In this episode, I sit down with Alicia Grande, the CEO and founder of Grande Cosmetics and the powerhouse behind the number-one lash and brow serum in America for nearly 20 years.
From building a beauty empire while staying grounded to navigating marriage, motherhood, and the judgment that often comes with female success, Alicia shares her story with a level of openness I know you’ll truly appreciate. This conversation is not just about beauty or business, it’s about identity, resilience, community, and what it really takes to flourish in midlife.
