They discuss the importance of true ancestral ingredients, the impact of diet on skin health and aging, and the misconceptions surrounding mainstream beauty products. Bethany shares her insights on teenage skin issues, the myths of sun exposure, and the dangers of greenwashing in the beauty industry. The conversation wraps up with practical tips for listeners looking to transition to natural skincare and a glimpse into emerging trends in wellness for 2026! About Bethany: Bethany McDaniel is the Founder of Primally Pure, a natural skincare company rooted in simplicity, purity, and the wisdom of nature.

Everything changed when she turned to simple, natural ingredients. The transformation sparked a passion, and with just $250 in supplies, she launched Primally Pure to help others experience the healing power of clean skincare. A deep love for nature, sunshine, and slow, intentional living inspires everything Bethany creates. Whether she's formulating products at the Primally Pure Workshop or spending time outdoors with her family, she draws endless wisdom from the rhythms of the earth. Bethany is also the host of The Grounded Wellness Podcast, an outdoor podcast filmed on her family’s regenerative farm.

    Another Gospel | Alisa Childers | Ep 66

    In this episode of The Britt Mayer Show, we dive deep into the question: "What is True Christianity?" - in contrast to the modern push for a progressive, different gospel. Our special guest, Alisa Childers, shares her powerful journey of faith through challenges with progressive Christianity and deconstruction. We explore the distinction between traditional Christian orthodoxy and the rise of progressive Christianity in today's society, particularly within universities. Get ready for a powerful episode about Truth in an era of progressive confusion. Like, subscribe, and leave a review to support spreading this essential message! About Alisa: As a lifelong church-goer, follower of Jesus, and former CCM recording artist with the Dove award-winning group ZOEgirl, I experienced a period of profound doubt about my faith in my mid-thirties. I felt as though I had been tossed in a stormy ocean of uncertainty with no life jacket or  lifeboat in sight. I didn’t know where to find answers to my questions, or if answers existed at all. Did I have to accept it all on some kind of blind faith?  I began to investigate my faith intellectually—I took seminary classes and read everything I could get my hands on. This began my  journey from  unreasoned doubt into a vibrant, rational, and informed faith.
