All the Cool Girls

How do you learn to trust your instincts - and keep trusting them once everyone else starts paying attention? Laura Brown and Kristina O’Neill sit down with designer and entrepreneur Gabriela Hearst for a candid conversation about intuition, ambition, success, setbacks, and staying grounded through all of it. From following her instincts when the path ahead wasn’t obvious to knowing when to tune out the noise, she opens up about ambition, setbacks, and how to ignore the bullshit.

What’s the difference between 15 seconds of viral fame and an audience that actually sticks around? This week, Laura and Kristina sit down with Kevin Allocca—author of Videocracy and Global Director of Culture & Trends at YouTube—to talk about the real math behind modern internet attention. Before he was tracking global trends at YouTube, Kevin faced his own career derailment: getting let go from The Huffington Post. He shares what that setback taught him, how he pivoted into tech, and why getting fired might just be the best prerequisite for finding your true lane. Plus, Kevin breaks down the vital distinction between chasing viral hits and building a loyal, long-term audience, sharing what creators and brand-builders get wrong about online longevity.

All the Cool Girls… launch a pod on June 11th! All the Cool Girls is the video and audio destination for transforming career setbacks and unexpected life events into powerful comebacks. Hosted by Laura Brown, former Editor in Chief of InStyle, and Kristina O’Neill, former Editor in Chief of WSJ Magazine, All the Cool Girls is about embracing change, rethinking your emotional attachment to your career, and moving on with resilience and purpose. After losing their jobs at the height of their respective careers, Laura and Kristina turned vulnerability into a movement. They famously posted, “All the coolest girls get fired” alongside a picture of the two of them together, owning their experience and ready to take on the next chapter. Following the release of their bestselling book, All the Cool Girls Get Fired, Laura and Kristina are continuing the conversation with the Cool Girl community with a brand-new podcast. Each week, they’ll be joined by influential trailblazers and experts to share a roadmap of information and stories, united by optimism and resilience. New episodes begin Thursday, June 11.
