How to Center Your Side Hustle ft. Rosemary Osondu of America's Sweethearts

September 05, 2025 • Lindsey Sullivan • Season 1 • Episode 43

It is officially September, which means it’s Alopecia Awareness Month, and the first guest Lindsey is kicking it off with is very special. You definitely saw Rosemary Osondu doing hair on the now Emmy-nominated docuseries, America’s Sweethearts, which has been renewed for a third season. Growing up, she enjoyed watching her mother style hair for her and her siblings. Hair was always a passion of Rosemary’s but as part of a Nigerian family full of medical professionals, she started out on a path to pursue nursing, doing hair as a “side” business in college. Now, she is a hair stylist and the business owner, having had power players like Destiny’s Child’s Michelle Williams, ABC Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay and of course, former VNA guest and DCC squad member Armani Latimer sit in her chair.

Lindsey and Rosemary discuss finding the confidence to bring her “side” hustle front and center and ultimately opening Rose Style Studio. Plus, Rosemary opens up about how the opportunity to partner with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders came across her desk.
