Gut Instinct with Carla Oates, Founder of the Beauty Chef Green-ish

    • Business

#8. Have you ever wondered what it’s like to quit your job as Beauty Editor of a newspaper? Be the girl that makes everyone ask “how does she glow like that?!” Launch a company with 3,000 employees and a mission you refuse to give up on? Pave the way for ingestible beauty? Turn $3,000 into the “magic purple powder” that has amassed a cult following?

In season one, “The Inside-Out,” we focus on women spearheading the philosophy that beauty begins inside—from healing our heart, mind, and microbiome—& radiates outward. The pioneering of this philosophy? Carla Oates is the author of “Feeding Your Skin” & was named a “skincare innovator” by Net-a-Porter. Carla created The Beauty Chef in 2009 after healing her family’s skin issues and discovering that beautiful, radiant skin begins with a healthy gut. She began experimenting with lacto-fermenting skin-loving superfoods in her Bondi kitchen and that’s how “GLOW,” The Beauty Chef’s first inner beauty powder, was created.

In this episode, we discuss:


The revolutionary discovery that caused her to leave her job as Beauty Editor
How looking at the gut-brain axis could be the main contributor to mental health issues
The difference between pre and postbiotics & the most important ingredient for a healthy glow
How to hold people accountable in business
The true sign of market validation for your product
Why you are not subject to predisposed genetic disorders
The main contributor to mental health issues… that you never would have suspected
