  • Healing acne, shifting negative thought patterns and nourishing the skin/gut with Acne Nutritionist Maria Marlowe

    This week's interview is with the incredible Maria Marlowe also known as the Acne Nutritionist who is a certified holistic nutritionist and founder of my now go-to probiotic called Glow Biome. Her skin nourishing recipes and insights have been featured in the New York Times, Vogue and so many other outlets. I am just such a fan of Maria's, what she does and creates and how she educates in such a thoughtful way on a topic that most of us (including me) have felt very helpless on. 


    In this episode we're getting into where acne is coming from, what our skin is trying to tell us/how we can listen to the inner communication going on, the connection between our gut health and our skin health, the pros/cons of medication and most importantly we get into the mindset shifts that we can all gently work towards to move from a place of being at war or at battle with our skin to a more loving, nurturing and patient place to ultimately listen and then act on what we hear.


    *GIVEAWAY* - if this episode resonates with you, post the episode to your stories on Instagram tagging me (@sophieiweill) and Maria (@mariamarlow) and we will be selecting 3 listeners to receive Glow Biome which is the best probiotic for acne prone skin on the market that I have been taking for the past few months.

  • The next best step

    Today's solo is about taking the next best step towards where you want to go. So often when we're starting to get clear on where we want to be, the overwhelm sets in and paralyzes us to the point of not taking steps so I wanted to put together a little solo talking about the importance of self regulating, taking a breath and committing to the tiniest of steps.

  • Be your own president!

    This week's episode is not about our presidents but instead it's about how we can start owning being our own presidents of our lives/decisions. Today's episode is a short reminder that we get to make executive decisions, big and small, every single day and vote with our dollars/attention on the kind of world we want to see.

  • Howard Thurman + What Makes You Come Alive?

    Solo episode on Howard Thurman's incredibly important quote and what makes you come alive. His quote and overall philosophy is truly the backbone of what I'm up to on this show and I just want to continue to bring that to the forefront as much as I possibly can. Hope you enjoy and if you did, it would be so helpful if you could give the show a 5 star rating wherever you listen!

  • Shadow careers + keeping your eye on the ball

    This week's topic is about something that I've been thinking about for over 3 years and that is about the concept of shadow careers - what they are, why we do them and how to start choosing to step into what you ACTUALLY want to be doing vs. a "safer" periphery career. I also get into this week's tennis lesson that reminded me the importance of keeping your eye on the ball and only on the ball!

  • There are no coincidences

    This week's episode is about the very real fact that there are no coincidences and that if you've recently lost a job, a client, someone in your life, etc. you are making space to bring in something that is more aligned to this version of you. If you stay open enough to see/receive them, the synchronicities/"coincidences" are all around and they're happening for you. If there's one thing I've learned to trust is that when you let go of something that is no longer yours, a) it never was and b) you're making space for what is.

  • The 1 degree difference

    Let me tell you something....there is nothing like being stopped in your tracks by a book you're reading and that is exactly what happened to me while reading James Clear's Atomic Habits. In this solo I'm getting into the concept of the 1 degree difference that I swear is something I'm going to try to keep in mind all year round. It's a strong reminder for us all to KEEP GOING. That's the name of the game. Love you!!
