#17: Julee Wilson on the Long Journey to Becoming Beauty Director at Cosmopolitan

In this episode of The Idealists. (formerly Grit & Grace), entrepreneur and host Melissa Kiguwa interviews Julee Wilson, Beauty Director at Cosmopolitan. Julee currently leads the brand's robust beauty coverage across all print, digital, and social platforms. Previously, Julee was Global Beauty Director at Essence and Senior Fashion Editor at Huffington Post. She shares her stories about trying to make it in the fashion industry— including charging a $5000 dress for an interview— and how transparency is necessary to move social media culture forward. 

Correction in audio: Helen Gurley Brown was Cosmo's Editor in Chief for 32 years, but she was not the founder.
