Curated and Crafted Podcast
Curated & Crafted is a podcast for founders, creatives, and experience-makers who are building brands with substance. Hosted by Dominique & Kinsey, two women navigating leadership in the luxury event and beverage space, this show explores the real work behind unforgettable businesses—without the fluff, the filters, or the formula.
Each episode is a conversation at the intersection of brand, mindset, and execution. We talk about what it means to lead with intention, stay rooted while scaling, and keep showing up when the vision feels heavy.
You’ll hear unfiltered insights on visibility, burnout, systems, boundaries, creative sustainability, and the nuances of building something that lasts. We also sit down with other brand builders, beverage innovators, event pros, and thought leaders who are crafting their businesses—and their lives—with clarity and soul.
This isn’t just about business. It’s about becoming.
So grab your drink, get inspired, and let’s craft something worth remembering.
