But guess what, he makes so much money – tens of millions of dollars a year doing that job – he comes in and they tape them all in clumps. He’s been on that Wheel of Fortune for decades, and it’s that same fucking show day-in and day-out. I marvel at what Pat Sajak is able to do. I’m not a rest-on-your-laurels kind of girl. Once I climbed the summit, and made it to the mountaintop…yeah, I’m going to have to go. I’m quick to quit a job, and now I know that about myself. ![]() I’ve actually never worked a job and hated it and stayed. You can listen to our conversation above, and read an excerpt of it below.īevy: I wasn’t because I never intended to be an entrepreneur…And by the way, unlike most people, I loved all my jobs - until I didn’t. But I hope, on the other side, we all come out with a little bit of Bevy’s savvy and drive. I have no idea what my next life reinvention will be or or what yours looks like in your dreams. In a world where women are encouraged to be demure, humble and cooly uninterested in financial success, Bevy is bold, vivacious and unafraid to be exactly what she is: a 50-year-old Black women who loves culture and life (and isn’t afraid to collect those coins). In our conversation, we talk about how she created her new life, how she measures her impact and what she wished someone had told her 20 years ago when she started her own business. It’s that freedom that allows her to talk not just about fashion, popular culture and sex, but also the harsh truths of our current social and political climate. She has built a platform where nothing is off limits and she has the space to be nothing but herself. Her story is the epitome of what it means to design your life, including an enviously successful career in advertising at Vibe and Rolling Stone (where she was motivated by a singular, hilarious, surprising goal that you have to listen to the show to hear), then a switch in her 30s to media personality. When she’s not on the airwaves, she’s the ultimate connector, hosting dinners and sharing her insights with young up-and-comers. Bevy is the host of her own show, Bevelations, on Andy Cohen’s SiriousXM Station Radio, as well as a contributor to Page Six TV. ![]() Media personality and entrepreneur Bevy Smith has done just that. Ever since I cut off all my hair, left politics and moved to the other side of the country for no other reason than to try to make a new life for myself, I’ve gravitated towards women who have fearlessly pressed the reset button on their own lives.
