In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Barbara Paldus—a Stanford Ph.D., biotech engineer, clean beauty pioneer, and fellow eczema mom—to dive deep into the skin-brain-gut connection and how to truly support eczema-prone skin from the inside out.
Barbara founded Codex Labs and Decode.Me, creating science-backed, skin solutions that have earned the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance™ and have been featured in Vogue, Allure, and more. Through her personal experience with her son’s eczema, she’s developed powerful, integrative skincare and gut health solutions that help families navigate this journey holistically.
