some cute moments during my @audible @goop recording 🎙️

three of my guests lived around the country so the bulk of recording was remote. Luckily during my yearly “escape NY winter” I was in LA and Gwyneth and I were able to record in person!

on my first day working at glossier my manager said, “oh they’re probably going to throw you in a campaign.”

turns out it was a prophecy and not just two girls being delulu. how millennial of us!

and here I am, in our iconic NYC summer of 2026, a covergirl for @glossier I ❤️ NY balm Dotcom. I’m such a lucky girl to call this city my home. whew, I almost quoted Alicia Keys, “concrete jungle where dreams—“ 🤣

Now y’all can stop asking me “do you model” 😝

Dancing will always be my first love and when I reflect on that incredible chapter in my life there are so many parallels to becoming an entrepreneur. The auditions, the rejections, the HUSTLE!! But, oh how the rewards are so, so sweet.

My path to building Wujj hasn’t been linear but it is rooted in purpose and AUTHENTICITY.

#BTS from the @wujjpleasure campaign shoot

We turned a Bed-Stuy brownstone into our very own pleasure palace—complete with a hotline operator in every room. Think: cozy, cute, and totally in her element (just like we hope you’ll be with our product, Kissi).

The hotline wasn’t just for vibes—it was my excuse to make data sexy while walking you through every feature of our smart toy.

Final verdict? 10/10, no notes.

660 people said yes. To this idea. To me. To Wujj.

I started building @wujjpleasure because I knew there had to be a smarter, more beautiful way to understand women’s bodies. And I didn’t want to wait for someone else to do it. This feels like a moment. A real one!

To everyone who backed, reposted, sent words of encouragement or told a friend. You made this real!! We’re just getting started 🤍 by @pendajai

✨3️⃣6️⃣✨ 3/18 🎂
My mom gave me this vintage Harlem Globetrotters jersey for Christmas 🏀— it had been sitting in her closet for 20 years. So when I thought about what I wanted to wear for my bday party, I threw this on and couldn’t believe that the number on the jersey was 36! It felt serendipitous that I wear it for my 36th year. Maybe I’m overthinking it, but I’ll take it as a quiet sign that this year will be one of alignment and purpose. Grateful for coincidences and looking forward to what 36 brings! ! 🥂 by @pendajai
