The Savvy Session

If you could travel back in time and give your younger self some advice, what would you say? 

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could go back in time and use all of the lessons we’ve learned to do things a little bit better, a little bit sooner, or a little bit more thoughtful.

Join hosts Kirsten & Paula as they discuss the advice they would give to their 20-year old selves.   Learn their top advice and how the forks in the road have ended up shaping their lives today.

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month

Is Your Skin At Risk?

If you have a history of sunburns or tanning bed use, you may be at an increased risk for developing skin cancer.

Did you know that just ONE indoor tanning session before the age of 35 increases your risk of skin cancer by 75%?

Join us for a conversation with leading dermatologist Dr. Kelle Berggren, as we share personal stories of skin cancer, past history of tanning bed use, what to look for & using the ugly duckling method to check your moles and the importance of getting an annual skin exam.

May your day be as healthy as your skin!
