    Lilly Ghalichi on Why Being a “Glamazon” is Her Greatest Business Weapon

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Lilly Ghalichi to talk about why being a “glamazon” has been her greatest business weapon. Lilly shares her journey from law school to launching her first brand, Swimgerie, the challenges that forced her to pivot early on, and the mindset that helped her keep going along with her deeply supportive upbringing. We discuss taking risks, building confidence, and embracing both ambition and femininity without apology, along with the daily habits that keep her grounded as an entrepreneur and mom. Plus, we get into some fun rapid-fire moments, including her favorite luxury heels, the most she’s ever spent on glam, and the one thing she’ll never share online. If you’ve ever felt like you needed to tone yourself down, this episode is your reminder that what makes you “too much” might actually be your superpower. Enjoy!

    What Your Doctor Didn’t Tell You About Pregnancy Nutrition (Glucose Goddess)

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Jessie Inchauspé, also known as Glucose Goddess, for her third time on the podcast to talk about what your doctor isn’t telling you about pregnancy nutrition. Jessie shares her personal experience navigating pregnancy, including intense nausea during her first trimester and how going back to her core principle of stabilizing blood sugar helped her feel better and support her baby’s development. We dive into some of the biggest myths around pregnancy and why what you eat is actually co-creating your baby’s future health. Jessie breaks down the key nutrients every mom should focus on: protein, choline, and omega-3s and how much you really need in each trimester. We also talk about sugar intake, postpartum depletion, miscarriage, and simple, practical ways to nourish yourself during pregnancy (even when all you want are pastries). If you’re pregnant, trying to conceive, or just want to better understand how nutrition shapes your baby’s lifelong health, this episode is packed with a ton of information. Enjoy!

    How Rea Ann Silva Built a Brand That Landed in the Smithsonian (Beauty Blender)

    On today’s episode, I’m joined by Rea Ann Silva, the celebrity makeup artist and founder of Beautyblender, to talk about how a problem she faced on set turned into one of the most iconic tools in beauty. Rea Ann shares her journey from growing up in the Los Angeles area in a hardworking family to building a career as a professional makeup artist, and how the shift to high-definition television forced artists to completely rethink complexion and application techniques. We dive into the origin story of the Beautyblender, how she created the first sponge to achieve seamless, airbrushed skin without heavy makeup, and how the product spread organically through the pro makeup community long before social media. She also opens up about navigating early copycats, staying relevant in a competitive industry, and what it takes to build a product with true longevity. If you’re interested in entrepreneurship, innovation, and the behind-the-scenes story of a beauty product that changed the industry, this episode is packed with insights.

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.

    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!
