Amy Liu is Founder and CEO of best-selling sensitive skin-friendly beauty brand Tower 28. After graduating from the University of California San Diego, Amy got her MBA in marketing and entrepreneurship from the University of Southern California. She led a successful 20+ year career as a beauty executive, building some of the fastest-growing prestige brands including Smashbox, Kate Somerville, and Josie Maran Cosmetics. But as a longtime eczema sufferer, she couldn’t enjoy the best part of working in beauty: trying out all the products! She saw this challenge as an opportunity, and so in 2019, Amy launched Tower 28: a beauty company designed to be a safe space for sensitive skin. Tower 28’s award-winning SOS skincare line is the first to earn seals of approval from the National Psoriasis Foundation, National Rosacea Society, and National Eczema Association— a testament to its commitment to skin-safe, effective formulations. It’s also the only beauty brand to 100% adhere to the National Eczema Association’s Ingredient Guidelines across all skincare and color products, ensuring the entire line is free of every known skin irritant.

The episode I'm sharing this week is from a live recording that took place in front of a beautiful female audience last week in NYC in collaboration with one of my favorite brands, MMLaFleur, a workwear brand that was founded on the belief that when women succeed, the world becomes a better place.  This panel really ended up being this beautiful medley of an uplifting but also very real talk on career, how we define and gauge success in a post pandemic world, moments of magic that help us feel connected, and how to better lean into our intuition and internal voice.  My 3 panelists Hitha Palepu, Kristin O'Keefe, and Olivia joan are incredible and all have these varying perspectives and stories to share.  We also hear from my dear friend and intuitive business coach Alex Caoila who opens us up with a beautiful meditation - there was really just so much magic in bringing together these women that night and I'm excited to share this with you now. Check out M.M.LaFleur: https://mmlafleur.com/Follow Hitha: https://www.instagram.com/hithapalepu/Follow Kristin: https://www.instagram.com/thegirlwhosavesmoney Follow Olivia: https://www.instagram.com/_olivia_joan_/?hl=enFollow Alex: https://www.instagram.com/highpriestessofbrooklynFollow The Big Move on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/thebigmovepodcast/Follow Host Em here: https://www.instagram.com/emroberts.m/

Ramy's designs are inspired by the beautiful, strong women she has admired through her life who demand a timeless, elegant and versatile wardrobe. Her clothing evokes an uplifting, happy, and playful attitude, all while highlighting the sexiness and confidence of the woman who wears it.Ramy Brook is now sold in more than 250 boutiques nationwide, including the Ramy Brook flagship store on Madison Avenue and ramybrook.com.  The brand can also be found in retailers worldwide, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale’s and Neiman Marcus.
