SHOWER THOUGHTS

WITH GlowJob Podcast
Julia and Sasa are the hosts of GlowJob, the beauty podcast that makes you smarter—and maybe even a little hotter. As best friends with a deep passion for beauty, they bring sharp insight, honest conversation, and a healthy dose of wit to every episode. From culture to business to science, GlowJob explores the topics shaping beauty today.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU FELT INSPIRED?

Sasa: One of our podcast listeners emailed us saying that whenever they listen to the show, they feel connected to something bigger. The reminder that our banter can build community, was a jolt of motivation. There’s something powerful about helping people feel seen in a world that rarely slows down to notice them. Julia: I visited my childhood bedroom recently and found an old diary where I’d written about wanting to work in beauty. I felt this rush of pride, not because I made it, but because I never stopped dreaming that big.

WHAT DO YOU VALUE THE MOST ABOUT YOURSELF AND WHY?

We both agreed it’s our ability to call bullsh*t on beauty standards, business norms, fake friendships, and bad lighting. Being direct is a love language, and we use it to uplift, not tear down.

WHAT'S ONE THING YOU THINK OTHER PEOPLE OVERVALUE?

Julia: Minimalism. Not everything needs to be beige and silent to be taken seriously. Sometimes maximalism is honest. Sasa: Exclusivity. If the club, product, or person only feels special because other people can’t access it... maybe it’s not actually that special.

WHAT DOES THE WORD 'WELLBEING' MEAN TO YOU?

It’s less green juice and more boundaries. Wellbeing is having the space to say “no” and the freedom to say “yes” — to rest, to joy, to whatever makes you feel most like yourself.

WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH WATER?

Sasa: I drink a liter before coffee. I mist between meetings. I’d marry a bottle of Evian if it could pay rent. Julia: If I’m dehydrated, I’m immediately having a bad day. I once cried because my Owala Bottle got dented.

IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING ABOUT YOUR DAILY ROUTINE, WHAT WOULD THAT BE?

Julia: I'd love to stop multitasking through every moment. Doing my skincare while answering texts while planning dinner? It's a lot. I want to start honoring each task instead of surviving them. Sasa: I’d slow down and stop treating every day like a to-do list. I want to make space for joy that doesn’t have an agenda.

WHAT WOULD YOUR STARTER PACK INCLUDE?

The OG 'Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF’, Never ending iMessage chain between Julia & Sasa, Extraaaa Dirty Martini, The Ordinary: Glycolic Toner, Rode Podcaster Mic, Apple MacBook Pro, Fenty Gloss Bomb (Shade: Fu$$y), Glossier You Perfume, Sephora Rouge Status

HAVE YOU HAD ANY INTERESTING SHOWER THOUGHTS LATELY?

Why do some people like certain foods while others might not, if they all taste the same? Is it nature, nurture, or do we genetically experience taste differently? Why is taste not universal?
