Kristina chats with Susan Liebesman, owner of Barbizon Chique. Barbizon specializes in developing life skills in children, teenagers and adults and provides development advice in the fields of modeling, acting, and singing. Susan also owns B2B Management, a boutique management company that manages corporate clients as well as top models, actors and artists, including Cover Girl Christina and movie star Regine Nehy. Liebesman discusses the importance of self-confidence and how Barbizon helps foster this extremely important characteristic in students. It’s also very important, she notes, for students to have a positive, balanced life to achieve their personal happiness. Barbizon’s curriculum includes looking at the whole person and honestly discussing body issues. Liebesman also notes that the entertainment industry can be dicey for parents and young kids unless parents do their due diligence to check out the bona fides of those offering opportunities for their children.
