This week on Inside Hilton's Head, we take a field trip to Brooklyn, New York, to meet NYC-based artist Frank Frances! We dive into Frank’s fascinating background, exploring how his upbringing has shaped his unique artistic style. Plus, we get the inside scoop on his incredible work with Elle Decor, Target, West Elm and Architectural Digest, including what it was like photographing some of the world’s biggest celebrities in their homes!

And, of course, we couldn’t resist a speed round where things get spicy: film vs. digital—who wins? You’ll have to tune in to find out!

This week, I had the great privilege of chatting with Amber Garrison, Global Brand President of Origins. We discussed her personal Origins origin story, how to commit to and reach for excellence, and the dangerous mistake of pursuing perfection instead. We shared our wellness journeys to figure out how to be our best-- from meditation to skincare, sleep to quality time with those we love.

This week, I got to sit down with fellow Baltimore native and dear friend, D Watkins, a prolific and beyond talented author and artist. While D and I both grew up in Baltimore, our paths to success weren't paved the same. We got deep into what Baltimore meant to us growing up, how it’s shaped who we are, growing our brands here and the power of having a good group of people around you.

D Watkins is professor at the University of Baltimore and the Editor at Large at Salon.com. He was a writer on the HBO series We Own This City and New York Times bestselling and award winning author of The Beast Side, The Cook Up, Where Tomorrows Aren’t Promised, We Speak for Ourselves and Black Boy Smile. He most recently won a 2024 James Beard Media award!
