Where Beauty, Wellness & Healthcare Beautifully Meet

If you’ve ever found yourself googling skincare ingredients during a derm appointment or wondering if your gut health could be behind your breakouts—same.

The world of beauty and wellness is evolving, and it’s bumping up (in a very good way) against the world of healthcare. This is no longer just about a good serum or the latest supplement trend—it’s about feeling empowered in your body, understanding the “why” behind what you put on and in it, and connecting the dots between how we care for our appearance and how we care for our overall health. And let’s be honest: better sleep, balanced hormones, healthy boundaries, and glowing skin? Yes, please.

In this daily column, I’ll explore what’s new, what’s worth your time (and money), and what science actually says about the latest buzzwords. I’ll break down ingredients, test out products, spotlight women-led wellness brands, and share practical advice for feeling your best—whether that’s via a cold plunge, a boundary-setting script, or a lip balm that actually works. Think of this space like your group chat with smart friends—curious, compassionate, and always willing to test a weird wellness trend so you don’t have to.

I look forward to offering up the latest for better relationships with ourselves, our bodies, and each other—one product, practice, or perspective at a time. I’m so glad you’re here.
