I'm so excited to bring you this episode with Jackie Prince— founder of Guests on Earth, the sustainable, refillable, and stunning-on-your-counter cleaning product line. But trust me, she’s so much more than a killer brand.With a background in corporate marketing, Jackie took a leap during Covid to fill a gap she saw in the industry — and this definitely isn’t her first bold move. She’s an author (yes, she wrote a book about Chlamydia — and the story behind that is not what you think), a connector, a risk-taker, and just a truly great human. We talk about growth, expansion, and what it really takes to build something from the ground up. Spoiler: it’s never an overnight success.

My conversation with Dr Michelle Todorow was incredibly eye-opening. As a licensed child psychologist, we talked about how parents can create real change at home — by tuning into their child’s strengths, and knowing when and why to back off, amongst a variety of other pertinent topics that are plaguing us as parents. I know you'll come out of this one feeling more empowered and positive about how to navigate these relationships and support a healthier family dynamic.
