Episode Description

#242: Isan Elba has been a filmmaker, DJ, mental health advocate, content creator, and now the founder of Beauty Access, a nonprofit reimagining what beauty access should actually look like. In this episode, she gets real about redefining success on her own terms, what it’s actually like growing up with an A-list dad, and why she’s more focused on impact than optics. We get into everything from imposter syndrome and self-worth to launching a purpose-driven brand in your 20s, and the moments that helped her stop playing small. Isan doesn’t hold back—and if you’re navigating a pivot, questioning your next move, or working on your confidence, her story will hit home.
