On Wednesday, May 29, The Jennifer Hudson Show welcomes actor and writer Mindy Kaling, along with professional basketball players Cameron Brink, Dearica Hamby, Lexie Brown, and Rickea Jackson from the Los Angeles Sparks.
Mindy Kaling, an American actor, writer, and producer, joins the show to discuss her investment in and ambassadorship for the skincare brand Lion Pose. Founded by two female Harvard Business School graduates, Madhu Punjabi and Nisha Phatak, Lion Pose focuses on inclusivity and science-led formulations.
