Uoma Beauty’s self-proclaimed “weirdo in chief” is here to inspire! She shares the rebellious path she took from teenage beauty entrepreneur in Nigeria to head of her own company, and opens up about the difficulties she faced as a Black woman in the corporate world and why she’s doing things differently now that she’s in charge. Plus, Sharon offers her honest take on the beauty industry’s efforts to become more diverse and inclusive over the past 15 months and explains why she'll continue to fight for economic opportunities for Black communities.
