    Alicia Liu on Fashion, Food, and Building a Luxury Ice Cream Brand

    In this conversation, Trinity Rose, Brand, Marketing + Business Strategist, sits down with Alicia Liu — founder of Lavender & Truffles — to explore her path from luxury fashion and e-commerce into the food industry and consumer packaged goods. Before launching her plant-based, clean-ingredient wellness brand, Alicia worked across multiple luxury fashion houses and later with brands including Century 21, Miss Sixty, and Amazon Fashion. Alicia shares how her early experiences in fashion shaped her understanding of brand, process, and operations — and how a personal health journey led her to build a company rooted in clean ingredients and wellness. She speaks candidly about the realities of launching and scaling a product-based business, the operational demands of CPG, and the role of community and relationships in navigating entrepreneurship. The conversation also traces her evolving definition of success — from personal ambition to leadership, team support, and long-term alignment.

    David Dayan Fisher on What Remains After the Applause — A Reckoning with Success and Happiness

    In this engaging conversation, Trinity Rose, Brand, Marketing + Business Strategist, interviews David Dayan Fisher—an evolutionist, actor, author, and artist—on his path from a troubled childhood in England, through London’s club scene, to pursuing his dreams in Hollywood, and ultimately finding inner peace through spiritual psychology. David reflects on the impact of childhood trauma, family dynamics, and the pursuit of external validation, alongside the lesser-discussed emotional and psychological complexities that can accompany visibility and success. He speaks candidly about fame, personal loss, and the inner reckoning that led him toward emotional healing, spiritual inquiry, and a redefinition of success rooted in alignment rather than achievement.
