About this listen

This week we are talking di tings, with Interior Designer, Fashion Designer, Curator, and Miss Jamaica Universe 1994, Angelie Spencer.

In this episode, Angelie reflects on motherhood, her definition of the word "beautiful", and her unexpected journey to becoming Miss Universe Jamaica in 1994, describing the moment as a significant turning point in her life. She shares how the realization of winning the crown brought a profound sense of responsibility, which she refers to as "the weight of the crown." This weight, she explains, is not about external expectations but rather an internal commitment to carry herself with grace and poise. A commitment that continues to shape how she moves through the world: not with a need to impress, but with the confidence to be her full self.

Together, we explore the duality of beauty and confidence and how they can empower and isolate, the discipline of self-belief, the “let them” theory, the importance of never dimming your light, and so much more!

This episode is not only about design or pageantry. It’s about a beautiful woman who learned, over time, that choosing to show up in life as your authentic self, is perhaps the most sovereign act of all.

So grab your tea, coffee, or a glass of wine, and let’s talk di tings!
