In today’s episode, we’re talking about the sun—not as something to fear, but as something to build a healthier relationship with. I’ll walk you through what “healthy sun exposure” actually means, how to avoid burning without avoiding the sun altogether, and some of my favorite internal tools to help support your skin from the inside out.

We’re skipping the fear-based messaging and focusing instead on education, nuance, and giving your body what it needs to thrive—sunshine included.

• Why the sun isn’t the enemy—and what we really need to know about safe exposure

• When to get sunlight for vitamin D without risking damage

• What it means to build a "solar callus" and why it matters

• How antioxidants and nutrients can help protect your skin from the inside out

• My favorite internal skin support tools (from astaxanthin to omega-3s)

• Simple daily habits to enjoy the sun and protect your skin, naturally

• Antioxidant powerhouses: Astaxanthin, Vitamin C, Vitamin E

• Anti-inflammatory support: Omega-3s from wild salmon, flax, or fish oil

• Skin-nourishing foods: Berries, cacao, green tea, bone broth
