For her day job she helps run the SCI-Arc brand and public program, and spends the rest of her time curating a sex show (Whits n Giggles), creating her own art and experiences for places like MOCA, and running the definitive voice in event curation across Los Angeles (Curate LA). We talk to her about the challenges of running so much dope shit, and the merits of curation in general. &amp;nbsp; Show Notes, Shelley Holcomb Real Talk Podcast &amp;nbsp; Find Shelley and her various brands here: http:\/\/instagram.com\/shelleyhol http:\/\/instagram.com\/whitsngiggles http:\/\/instagram.com\/curate.la http:\/\/curate.la http:\/\/shelleyholcomb.com &amp;nbsp; 3:00 \u2013&amp;nbsp;Intro to Shelley Holcomb &amp;nbsp; 5:37 \u2013&amp;nbsp;What is Curate LA?
