Where Are The Tastemakers Now? Podcast Interview w/Riche Holmes Grant

This year I launched The Moodboard Podcast to continue the discussions around race, culture, and interior design all year long. Today, listen to a special Mother’s Day Edition with Host of #Therichelife on Youtube, Riche Holmes Grant.

Riche Holmes Grant is the host and executive producer of “The Riche Life" an inspirational how-to web series featuring home decor, entertaining, cooking, DIY and self-care/personal growth tips to help other women live their richest lives too (pun totally intended!).
