Velvet's Edge with Kelly Henderson

The Velvet's Edge Podcast is an invitation to explore the beautiful, messy truth that real growth is an inside job. Hosted by Kelly Henderson—a celebrity stylist and men's groomer who has learned firsthand that "looking good" on the outside only gets you so far—this podcast is a space for the conversations you don't always hear out loud. Life has a way of knocking us flat, and Kelly believes there is purpose in that pain. She uses her own journey of plot twists to show that true beauty is found by going inward. On some days, you'll hear deep dives with therapists, healers, and other people who have turned their pain into something beautiful. On other days, Kelly and Chip Dorsch laugh their way through the weird, messy "WTF is this life?" moments, because growth is easier when you and your bestie can laugh through it together. This podcast is for you if you've ever felt empty despite doing everything you were "supposed to" do. It's for you if you're stuck in a toxic relationship cycle and don't know how to get out. It's for you if you're in the middle of a total life plot twist and have no idea where to start. You aren't broken beyond repair. You are simply a human on a soul's journey, and even though we each have our own path, it's a lot easier when we have a little help from our friends.

    Modern Dating, Swipe Culture & What Actually Creates Lasting Love with April Beyer (The Velvet)

    Dating feels harder than ever. Dating apps, endless options, and swipe culture have left many people confused, burned out, and questioning what actually leads to real love. In this episode, Kelly talks with April Beyer, a 25-year professional matchmaker and founder of LEVEL Connections, about why modern dating feels broken — and what truly creates lasting relationships. With an 89% matchmaking success rate and hundreds of marriages, April shares what she’s learned from decades of helping people find long-term love. They explore why more options don’t lead to better choices, how swipe culture keeps people stuck in evaluation mode, and why chemistry and “spark” are often confused with emotional connection. April explains why relatability, emotional safety, and self-awareness matter more than shared interests or attraction, and how unresolved patterns quietly shape who we choose. The conversation also covers why matchmaking works differently than dating apps, how third-party guidance helps interrupt self-sabotage, and where AI can support dating — without replacing human intuition. If you’re feeling discouraged by dating or stuck in the same relationship patterns, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and a grounded reframe on what actually lasts.

    February Astrology 2026. New Moons, Saturn in Aries & What’s Being Rebuilt with Master Astrologer Marvin Wilkerson (The Velvet)

    Early 2026 brings astrology that doesn’t whisper—it demands clarity. In this episode, Kelly is joined by Master Astrologer Marvin Wilkerson to explore the Capricorn and Aquarius New Moons shaping January and February 2026, along with the deeper planetary shifts redefining identity, responsibility, and direction. Pluto’s influence pushes honest conversations, firm decisions, and the dismantling of structures that no longer support growth. Neptune’s move into Aries begins a rare 165-year cycle, awakening spiritual courage and the desire to live with greater authenticity. The Leo Full Moon spotlights self-expression and the need to be seen for who you truly are, while Saturn’s entrance into Aries asks for maturity, patience, and sustainable action. This conversation focuses on what it means to rebuild with intention—choosing integrity over impulse, consistency over performance, and long-term alignment over short-term approval.
