This week's episode is a sunshiney one. Recorded at the Emerge music festival, I've been eager to release it since we recorded it. Today's guest London Kaye is a street artist based in LA. Her unique use of crochet to create art pieces made entirely of yarn has brought smiles to communities around the world and has allowed London to create a business out of something handmade. She's way cool and has been featured everywhere from the NYT to NBC to billboards in times square, in this episode we talk about who she went from working at the apple store to crafting her creative career of something non-tech related.

Listen – my skin is really sensitive so I don’t try out a lot of products, but I’ve been using Bioclarity for YEARS and I’m really excited they’re sponsoring the podcast. They’re a clean, green, skin care company that is cruelty-free, paraben-free, sulfate-free, and have no artificial fragrances. It’s helped me a lot with the hyper pigmentation from acne scars. I use their clear skin routine for combination/oily breakout prone skin. They have other skin care regiments but that’s the one that I use right now. It comes with everything you need to make your skin look great. It’s not overly drying, it helps with redness and events out my skin tone. It’s a 3 step process cleanse, treat and restore. I used their spot treatment for a pimple I had the other day but when I woke up the next day and it was gone. I honestly love this stuff and I hope you guys give it a try because they’re offering Let It Out listeners a really good deal.
