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.
Alison Brie has range—whether it's as an entertainment multi-hyphenate, a genre-spanning actor, or as the star of our Marie Claire August cover. She first garnered acclaim for her performances in the beloved shows Community and Mad Men, and in the years since, has built upon her acting career with projects like Glow—while also adding writer, producer, and director to her résumé. Brie's most recent film, Together, hit theatres on July 30, and today she’s letting us in on what it’s like to film a movie while physically attached to your husband and why she feels drawn to the horror genre right now. We also discuss the big three—money, power, and style—including how Brie planned for her financial future early in her career, the eclectic style she championed in high school, and the experience of working on a women-led television show.
