In this episode of Beauty Backroads, I sit down with my childhood friend Aimee at The Frenchie in Round Top, Texas for a heartfelt conversation about friendship, nostalgia, reinvention, and finding your way back to yourself in midlife.

We’ve known each other since kindergarten, and now, almost 50 years old, we’re meeting in a completely different season of life, with more stories, more perspective, and a deeper appreciation for the little escapes that help us breathe again.

This episode is for the woman who has lived some life, carried a lot, and still wants to feel inspired, rested, connected, and beautifully herself.

Remember, the more you know, the more you glow!

Have you ever wondered if certain places bring out different parts of you?

Maybe one location feels better for love.

Another supports your work or creativity.

Another helps you feel more grounded, connected, visible, or at peace.

I’m so excited to announce a very special mother-daughter collaboration called New Chapter Glow Map!

My mom, Shirley, has studied astrology for over 50 years, and together we’re offering a limited number of personalized astrology location readings designed to help you discover the places where you may feel most aligned in your next chapter.

This is especially for women who are curious about where they shine — whether that’s for love, work, friendship, creativity, healing, confidence, reinvention, or simply feeling more like yourself.

For this first offering, we are only selecting 10 people this year.

If you’re interested in being considered, please email me (see email address below) and share what you most want to understand about your ideal location.

You can ask about things like:

Best places for love

Best places for work or career growth

Best places for friendship and community

Best places for creativity or visibility

Best places for healing, peace, or a fresh start

Best places to feel more like yourself in this next chapter

With your New Chapter Glow Map™ Reading , you’ll receive:

A customized astrology location map

A written interpretation from my mom, Shirley (no AI)

A personalized audio summary from me to help make it easy to understand and apply

This is not about predicting your entire future or telling you what you “have” to do. It’s about giving you a beautiful, thoughtful tool for self-discovery — so you can better understand the places that may support who you are becoming.

If this speaks to you, email me to be considered for one of the 10 spots available this year!

Email [email protected] and include:

Your name

Your birth date

Your birth time, as exact as possible

Your birth location

What you most want to know about your ideal location

Any cities, states, or countries you’re curious about

In this episode, I’m sharing 5 natural ways to help improve your skin, under eyes, and eyelids without Botox or surgery. We’re talking about the simple things that can actually make a difference when it comes to brightening, toning, and creating a more lifted look at home.

I cover the skincare products worth paying attention to, the role of eye creams, and the best at-home beauty tools that can help support firmer-looking, healthier skin. If you’ve been curious about what really helps tired eyes, crepey lids, or skin that feels like it’s starting to lose its bounce, this episode will give you practical ideas you can actually use.

This is for the woman who wants natural beauty solutions, smarter skincare, and realistic ways to support graceful aging without jumping straight to needles or surgery.

In this episode, I’m getting back to the basics and talking about three of the biggest skin concerns women often have: brightening dull-looking skin, softening the look of wrinkles, and helping skin appear naturally plumper without Botox. I’m also sharing supportive product recommendations and a more practical, barrier-first approach to skincare.

If you’re not wearing sunscreen, you're wasting money on skincare.

This episode is not sponsored and is not medical advice. It’s simply honest, experience-based guidance to help you focus on what really supports your skin.

In this episode, I’m talking about perimenopause belly fat, broken sleep, brain fog, and some of the simple things that have been helping me feel better.

I share my thoughts on calorie tracking, protein, cognitive ease with food, blood sugar at night, intermittent fasting, castor oil, and sleep support like creatine.

This is not medical advice, just an honest conversation about what may help during this season of life and I hope it helps you, too.

In this episode, we’re talking about Botox — what it is, what it was originally created for, when it started being used for wrinkles, and the risks many people say aren’t discussed enough. From its medical origins in treating eye disorders to concerns about Botox side effects and possible Botox poisoning, this conversation is designed to inform, not judge. If you want a clearer understanding of Botox history, Botox risks, and what to consider before cosmetic injections, this episode will help you look at the full picture.

If you’ve been feeling off, experiencing things like low energy, brain fog, breathlessness, dry skin, dry eyes, or just not quite yourself—iron could be part of the story.

In this episode of Beauty Backroads, I’m sharing real-life iron insights I wish I’d known sooner. We’re talking about the often-overlooked signs of low iron, what can quietly block iron absorption, what vitamin you should take with iron and a wacky symptom that truly surprised me along the way.

I’m also revealing a surprising food that provides 50% of your daily iron needs—and no, it’s not the one everyone always talks about.

This is a calm, informative, no-alarm conversation meant to help you feel more informed and empowered—not overwhelmed.

As always, this isn’t medical advice, but it is an invitation to listen to your body, ask better questions, and advocate for your health.

Losing weight in your 40s is not the same as losing weight in your 20s, and if you’ve been feeling frustrated, discouraged, or stuck, you’re not imagining it.

In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey of losing around 20 pounds naturally, without dieting, medication, or extremes — and the mindset and lifestyle shifts that actually made it sustainable. We talk honestly about why motivation doesn’t last, what my trainer taught me about protein and nourishment, and how to work out without stressing your body, joints, or nervous system.

I break down my realistic approach to clean eating and organic whole foods, reflect on what Susan Powter taught so many of us about food and empowerment, and explain why low-impact workouts can be incredibly effective in midlife. We also dive into the realities of perimenopause, including insulin resistance, visceral fat, blood sugar crashes, and why the “rules” from our 20s no longer apply.

I also open up about my personal experience with fibroids, weight gain, and the stubborn stomach bulge that so many women quietly struggle with — along with how fast food, stress, mental health, and the way we talk to ourselves can impact our progress more than we realize.

Inside this episode, I share:

• How to adjust your routine when you feel overwhelmed (without quitting)
• A simple food hack to stay on track on busy or hard days
• My secret sugar substitute tip and how to avoid crashes
• Why blood work matters, including iron deficiencies
• My favorite grass-fed protein supplements
• The role fiber plays in weight loss
• How I use the 80/20 rule without all-or-nothing thinking
• An “excesses” hack for eating out, parties, and special occasions
• 
  

This episode isn’t about perfection or punishment. It’s about learning how to support your body in this season of life — calmly, compassionately, and in a way that actually works long-term.

Remember… the more you know, the more you glow.

As we step into 2026, I wanted to take a moment to slow down, reflect, and share what’s next — not just for this podcast, but for the way we approach beauty together.

In this New Year episode, I’m opening up about how the podcast is evolving, why I’m making a few intentional changes, and some big news I’ve been so excited (and a little nervous) to share. This next chapter feels more aligned, more grounded, and more honest, and I think you’ll feel that shift right away.

We’re also getting back to the basics when it comes to skincare. Not trends. Not hype. Just what actually matters if you want healthy, resilient skin, especially as we move through our 40s and beyond. I’ll be sharing the skincare principles I’ll be focusing on going forward, why simplifying your routine can be so powerful, and how consistency, barrier support, and intention make all the difference in achieving real beauty goals.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the beauty industry, disconnected from your routine, or ready for a reset that feels supportive instead of stressful, this episode is for you.

Here’s to a new year, a clearer path, and choosing what truly serves us — skin, heart, and soul.

Remember, the more you know, the more you glow. 💛
