'You don’t need to find your voice, you need to figure out what your voice sounds like.'
Best-selling author of More Than Enough, Elaine Welteroth has mastered the art of finesse. Not only has the former Teen Vogue Editor-in-Chief written an entire book full of pointers for people who want to lead a purposeful career, but she’s also dropped major tea on her rise to success as a Black woman in the fashion industry.
“Everyone has a story to tell, whether or not they want to publish it,” she said in her opening remarks. “This moment is particularly personal to me because my grandma Maggie just passed away and she was my ultimate influence into my own Black identity,” she revealed. In More than Enough, you’ll read about Welteroth’s endearing trips to deep south Georgia to visit her grandma Maggie as well as her socially awkward experiences as a mixed-race teen in high school and college.
View this post on Instagram Episode 10: “WHAT DO YOU STAND FOR?” This season each of the @projectrunwaybravo judges got a chance to create a challenge. Mine aired last night.

It was the most emotional episode for many of us for different reasons.
Still, I knew that anyone who came out unscathed after a closed-door meeting with Anna Wintour would have some bomb salary negotiation tips. “Take your time,” the Project Runway judge said. “You are always entitled to a night to think through negotiation and how you want to approach it. Know your floor and ceiling. Know what you’re aiming for, ask for it, you just might get it. And know the lowest number is that you will stay for. Be prepared to walk away if you don’t land on the floor.
