    Movement is Medicine with MaryKate Schmidt (@movementbymk)

    MaryKate Schmidt is the creator and founder of Movement By MK, a community that focuses on using movement as medicine and empowering women to feel their best through fitness! MK has overcome struggles with yo-yo dieting, binge eating, lack of self worth, and the on and off lifestyle so she works to instill self confidence in women and help them understand the diet doesn't have to start Monday. She built her brand on community and her primary focus is to bring the community together through her LIVE workouts, on demand platform, in person workouts, and retreats! In this episode, we talk about movement as medicine, building confidence through fitness, moving across the country, founding a business, entrepreneurship, her relationship (all the juicy deets!), and making her parents proud doing an unconventional job (spoiler alert - she cries!!!).

    Part 2: Carolyn Yachanin (@carolynyachanin), Founder and CEO of Copina Co. (@copinaco)

    Collagen is an essential protein that helps support strong hair, skin, nails, and joints. We lose the ability to synthesize it as we age. Copina Co's herbalist-approved blends are plant-based, vegan, gluten-free, and non-gmo and work to boost your body's natural collagen production without the use of animal products. Carolyn Yachachin's journey to starting a beauty company centered around empowerment and body positivity actually began from her own struggles with cystic acne. She started getting hormonal acne at 25. What changed was when she decided to take her health into her own hands and heal with holistic medicine, adaptogens, and stress management and when she realized that no one is perfect and that millions of women were going through the same thing as me - the thing was, few we’re talking about it! She saw not only the healing power of plant medicine to boost her overall health and heal her skin from within, but also the power of self-love. She started Copina Co. to empower all to live their happiest, healthiest, most vibrant lives exactly as they are now. She got tired of beauty being tied to perfectionism and wanted to create space to build a new definition of beauty. It’s one that rests on the fact that you’re at your most beautiful when you’re highlighting what you love most about yourself and loving your body and your life. You can be perfectly imperfect and be beautiful. Life is too short to spend it chasing perfection when you’re already beautiful as you are! She discovered the wonders of plant medicine to boost collagen production in our bodies and help us deal with the demands of modern life when she began exploring holistic medicine. Copina Co’s plant-based adaptogenic collagen blends are made with the best science-backed ingredients. In PART 2, we get into the ups and the downs of founding a business, how to design a product from origination to getting it on shelves (shelves like Anthropologie, Urban Outfitters and Erewhon!), bootstrapping your business, and so much more.
