Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu is a force and someone I wish I had met decades ago. I had such an enlightening conversation with her about racial inequality, Meghan Markle, and her viral debate with Piers Morgan.
Talking a bit about herself, Shola says,

On activism and why she uses her voice, she says,
So for me, for the longest time, it was being able to recogize in my own journey, what it means to give voice to my voice, what it means to stand in my own authenticity, what it means to recognize my roots and be proud of it. When I say roots, I don’t mean where I’m from, I mean what makes me me.
“No Filter with Naomi” is a weekly series with the most well-known innovators in the fashion, beauty and entertainment space.
