Delve beneath the skin with us in this enlightening episode where Nika explores the profound layers of skin health with the remarkable Dr. Diana Drake! With a vast background as an Esthetician, a Board Certified Naturopath, and the creative mind behind Skin Naturopathics, a supplement brand, Dr. Drake brings a wealth of knowledge and insightful perspectives to the table.
Initially embarking on her journey as an esthetician, Dr. Drake was plunged into the widespread issues of acne, eczema, and perioral dermatitis that burdened her clients. The clear limitations of conventional skincare products and the notable impact of diet on skin health sparked a profound realization: there was a deeper, intrinsic connection between overall health and vibrant skin yet to be fully explored.
Enlighten yourself as Nika and Dr. Drake dive into the causes behind prevalent skin conditions like acne, rosacea, and perioral dermatitis, and unravel the often overlooked factors contributing to these issues. They highlight the intimate relationship between gut health, nutritional imbalances, and skin manifestations, and provide tips on how anti-aging isn’t just skin deep.
In this episode, Dr. Drake graciously shares her transformative journey from an esthetician, confronted with the challenges of mitigating stubborn skin conditions, to becoming a Naturopath with a specialized focus on holistic skin care. Her dedication to understanding the intrinsic aspects of skin health and providing enduring solutions led to the inception of the Skin Naturopathic Supplement Brand, created in collaboration with Master Herbalist Steven Horne. The principle? Balancing skin conditions by addressing their root cause, through a natural and holistic lens.
Listeners will also gain insights into the 3-step protocol of her innovative skin care system - a straightforward approach aimed at both consumers and practitioners, designed to be easily customized for specific needs by integrating additional products to address individual imbalances.
Dr. Drake not only brings a revolutionized approach to managing skin conditions but also ignites a discussion on the true benefits of incorporating supplements into a skincare regimen, going beyond mere topical solutions and prescription drugs.
If your skin has narrated a tale of persistent inflammatory conditions despite numerous attempts with topical solutions and prescriptions, or if you’re simply curious about intertwining a holistic perspective into your skincare routine, this episode is a beacon of knowledge and hope. Together, let's unveil the secrets hidden beneath the skin and rediscover radiant wellness in the holistic unity of body, mind, and spirit!

In today's episode, Nika sits down with the dynamic Lauren Elizabeth, a Radical Courage Coach and Feminist Business Mentor, for an enlightening conversation that promises to challenge conventional beliefs and inspire transformation. Together, they delve into the delicate balance between pursuing passion-fueled purpose and indulging in life's simple pleasures.
Lauren opens up about her own journey, revealing how she once grappled with the perceived dichotomy between being a devoted feminist and leading a life centered on joy, play, and pleasure. Through her experiences, she discovered that one doesn't have to choose between the two. In fact, they are intricately connected.
Purpose-driven feminists, passionate about disrupting systems and creating profound change, need moments of pleasure and rest. These moments of joy and relaxation act as essential fuel, reinvigorating them for the impactful work they set out to accomplish. Conversely, those who lead with their hedonistic desires, seeking out every joyous opportunity, require a touch of purpose and structure to truly find fulfillment.
Lauren’s insights shed light on the intertwined nature of purpose and pleasure, emphasizing that to create lasting social, cultural, and systemic change, one must find radical courage from within and understand the synergy between dedication and delight.
Listen in as Nika and Lauren navigate this captivating intersection, offering listeners a fresh perspective on leading a life that is both meaningful and joyful.
Note: This episode was recorded in 2022. Lauren's unique approach, stemming from her dual identity as a hedonist and feminist, has transformed countless businesses and lives. She's here to empower you to embrace both sides of the spectrum, showing you that it's not just possible, but essential, to have both purpose and pleasure in tandem.
