    HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: Talking Veracity Skincare with Allie Eagan (a part two)

    Kicking off our holiday gift guide series we revisit the clean skincare conversation with Allie Eagan, Founder & CEO of Veracity Skincare. In our first episode she shared about the importance of knowing what you put on and in your body and the direct correlation to overall health. This time, I tried out Veracity's skincare test and we discuss the results and what they mean not just for my skincare but for my hormones and overall health. We also go a little deeper into why clean skincare is exceptionally important in pregnancy and how your skincare needs shift throughout pregnancy and postpartum and Allie shares a ton more information in general about toxic ingredients in our every day products, how to spot them, and what you can do to clean up your care routine.  Get your own customized skincare test with a 20% discount courtesy of TLP: Limitless20 (this code is good for all products as well) https://veracityselfcare.com/en https://www.instagram.com/veracityselfcare/?hl=en

    On Grief: Talking Grief Work and Healing with Joanne Zerdy

    In the final episode of our grief series we speak with Joanne Zerdy, educator and co-founder of Inviting Abundance. We discuss the many paths to healing after loss, not just pertaining to loss of a child but the losses we experience both alone and collectively as we move through life. Joanne and her husband began Inviting Abundance after the loss of their son Finlay, and focus on the spectrum of loss from loss of a loved one to chronic illness, heartbreak and countless other painful life experiences. They work with individuals as well as medical providers and birth workers through education as well as various other tools and methods.  Connect with Joanne here: www.invitingabundance.net https://www.etsy.com/shop/finlaysgarden https://www.facebook.com/invitingabundance/ https://www.instagram.com/invitingabundance/ Thank you so much for holding space with us through this important series. If you have found value in these episodes please do share with friends and loved ones. The only way we can erase the stigmas around grief is to normalize the conversation. Because no one should have to suffer through loss alone.

    On Grief: Talking Infant Loss with Michelle Valiukenas

    In our third episode on Pregnancy & Infant Loss we hear from Michelle Valiukenas, Founder of The Colette Louise Tisdahl Foundation. In this two part episode we spend the first half hearing Michelle's story of her journey to parenting, from her struggles with pregnancy loss and infertility to finally becoming pregnant with Colette, being admitted to the hospital half way through her pregnancy, Colette's early arrival and her stay in the NICU for her nine days of life. In the second half of the episode we get into the very real operational challenges for parents who experience high risk pregnancies, births and babies. From issues like how to keep your job when you've been admitted to the hospital indefinitely to managing compounding hospital bills to daily hospital commutes when your baby is in the NICU but you have been sent home, Michelle experienced first hand the many unfair challenges parents face every day and set out to create a support system with her foundation.
