For the first edition of Daily Life, we spent some time with the inspiring Julie Adenuga. The radio personality, DJ, MTV host, and entrepreneur has always dared to push boundaries and follow a path that is not written. From hosting Apple’s Beats 1, to going on to host Catfish UK, creating her own production company Don’t Trust the Internet, and keeping family first the whole time, the Rodrigo Inada-directed short film gives a first-hand look into the balancing act that is Julie.
