Aging is a luxury.

Aging women were once seen as wise women. They were held in a place of honor. When did we start seeing aging as something to hide? To erase? When money and the beauty industry started speaking louder than our own intuition.

In this deeply personal conversation, my COO Diana, sits down with me, and discusses my choice to age naturally. We dive into why I started this journey, why I chose not to use fillers, and I share stories that have helped to strengthen my commitment to this path.

Inside this episode, we also discuss: 

  • Why I first said no to the beauty industry’s relentless demands, and how that “no” evolved into a profound “yes” to myself.

  • The freedom, relief, and unexpected power that comes when you stop running from your own humanity.

  • The mirror practice that has re-rooted me in love and reverence for my own reflection.

  • The heartbreaking stories of the women who came before us - and why I refuse to let my life be remembered for how I looked.

  • What it means to live as a “walking permission slip” for other women who are longing to lay down the sword and step into a truer, deeper beauty.

I hope this conversation inspires you to love the woman in the mirror. No filters. No fillers. To see the beauty in the woman reflected back and love her just as she is. Worthy. 

You are allowed to age. You are allowed to be seen. You are allowed to love yourself as you are.

If this episode stirs something inside you, share it.
If you’re ready to meet yourself in the mirror - truly meet her, come join me at MAGNETIC.
Your future self is already waiting.
