    Irina Shayk’s Esthetician on Peptides, Exosomes, and the Skincare Technologies That Actually Work (Mimi Luzon Shares All)

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by celebrity esthetician Mimi Luzon — known for working with supermodels like Irina Shayk — for a deep dive into what actually works in skincare. We break down the truth about peptides and exosomes, how to choose high-quality ingredients, and which treatments truly improve skin elasticity and tighten from within. Mimi shares her thoughts on popular technologies like radio frequency, microneedling, Morpheus8, EMS, and lasers — plus the treatments she recommends avoiding. We also discuss how to build the right skincare routine in your 20s, 30s, and 40s, the biggest mistakes people make with acne and exfoliation, how to treat melasma and rosacea, and why SPF, sleep, and nutrition are non-negotiables for glowing skin.

    Meghan Swidler on Fixing Digestive Issues, Supporting Your Liver, and How to Properly Detox

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Meghan Swidler for a deep dive into why so many people struggle with digestive issues — and what it actually means to detox properly. We break down the root causes of bloating, constipation, and brain fog, how an overburdened liver and stagnant detox pathways impact your entire body, and why true cleansing starts with opening the colon before supporting the liver and lymphatic system. Meghan shares practical tools you can implement right away — from hydration, fiber, and mineral support to movement, cleansing foods, and the role of colonics — along with guidance on parasite cleanses, mold exposure, and the gut-brain connection. If you’re looking to fix your digestion, reset after the holidays, or support your body’s natural detox systems, this episode is packed with actionable insights. Enjoy!

    Alli Webb on Building and Selling Drybar for $225M, Founder Evolution, and Building a Second Business

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Alli Webb for an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about building Drybar from a single storefront into a $255M brand — and what it really takes to evolve as a founder. We break down how Alli identified a white space in the beauty industry, scaled a service-based business at lightning speed, expanded into product, and ultimately made the decision to raise private equity and bring in a CEO. She shares candid insights on fundraising, delegation, leadership growth, and the hard lessons that come with scaling fast. We also explore the emotional side of entrepreneurship — navigating divorce, loss, and personal upheaval while leading a company, the identity crisis that can follow selling your business, and how self-awareness becomes a founder’s greatest superpower. Finally, Alli opens up about starting over with her new brand, embracing natural curls after years as the “blowout queen,” and what she’s doing differently the second time around. Whether you’re building, scaling, fundraising, or redefining yourself after success, this episode is packed with real-world wisdom and founder truth. Enjoy!

    Thais Gibson on Everything You Need To Know About Attachment Theory and Attachment Styles in Relationships

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Thais Gibson for a clear, compassionate conversation about attachment theory and how it shapes the way you love, communicate, and relate in every area of life. We break down what attachment really is — the subconscious “rules” you learned about love and safety — and how it shows up in friendships, romantic relationships, and even family dynamics. Thais explains the four main attachment styles (secure, anxious, dismissive-avoidant, and fearful-avoidant), what drives each pattern, and how childhood experiences and repeated emotional conditioning shape your nervous system. We also explore how attachment can shift in adulthood, and why your conscious mind alone can’t out-will old subconscious habits. Thais shares practical tools for healing, including nervous system regulation, boundary building, and rewiring your beliefs through consistent emotional practice. Whether you relate to anxious attachment, avoidant patterns, or you’re seeking a more secure way of relating, this episode offers insightful, actionable guidance for building healthier relationships and deeper self-awareness.

    Jacq Gould on Building Self Trust, Redirecting Goals, and How To Navigate Feeling Stuck

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Jacq Gould for a grounded, honest conversation about building self trust, reconnecting with yourself, and navigating seasons where you feel stuck or disconnected. We explore what self connection really looks like in daily life, the common signs of disconnection like perfectionism, people pleasing, and overextending, and why worthiness isn’t something you earn after achieving a goal—but something that’s built through self trust. Jacq shares her personal journey into this work, the power of group healing, and practical tools like daily nourishment practices, collecting evidence when things work out, and knowing when it’s time to redirect a goal instead of forcing it. From reframing self-talk and releasing fear-based thinking to balancing self connection through motherhood, this episode offers thoughtful insights and tangible practices to help you feel more grounded, confident, and aligned with yourself.
