Go Off, Sis

It's homecoming season, and we're back - tapping into the unmistakable HBCU energy - the legacy, the joy, and the lessons that shape leaders. The Unbothered team is back and joined by FAMU alum and founder of The Lip Bar, Melissa Butler, to talk about turning culture into confidence, community into business, representation, and how HBCUs keep building bosses. Proudly brought to you by Target, a proud supporter of HBCUs and the entrepreneurs they inspire. 

We’re back, Sis! This Tuesday, October 14th, Go Off, Sis returns with a two-part mini season celebrating the magic of HBCUs — the cookouts, the step shows, the legacy, and the love that lasts a lifetime.Join hosts Kathleen Newman-Bremang, Sandy Pierre, and Claire Ateku as they chat with trailblazers like Melissa Butler, founder of The Lip Bar, and Love Island alum Olandria Carthen about owning your power, defining beauty, and the brilliance of Black culture on and off campus. It’s laughter, lessons, and legacy — HBCU style. 🎓💅🏾

We’re back for part-two of our cute lil two-pack centered around gathering, and in this episode we’re taking TIME to figure out what do we actually want our summer to look like. From work obligations and career ambitions to juggling side hustles while staying #1 in the group chat we’re burning the candle at both ends and this conversation is centered in how we want to replenish our mind, body and spirits this summer. We’re getting into it - from the products that keep us looking and feeling our best, our summer themes, and throwing a little shade at our 20’s, to our relationship with ambition and how we define it for ourselves and not letting our work overtake our purpose. To get into all of it we’ll be joined by our favorite earth sign, multi-hyphenated, and Go Off, Sis alum Keke (Keep A Job) Palmer to discuss her summer plans and if she’ll soon be adding award-winning chef to that list of accolades.

A LOT has happened over this past year and your faves are BACK, spinning the block and here to talk about it ALL...just in time for summer. We’re looking good, festival season is in full swing. We’re outside-outside (not a typo - we’re living) and we have a lot to get into in the first part of this two-part episode centered around gathering, in all its forms.  We’ll be clearing the air and addressing the changes we’ve seen here at R29 and Unbothered, the side effects of podcasting, addressing the DM’s, offering some career advice, and sharing how we really feel about 50/50. To add to the chat we’ll be joined by the beautiful, versatile, candid, and electric UK media personality Madame Joyce to get into it all with us.

For the first time ever the Basquiat family has opened the estate’s vault and given us the opportunity to see hundreds of never before seen works from the late great Jean-Michel Basquiat. Led by his sisters Jeanine Heriveaux and Lisane Basquiat, the Jean-Michel King Pleasure exhibit showcases rare and never before seen pieces by the late artist. In a live, intimate conversation with Chelsea cohost of Go Off, Sis at The King Pleasure Exhibit in Los Angeles, Jeanine and Lisane open up about their decision to share more of Jean-Michel’s work, the legacy he left behind, their family and ancestry, and how they’ve carried the legacy forward in their own right as sisters, mothers, and entrepreneurial Black women.
