In this episode of More to Say, host Amber Venz Box sits down with Dani Austin — digital creator, community builder, and founder of Divi, the haircare brand that started with one scalp serum and grew into a multi-million-dollar line now sold at Ulta nationwide.
Dani shares how she went from secretly filming “Things I Wish a Sister Taught Me” in her dorm to building an audience of 2.5M+ followers, opening up about the vulnerability that built her community, sharing hair loss struggles, and turning personal hardship into product innovation. She and Amber talk candidly about monetizing early, launching a hero product, turning “haters” into valuable feedback, balancing motherhood and business, and what’s next for Divi.
Whether you’re a creator, entrepreneur, or just curious how a dorm-room vlog became an 8-figure brand — Dani’s story is one you won’t want to miss.
