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.

The Dark Side of Pop: Was Lou Pearlman a Genius or a Villain? Michael Johnson Breaks It Down (The Edge)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/72585594-5ec7-4dd1-9634-b1f7000be0e2/transcript

As this long, energetically heavy year winds down, Kelly opens the episode with a few life updates before diving into a conversation that hits especially hard right now. She and Chip explore the kind of burnout that doesn’t always look like burnout—the invisible labor people carry, the quiet “tolerations” that drain energy, and the subtle emotional loads that build over time.

They break down how these often-overlooked stressors lead to deeper exhaustion, mental fatigue, and resentment long before most of us recognize what’s happening. It’s a grounded, relatable look at what many are feeling as the year closes out and a reminder of what’s worth evaluating before stepping into a new chapter.

If things have felt heavier than usual or you’re craving clarity heading into the new year, this conversation offers perspective that might land exactly where it’s needed.

The Truth-Telling Energies of December (The Velvet)

Kelly and Chip discuss the new reality of texting being the most used format for communication in our culture in 2024. They debate on certain texting etiquette, response times, lack of response at all and how a lot of the issues still boil down to bad communication skills. 
"It's like our technology has evolved with mass communication, but our emotional intelligence has not." 
Kelly also brings up the difference between generations on response time via text and it's actually the opposite of what you may assume.
