After launching a range of B+C videos about crave-worthy food, tiny spaces and the ultimate creative girlbosses, I’m excited to announce our latest reality series… Sparked! It’s time to get creative and get inspired.
This new series, starring yours truly (oh, hello there!), is all about stepping outside of your comfort zone and trying something new. In each episode, I trade places with a creative professional of a different kind — from a pastry chef to a hairstylist to a farmer. Yes, a farmer. That really happened.
Filmed while 8+ months pregnant, I was forced to step into their jobs for the day and try my hardest to keep up. Let me tell you, this was no easy feat on a number of levels!
In one episode, I had to learn how to highlight a teen girl’s hair at Prep Cuts in San Francisco. I’m still in shock she trusted me with her locks. In another, I had to milk a goat, turn it into goat cheese, and then herd 50 chickens into their coup. What!?

Craftsman and Wolves where I learned how to table chocolate and decorate a to-die-for cake.
My favorite task of the series was becoming an interior designer for the day. I got to design a kids room for an actual client! Hardest part? Toning down my love of all things colorful. But, by the end of the day, I realized that having creative constraints can breed a lot of new creativity and help you focus. I chalked that up to a win. ;)
