The Other A.I: Recent Episodes
Aesthetic Intelligence Labs
Pauline Brown is the former head of LVMH North America and author of breakthrough business book Aesthetic Intelligence. She is joined on air regularly by her venture partner and fellow tastemaker, Paula Oriol, Co-Founder of Aesthetic Intelligence Labs.
In The Other A.I. , Pauline and Paula invite their friends from the worlds of beauty, fashion, design and retail to share their views on the Business of Aesthetics and discuss cultural movements that are shaping our tastes.
The show also airs every Saturday at noon (ET) and Sunday at 2pm (ET) on SiriusXM’s Stars entertainment channel (109).
In this episode, host Pauline Brown sits down with her longtime friend Sasha Grutman — a seasoned finance professional and cultivated aesthete — for a conversation on the power of curation, or what Pauline calls “the art of intelligence.”
Drawing from Coco Chanel’s maxim that “elegance is refusal” to the Latin roots of curare (“to take care of”), Pauline and Sasha explore how thoughtful curation brings clarity, coherence, and meaning to our lives.
At once practical and philosophical, this show reveals that curation is not simply an elitist pastime, but an essential life skill — a way for us all to focus our attention, express our identity, and enhance the quality, beauty, and joy in our lives.
In this latest episode of Luxe Stories, host Pauline Brown sits down with Pulitzer Prize–winning fashion critic Robin Givhan to explore the remarkable legacy of Virgil Abloh, one of the most influential cultural figures of the 21st century. Givhan—who has written for The Washington Post, Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Essence, New York Magazine, and The New Yorker—discusses her new book, Make It Ours: Crashing the Gate of Culture with Virgil Abloh.
During the conversation, Robin reflects not only on Abloh’s meteoric rise, but also on the evolution of the fashion industry itself, and how it provided space for a creative disruptor to reshape its very codes.
Together, they trace Abloh’s journey from his roots as the son of Ghanaian immigrants in Rockford, Illinois, through his training in engineering, architecture, and music, to his pivotal collaborations with Kanye West and eventual ascent to become Louis Vuitton’s first Black artistic director.
Robin considers how Abloh democratized—and at times destabilized—the world of luxury, and why his unfinished story continues to shape the way we think about fashion, culture, and creativity today.
Tune in for a fascinating conversation on fashion, culture, and legacy—and how they were redefined by one visionary force.
On this episode, Pauline sits down with fashion veteran Michelle Spiro, whose career spans senior roles at marquee fashion brands, including DKNY, Calvin Klein, and Ralph Lauren, and is now launching her own tennis-inspired brand called Furi.

On this episode, Pauline explores the fast-growing world of alcohol-free wines and spirits with two industry leaders: Emily Onkey, co-founder and CMO of Aplós, and Vanessa Kay, former CMO of Moët Hennessy USA and now a board member at Aplós. Together, they unpack the Aplós story — from its inspiration and brand identity to its marketing strategy and future prospects.
They also delve into the rise of the “sober-curious” movement and discuss why consumers are rethinking their relationship with alcohol, how this shift is transforming the beverage industry, and, more broadly, how it’s redefining the way people socialize and celebrate.

What intrigues you the most?
Tune in as we unveil the questions you posed and delve into Pauline's responses, providing a rare glimpse into the world of luxury and aesthetics.
We often have to remind people that aesthetics, as we define it, is less about beauty than pleasure. Specifically, it is the pleasure we derive from perceiving an object or experience through our senses.
The first step in developing Aesthetic Intelligence is to unblock your senses and to become more mindful of the stimuli that surrounds you. That awakening allows you to create more pleasurable, multisensorial experiences for youself and others around you, including your customers.
In this episode, we cover some of our insights into how the senses work – individually and interactively – and how they drive human emotions, perceptions and behaviors. Towards the end, we delve deeper into sight and explore the latest color trends and how color affects our life.
Color analyst and image consultant Marina Thomas believes everyone can look amazing. All you need to know are your best colors ! In this conversation, we speak with her about the way color affects our mood and the way we are perceived.
Songs were created as a way to remember stories. Similar to how a wine sommelier pairs wine with cuisine, Keanna O'Quinn, Sonic Sommelier and founder of Honey & Vinyl pairs music with life's finest moments.

A style icon is a person - living or dead - whom you most aspire to become or emulate stylistically. Who is yours?
Aesthetic Intelligence entails an appreciation of the senses — how and why various sensations trigger certain emotions and how to use aesthetic cues to create pleasurable and desirable experiences. In today’s episode, we decided to get personal and talk about people’s use (and misuse) of fashion cues and the effect that clothes have on our moods and wellbeing.
In our quest to figure out how to put our own wardrobe to better use, make wiser shopping decisions, and rediscover joy through dressing, we invited our friend and favorite stylist, Cynthia Carr Gardner, to join us at A.I. Labs and share her advice. Here, we summarize her insights.
It takes only 3.3 seconds to register a smell, but the memory of it can last a lifetime. In fact, smells have a stronger link to memories and emotions than any of the other senses. How can you use scents to enhance your own wellbeing? And how can you use them to create desirable and memorable experiences for others?
The rise of ‘sneaker culture’ — along with the increasingly outrageous (and outrageously priced) designs — have gotten us thinking about the cultural significance of this particular style of footwear. Why and how have sneakers become such an important status symbol? Is this a fad? Or a movement?
In this episode we invited a very special friend and A.I.Labs student, Olha Shtembuliak, to speak about how aesthetics is helping her in these uncertain times. Olha fled the war in Ukraine and is currently based in Bali. For the past 6 years, she has been immersed in the world of mindfulness and conscious entrepreneurship, working in the field of meditation and yoga retreats.
The Ukraine situation, Buddhist philosophy and aesthetics as a reminder that life moves on are just some of the topics discussed.
Like everything in life, when it comes to developing your Aesthetic Intelligence it's the holistic picture that matters. Tapping into your taste levels is a somatic process that involves the embodiment of your senses and feelings, not just the acquisition of cognitive information. After all, mind and body are inextricably linked: to develop one, you must cultivate the other.
Reaching an optimal mind-body balance in a world that keeps pushing the mind above everything else and numbing our senses through constant daily stresses, information overload and digital overexposure can become a challenge. Today, Pauline Brown invites integrative coach Joanne Heyman (both part of our tastemaker community) to uncover some of her favorite techniques to remain grounded and attuned to her body.

Why is it that so few business leaders are as skilled in linguistics as in numerics? While most executives know how to use language for imparting information or directing people, very few are good at using language to inspire others, tap into their dreams, or express their heartfelt beliefs and ideals. Pauline and Paula have a few thoughts on what differentiates the most fabulous vocabulists from their less expressive peers. It all starts with word choice! Here are our guidelines for selecting words that work and using them to tell stories that stick.
Pauline Brown and Robin Albin draw from the best kept secrets in copywriting and storytelling to explore how we can use the power of words to engage with partners, team members and customers alike. We will disseminate language as a form to express your aesthetic vision, increase consumer engagement and longevity within industries.

We continue last week´s conversation about luxury; why do people ascribe so much monetary value to goods with no practical value?

Each week we at A.I. Labs share news stories that relate, in one way or another, to ‘the Business of Aesthetics.’ Sometimes the connections are clear: for example, stories on design and retail trends. But most of the stories we clip are only vaguely connected to the concept of aesthetics. These are the ones we find particularly interesting. We refer to them as our “Aesthetic Aha’s!”
A few of our “Aha’s” have made their way into our weekly newsletters, but the vast majority end up in our ever-expanding reference library. Earlier this week, Pauline decided to take a look through the stacks of articles that we collected in 2021, and come up with a list of her biggest “Aesthetic Aha’s of the Year.” Listen to discover her top four.
