Meet a Mom Akilah Releford Gould
This week’s “Meet a Mom” interview is with Akilah Releford Gould, a serial entrepreneur and toddler mom.
On social media she portrays popular content that is both aspirational and actually helpful, including entertaining inspiration, elegant but simple recipes, effortless style and gorgeous decor. Followers enjoy a behind-the-scenes look of her various businesses, including Lucky Girl Rosé , and Wedding Chicks, as well as her family’s Bloom Ranch, for which she serves as creative director.
Akilah lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Roc Nation executive Andrew Gould and their two-year-old daughter Greta. Recently, we asked the tastemaker, who has been called “the Black Martha Stewart,” about making the every day special, her newest project and more.
