Today I'm joined by Siff Haider, co-founder of Arrae, host of the Dream Bigger podcast, and new mom. We discuss why she went back to work 10 days after giving birth and how prioritizing her recovery made that possible. Then we get into one of my favorite topics: supplements. Siff shares how she got into the business, her top three to take, and the importance of creatine.
This week I'm joined by Kayla Nicole–media personality and sports journalist–to talk about how her wellness approach has changed. We get into her lifelong struggle with eczema and acne, and why she wants to dissolve her lip filler. We discuss what longevity means to her and dig into the dangers of black-market GLP-1s and peptides. She opens up about the beauty standards she was under while doing pageants and being a wellness influencer–and why she’s stepped back from tracking every calorie. I also give her advice on her skincare routine, why I think vibration plates aren’t worth it, the benefits of red light, and the best lab tests to take for your health!
Today we’re speaking with Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi, one of the most well-known OBGYNs in the country, to talk about everything I see overlap between her world and mine. We get into adult acne and how often it's undiagnosed PMOS (the updated term for PCOS), the labs she runs that most doctors skip, and why insulin resistance is often the root cause. We also cover her honest take on GLP-1s and birth control–and she lets us know when it's time to talk to your doctor about perimenopause and HRT. We close on something close to her heart: her own breast cancer diagnosis and why knowing your lifetime risk matters more than family history alone.
Today I'm joined by Vanessa Lee of The Things We Do–this conversation is one I've wanted to have since we first DMed each other back in 2019! Vanessa coined the term "facial balancing" in 2017 and today we get into what that actually means and how to vet a med spa or injector.
