On this week's episode, I'm joined by one of my favorite content creators and friend, Tierra Conyers. Known online as Ya Big Sistah, Tierra combines her love of anime and makeup to create one-of-a-kind, gorgeous looks! Tierra also uses her social media platforms to talk about anime, mental health, racism, fatphobia, and more. Not to mention her thirsting over our fave fictional characters! We get into her love of makeup, creating content online, dealing with trolls, mental health, and so much more.
