Meet Jackie Aina Asamoah, entrepreneur, creator, and cultural icon. She’s spent over a decade breaking beauty standards and building a brand that doesn’t just sell — it speaks. But before the campaigns, candles, and viral truth-telling, there was the climb. The unseen sacrifices and quiet moments of choosing herself.

A lot of us know Jackie as the glamorous force behind FORVR Mood or as the voice who made space for Black women in the beauty industry. But in this episode, you’ll meet her as a woman first. Sharp, self-aware, and unafraid to say the hard thing out loud.

We talk identity, legacy, and the pressure to perform perfection. Jackie opens up about confidence, compromise, and the backlash that comes with taking up space.

From the private doubts to the public wins, Jackie tells all in The Deep End.
