Diana Sumpter: 60-Second Throwdown (Ep 5b)

In Diana Sumpter's 60-Second Throwdown, we talk about everything from what's in her camera roll to the three things she can't travel without. What you may not know about Diana, she's a breakfast girl who loves the mountains and carries the biggest purse you can get (with 4-inch stilettos!). And make sure you watch the video to see her show off her favorite fair of sparkly high heels (that she’s only walked in once). Her life verse is Ephesians 3:20 and her favorite quote is, “You cannot be mad or sad if you’re covered in glitter.” And even though she’s been all over the world, you might be surprised about the one state she’s never visited that she can’t wait to go to. And I would be remiss if I hadn’t asked her to share the one piece of makeup she’d use if she could only pick one...

She also tells us what "normal" means to her and what she's looking forward to doing after self-quarantine...
