Lipstick on the Rim

Her specialty lies in transforming full days into more fulfilling days and turning stress into strength. Pretty helpful life skills, might we add. She shares the tools one needs to garner such skills—to m...

Historically speaking, acupuncture has gotten an iffy rap. To an outsider, it’s only fair. After all, acupuncture is a treatment that requires numerous amounts of tiny hair-thin needles that not only poke at you but stay in the body for a generous amount of time. Unpleasant at first glance? Definitely. But when you actually take the plunge, try it for yourself, and understand all the benefits, iff...

No less, a forward-thinking trend report. Just give us the information we need and nothing more.

The Ranch. You’ve likely heard those two words used together before. But for those who haven’t yet delved into the week-long wellness retreat, there’s certainly a mystique around what The Ranch is, how it works, and who you’ll meet there. And, yes, you might just be hiking next to Michelle Obama and not know it. With roots in Malibu, married couple and co-founders, Sue and Alex Glasscock have crea...

When you hear the word ’therapy’ what comes to mind? A traumatic childhood? Depression? Anxiety? For years now, therapy has had a stigma—you must be TROUBLED!

This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services. Individuals on the show may have a direct, or indirect financial interest in products, or services referred to in this episode.   It’s January. That we know to be true. Perhaps you’ve heard of a little thing called “Dry January?” The buzzy trend that’s become a yearly tradition to many, pausing drinking for th...

Just like the old adage goes, “new year, new us.” The only problem is, who can actually stick to that promise? A new you in the new year is a tall ask. Actually, unrealistic, if not completely unnecessary. Sure, we could all use some self-improvement, but, hey, isn’t life meant to be a work in progress? Who do we think we are trying to re-invent ourselves year after year? Madonna? So, let’s back u...

It was a year for the books—sartorially (beauty) speaking and beyond. We found ourselves glowing and growing. We tried everything and then some. You know it’s a good product when you find yourself not only reaching for it on a daily basis, but using every last drop, and hitting re-order in advance of running out. This was a hard list to put together and is more edited than ever before. It’s just t...

It’s a true art form. Plastic surgery, that is. You could even say a plastic surgeon holds a similar role to that of a magician. In fact, today’s guest has experience in both. It’s simple: you go in one way and come out another—and that’s exactly what attracted Dr. Steven Levine to the aesthetic plastic surgery field to begin with. There’s no grey area. As one of New York City's (and the world’s)...

An OG influencer, you might know her from The Chriselle Factor. Or maybe you know her from being the #1 fashion expert on YouTube. Or maybe, just maybe, you know her as the founder of one of the chicest fragrance brands, Phlur. Missing person, anyone? Point is, Chriselle Lim is a badass (and mom of two) and we greatly admire her for that. Having recently gone through a divorce, she’s found herself...

She is THE celebrity wellness doctor. And, yes, she was behind the magic that was Adele’s jaw-dropping body transformation.

A 'multi-hyphenate' is a word that gets thrown around a lot—but Katie Sturino defines the very meaning. An entrepreneur, author, body acceptance advocate, and so much more, she’s a true trail blazer in this crazy world we live in. Her forward-thinking disposition has set her apart, so has the fact that she’s completely herself—it’s infectious and proves the power of authenticity and conviction wit...

Bobbi Brown. A name synonymous with innovation and entrepreneur. She’s the true queen of “no makeup makeup.” Starting as a makeup artist in the early ‘90s, her approach was unlike anyone before her—embracing natural beauty, practically putting that term on the map. Not only did she make it fashionable to look like your best self, leaning into the idea of “less is more,” but she made it marketable...

It’s not everyday we get to sit down with a best-in-class astrologist. In fact, they’re hard to come by. Susan Miller is one-of-a-kind and the best of the best.

Being an icon since the ‘90s is a long time to be iconic—and it’s no secret, that most people, no matter how high they've peaked, have difficulty standing the test of time. Simply put, today, our dream became a reality. Victoria Beckham is a woman who needs no introduction. A bit mysterious, completely alluring, and definitively posh, she candidly shares memories from her Spice Girls days that wil...

It wouldn’t be a career worth discussing if there weren’t some turns along the way. Esteemed heart surgeon, Dr. Steven Gundry, was world-famous for his work in the cardiac space. When a patient of his, suffering from heart disease, made dramatic changes to his diet, Dr. Gundry had a light bulb moment and his focus quickly shifted to help those reverse disease and avoid surgery through nutrition. H...
