Episode 9 | The Reality Behind the Highlight Reel (with Ryan O'Kane)

This week, the tables are turned as Jaz's husband and actor Ryan O'Kane takes over hosting duties and puts us in the hot seat. From the beauty industry and burnout to confidence, success, social media, motherhood and career pivots, we're answering questions we don't normally get asked. We chat about what we'd tell our younger selves, what success actually looks like now, the purchases we never regret, our dream treat-yourself days, and of course, the beauty products we'd take to a desert island. It's a little less beauty, a little more life, and probably our most personal episode yet. __________________________ In this episode we cover: • Ryan O'Kane takes over as host• How Hannah and Jaz first found their way into the beauty industry• The people who helped shape our careers• Growing up with difficult skin and how it changed our approach to beauty• Burnout, boundaries and learning to slow down• The pressure of always appearing "fine" online• What success means to us now versus when we were younger• The reality of balancing work, business and motherhood• Confidence, self-doubt and overthinking• What we'd tell our 16-year-old selves• Our ultimate treat-yourself days• The best beauty and wellness gifts to buy someone• The things we happily spend money on (even if we're judged for it)• Desert island beauty product picks• If we couldn't work in beauty, what careers we'd choose instead• Quick-fire beauty, skincare and lifestyle questions• Ryan discovers what dry shampoo actually does Our signature glossy* theme track by Mike Newport (@mikenewportmusic) and SIDD (@iamsiddmusic) 🎶 🎧 Listen on Spotify 📸 Follow for BTS → @glossypod 💌 Submit your Glossy dilemmas → slide into our Instagram DMsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
