Beauty Baddies, today’s episode is all about one of my absolute favorite topics. I love vitamins and supplements, along with nutrition, they are the unsung heroes of the beauty industry. 

This is a multi-part episode and today we are taking a deeper dive into the science behind supplementation and nutrition, honing in on The Essential Nutrients, specifically alpha-Linolenic (LNA) aka omega-3 and Linolenic Acid, (LA) aka omega-6 collectively known as the essential fatty acids.

Because food is the only medicine that the average healthy individual requires on a daily basis, we are going to take a look at some of the research on the direct effects of the consumption of supplementation of various nutrients and their benefits to our skin through this series on vitamins and supplements.

Beauty Baddies, today’s episode is all about one of my absolute favorite topics–yall know that I’m a vitamin pusher. Along with nutrition, vitamins, and supplements are the unsung heroes of the beauty industry! Today, in part one of our two-part BSYR mini-series (sort of like a Build Your Skincare Routine subreddit), we are talking about all things vitamins, supplementation & Korean skincare with one of my favorite beauty baddies, Sally Olivia Kim.

Sally is the CEO of the marine collagen brand Crushed Tonic, the author of The Collagen Glow, a Korean skincare expert whose latest TikTok video went viral and has almost 3 million views.

Hey Beauty Baddies! Today I have the incredible Vanessa Bartlett on the show with me!

Vanessa is a Psychic-medium, tarot reader, and host of "The Aquarean", a new podcast that explores the inner workings of magic. Vanessa's psychic sensitivity brought mostly discomfort and pain into her life, until she embraced the practice of meditation. 

She's helped dozens of people begin their meditation practice, many of whom suffer from depression and neurodivergence. She's excited to offer her labor of love, a 30-Day Meditation Challenge, meant to help those who feel they need meditation, but believe it's impossible for them to achieve.

All True Beauty Listeners can purchase the 30-Day Meditation Challenge for 50% off using the code TRUEBEAUTY. This discount will be available until June 30, 2023! You can find Vanessa’s 30-Day Meditation Challenge, podcast, or book a reading with her at www.theaquarean.com

Happy 420 Beauty Baddies! While I get ready for the next season of The True Beauty Podcast, I’m re-airing some of my favorite episodes. For you witchy Beauty Baddies, you'll love this–I didn’t even realize that this magical episode was recorded on 022222!! Enjoy!

 In less than three years, Olivia Alexander has grown Kush Queen into a multi-million dollar, multifaceted brand carrying only the finest in both CBD-only and THC-infused products. The Kush Queen product line includes award-winning bath bombs, pain relief lotions, edibles, wellness supplements, and skincare.

Olivia’s belief in and passion for cannabis shapes her determination to normalize lifestyle and medical usage for everyone. 

In this episode we speak about the different medicinal uses for cannabis, how Olivia built her multi-million dollar business, the barriers to entry within the cannabis industry that lead to the under-representation of people within communities historically at the forefront of legalization, and so much more.

To learn more about Olivia and Kush Queen, check her out @kushqueenshop and @thelivalexander . Click here to order her book, The Essential Guide to Cannabis for Women: How to Buy, Use, and Enjoy Cannabis for Recreation and Wellness
