Jennifer Harper ”Reclaiming Our Identity”

In this week's episode of the A Walk In My Stilettos podcast, I bring you another inspiring story of resilience.

Jennifer Harper is the founder and CEO of Cheekbone Beauty Cosmetics INC. Cheekbone Beauty’s mission is to help every Indigenous youth see and feel their enormous value in the world while creating sustainable colour cosmetics.

Jennifer Harper has been making a name for herself in the beauty industry for a number of years but has been gaining popularity quickly after being on the hit CBC show, Dragons Den. In addition to Cheekbone’s mission, she strives to educate as many people as possible about the Residential School System and the effects it has had on family and friends through decades of generational trauma.

Tune in to hear how she is reclaiming her identity and helping others do the same!

We discussed:

🎙being sober since 2016 after a battle with alcoholism

🎙removing the shame of generational trauma

🎙processing grief at the same time as launching a new company

🎙creating a brand that allows Indigenous youth to feel represented

🎙and much more...
