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.

In this follow-up to Kelly’s conversation with Dr. Alexandra Sowa, author of The Ozempic Revolution, Chip shares his personal experience with GLP-1 medications like Ozempic. From the unexpected challenges to the ways it’s impacted his life, Chip offers an honest look at what being on this medication is really like.

Kelly and Chip also dive into the stigma surrounding weight loss medications, the shifting perspective on obesity as a disease, and how these conversations are reframing the way we think about health. They explore the emotional side of weight loss—how it ties into identity and self-worth—and reflect on the bigger picture: Is Ozempic just another quick fix, or can it be part of a meaningful, long-term approach to wellness?

This episode is a candid and relatable take on a complex topic, offering insights that go beyond the headlines.
