I'm a little under the weather this week so I've dug into the archives to bring you a conversation I really needed to revisit. Holiday shopping season is in full swing and that can mean spending gets a little out of control. That makes this the perfect time to dust off our financial self care knowledge and remind ourselves of our goals.
Original Show Notes:
In this episode I sit down with financial planner and best selling author Canna Campbell (Sugar Mamma TV on YouTube) to chat about taking care of yourself financially! We talk about budgeting, saving and investing. Plus Canna talks about the connection between money and emotions and how to responsibly budget for self care.

Today Mao and I are unpacking Moon Juice and how modern wellness brands use cultural appropriation to sell us a happier, healthier lifestyle. And we circle back to the origins wellness has in snake oil and the medicine shows of the 1880's and how the tactics brands use to sell us wellness hasn't changed much. We also talk about self care as a radical act and how self care is ultimately about community care, $60 supplements not required!

Wellness is a trillion dollar industry today, but have you ever wondered about the origins of our modern day wellness? Buckle up because today I tell Mao how wellness started out with medicine shows and snake oil in the 1800's (no snakes were harmed)! And then Mao tells me how modern wellness has become "goop-ified" in the image of Gwyneth Paltrow. And spoiler alert, it's not so far from the snake oil origins!
Come back for part 2 where we unpack Moon Juice and how modern wellness is still using cultural appropriation to sell us health.

Beauty products are the gateway for many of us into deeper self care, but with so much misinformation, fear mongering and eco-washing out there, how can we feel confident in the purchases we are making? Science has the answers! Whenever I'm in doubt about science claims around my beauty products I turn to Michelle! Michelle Wong is a chemistry PhD and science communicator who you might know under the name Lab Muffin Beauty Science. In this episode I ask Michelle about some of the biggest myths surrounding sunscreen, what does "reef safe" even mean and are those sustainable marketing claims really all they seem?

This show is about going beyond beauty products but it was born from a love of skincare! My passion for skincare is really what opened the door to deeper self care and through skincare I've learned so many important life lessons. Someone who inspired me to think about skincare from a more soulful level was Jude Chao, the blogger behind Fifty Shades of Snail (and season 1 episode 13 guest!). Today I'm so honored to chat with Jude about how skincare has impacted our lives on a deeper level.

Today I'm chatting with the astrologer Crystal B to learn how we can use the stars and planets to learn more about ourselves and our life path. Crystal shares her astrological wisdom on why you should move beyond just your sun sign, why you should read your rising (ascending) sign horoscope first and how you can gain emotional insight by reading for your moon. Crystal also shares her predictions for the coming months and how we can use this information as a planning tool for the rest of 2022!
