspects of life and how investing in yourself is the BEST money spent, yet the hardest to buy into.
