Welcome to Nice Talk, hosted by Marie Claire Editor in Chief Nikki Ogunnaike. Each week, Nikki will sit down with fascinating women—entertainers, entrepreneurs, creators, athletes, and changemakers—to discuss money, power, and style. “Well-behaved” women have long been discouraged from speaking on these topics—style should be effortless, and conversations about money or power aren’t “proper,” “ladylike,” or “nice.” But Nikki’s definition of a Nice Talk is one where all parties walk away feeling empowered. Nikki’s guests are getting candid about how they navigated their come-ups, what makes them feel both powerful and powerless, and of course, how they use personal style to communicate with the world.
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is the most decorated 100-meter sprinter of all time, with eight Olympic medals and 10 World Championship gold medals. Off the track, Fraser-Pryce is equally impressive: She created the Pocket Rocket Foundation to give back to her community and just launched her haircare line, Afimi, which is inspired by the essence of her home country of Jamaica. On this episode, Fraser-Pryce shares why wins look different during this stage of her life and how she’s feeling going into the World Championships in Tokyo. She also discusses how focusing on her race-day hairstyle helps her stay calm before a meet, as well as what it means to her to be able to support student athletes through her foundation.
