Hey, I’m JOSANTA

Your Host & Biz Bestie

Before I became a beauty boss and retail strategist, I was a journalist telling compelling stories for outlets like CBS, Access Hollywood, and many more. Now, I’m dusting off those storytelling skills to bring you candid conversations with the founders and innovators shaping the retail world. As someone who’s helped brands land in 10,000+ retail doors and generate over $25M in sales, I know what it takes to succeed in this space—and I know the right questions to ask.

Time to turn those shelf dreams into reality!
