Making Money Moves is a brand new podcast brought to you by Janet’s List, hosted by Janet Oganah and Adonica Simmons. The aim of our podcast is to open up conversations about money, mindset and the moves people have made to build successful businesses.

If you are a female entrepreneur, a high impact woman or are simply looking for inspiration, this podcast is for you. We interview inspiring guests, mostly women of colour, who are building incredible businesses. Our guests will also share tips and strategies, which you can apply at any stage of your entrepreneurial journey.

We loved our conversation with Kay Montano, makeup artist extraordinaire, creative director and co-founder of inclusive beauty platform ThandieKay. She gave us the scoop on how her first ever copy of Vogue magazine captivated her teenage mind, how a chance meeting with an 80s band front woman led her to work with fashion’s finest, and how working with megastar musician Prince on a shoot directed by actress Salma Hayek tops her list of impactful projects with the super gifted (and not the famous-for-fame’s-sake, thank you very much).

Kay speaks about grounding yourself to recognise what matters in life, reveals how she’s worked freelance for her entire career, talks partnership between herself and actress Thandie Newton, close friend an co-conspirator in shaking up the beauty world with a more inclusive narrative, and makes an exclusive product announcement about upcoming goodies from the ThandieKay brand.

In this minisode, we discuss the contents of Kay's makeup bag (and our makeup bags as well)!
