    Alain and JB talk with absolute industry gem, Laura Inghirami, founder of Donna Jewel, educator, speaker, and all-around brilliant marketer. Here is a bit more about Laura in her own words...

    Laura Inghirami is one of the most brilliant and influential minds in the global jewellery world – a visionary whose deep expertise and creative insight make her a driving force in the industry. With a unique talent for leading innovative projects and a natural passion guided by wonder, she blends culture, imagination, and strategy to shape the future of jewellery, bringing the young generations closer to the industry. After studying Business Administration and International Business, she deepened her knowledge in Jewellery Design and founded @donna.jewel, opening the doors of artisans’ workshops and speaking about artists and designers at a time when social media were not yet used for this purpose. She teaches at IED (European Institute of Design) in Milan and Turin, and gives conferences and lectures around the world to celebrate the beauty of jewellery and inspire and guide young people toward the world of precious arts.

    Dirty Laundry
    Nov 25 2025

    Alain and JB talk kind of about jewelry but get, of course, completely derailed and start spilling all of their own private dirty laundry. JB cries in one bit, so if that’s your idea of fun, you can listen to this mess. Listen, at least we're back!
