ARTICLE BY ALISHA RIMANDO | PUBLISHED IN 2025
In July, we celebrated our 3-year anniversary in a big way — by launching our very own podcast! Every two weeks, on Wednesdays, we release a brand-new episode packed with inspiring conversations featuring the artists, mentors, and icons shaping the nail industry. From career-changing tips to behind-the-scenes stories, our podcast is a must-listen for nail professionals looking to stay motivated and connected.
This week marks our 4th episode, and it’s a truly special one. Alisha Rimando sits down with nail industry icon Max Estrada for an exclusive, heartfelt conversation that takes listeners from his earliest days in his mother’s salon to building a global nail product empire. Together, they reminisce about growing up in the industry during the late ’90s, navigating its changes, and inspiring one another along the way.
Max opens up about the people who influenced his artistry, the mentors who guided his journey, and the personal strength that’s powered his career. With stories full of nostalgia, industry insight, and encouragement, this episode is a must-listen for every nail professional with big dreams.
If you’re loving the podcast so far, be sure to catch our previous episodes with Global Educator and Mentor Marilyn Garcia, celebrity nail artist Kimmie Kyees (Rihanna’s go-to manicurist), and Dafne Fernandez, host of Nailympia Mexico. Each conversation is a reminder of the talent, creativity, and resilience that make our industry so special.
We’re thrilled to celebrate our podcast journey with you — and can’t wait for you to hear what’s next.
Tune in now to our 4th episode and join us every other Wednesday for more incredible stories from the nail world.
