Nicole Marquis, owner of HipCityVeg, Charlie was a sinner and Bar Bombón, has always kept a dizzying pace at the office. This week, she gives listeners an insider's view of her life during the COVID-19 pandemic, which includes keeping her restaurants open for takeout and delivery and working to help the city’s restaurant industry recover. Then, NBC10Philly Live host Aunyea Lachelle joins to tell the stories of Dolaine Benjamin ‒ a licensed nail technician now making press-on nail kits for her clients ‒ and Stuff’d Buns ‒ a local food truck owned by Rachel Knable and Monica Magalhaes ‒ parlaying one good deed into weeks of feeding those on the front lines. Love + Gritwraps after a conversation with Syreeta Scott, owner of Duafe Holistic Hair Care. Syreeta has worked with Janet Jackson, Ava DuVernay, Jill Scott and Questlove and talks to Rachel, Justin and Laiya to discuss adapting her business to fit her clients’ needs and the importance of hair care and body care to mental health.
