31: MAKING MENOPAUSE MAGIC WITH LORRAINE MIANO



Today kicks off another new series. This time we are focusing on all thing’s menopause. Today I am sharing the very educational conversation I had with Lorraine Miano.

Lorraine discovered her passion of offering menopause advocacy, support, resources and a whole lotta love to women in all phases of menopause through health coaching, proper nutrition, and preventive lifestyle choices.

As a menopausal woman who has experienced many symptoms, she wants women to know that they are not alone. There is help!  She received her certifications as a Health Coach and hormone health expert from The Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

She has been able to help even more women by writing and publishing her first book, The Magic of Menopause: A Holistic Guide to Get Your Happy Back! as well as curating her favorite products for women in her Menopause Market.

Lorraine loves to encourage women with her mantra “Menopause is NOT an ending! IT IS a new beginning!”  She also absolutely loves and enjoys being “Nonni” to five adorable grandchildren (and one on the way)!

Tune in today to hear Lorraine share with us why the holistic approach works out so well for most women. She also goes over some of the most popular pre-menopausal symptoms as well as the things we should be avoiding, such as caffeine, too many processed foods, heavier forms of exercise and the importance of having a clean diet.

From toxins and chemicals to rebounding, mindset, coaching programs and Lorraine’s Menopausal Market, we are getting into it all today.

30: TERRA & CO. A SUSTAINABLE ORAL CARE BRAND YOU SHOULD KNOW.



After more than a decade of working in the clean beauty industry, Amra noticed that the oral care market was saturated with chemically based products.

Pregnant with her first child, she worked with chemists to develop healthier and natural toothpaste for the entire family.

Just a few years later, joining forces with her sister, they created an entire line of oral care products. Her line Terra & Co. is carried at many luxury retailers across the country such as Saks Fifth Ave, Neiman Marcus, and multiple sustainable hotels.

Her company was featured in Harper Bazaar, Vogue, Forbes, WSJ and many more.

Tune in today to hear where Amra’s 20-year journey in the industry began and what gave her the confidence to launching her own brand.

She also shares her top five tips for beauty professionals and business owners as well as a few social media and marketing tips.

Terra & Co. is Sustainable Oral Care and has a number of activated charcoal and clean ingredients which we chat about while going over a few of the products such as the toothpaste, floss and tooth brush, and how often we should really be replacing them.

Amra learned a lot while working with the chemists in the labs and she also gives back. When you make a purchase on terraandco.com, the company makes donations to women’s shelters in the Los Angeles area.

Amra also shares how her and her sister, who is the other half of this business are so different in personalities and their characteristics, that it makes for a smooth sailing when it comes to running this business.

All this and more on today’s show.

27: SANARA SKINCARE. A BRAND YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT.



Today I am sharing a conversation I had with Rebekah Jasso Jensen for the Latinas in the Beauty Industry Series. Rebekah is the founder of Sanara. A plant-based skincare line celebrating indigenous Latin American botanicals. Rebekah lived with Psoriasis since her teens and it wasn’t until her 30’s that she began to understand the impact of the products she was putting onto her skin.

Rebekah began DIYing her own skincare in her kitchen and eventually sold all her dining room furniture so she could turn it into her test lab. It was through this skin self-discovery that she felt a pull from her ancestors to begin researching ingredients that her Latin American ancestors have been using for centuries.

This was when she turned her passion for plant-based skincare and turned it into her mission, sharing the beautiful healing botanicals indigenous to Latin America. It was years of seeing results and sharing what she was doing that she created Sanara.

Sanara comes from the Spanish word, sanará which mean, “you will heal”. Rebekah’s wish is to not only help bring healing to those with skin conditions or sensitive skin but to share the beauty of Latin America.

Tune in to learn more on Rebekah’s personal story that led into a beautiful business journey. We chat about her products, the incredible ingredients as well as the multiple sizes that would be perfect for any retail location.

We even get a sneak peek on her latest launches you simply will not want to miss.

26: THE QUEEN OF WAXING LYDIA JORDANE OF LYCON WAX



Today I am sharing a conversation I had with Lydia Jordane, Founder of Lycon Wax.

Lydia developed hair removal wax for her personal use in the late 60’s. To follow, she then developed her own waxing techniques, at which time she had no idea that her waxing experiments on the family kitchen stove, would one day become sought after products and a global business.

Tune in to hear Lydia chat about the time after her initial waxing experiments, she became a beauty therapist, armed with her special wax. As clients flowed in through the doors, inquiries rang in from other salons wanting to know what her secret wax was about.

Lydia shares how in 1978, she sold a couple of kilos of the legendary LYCON Apricot Hot Wax. And now the LYCON range consists of many different waxes and skincare products which are distributed throughout Australia and as at June 2014 are exported to 64 countries.

The LYCON waxing range consists of many wax choices and waxing methods: strip wax, hot wax, the unique Lycojet, LYCOtec and LYCOdream waxes with soothing aromatherapy oils, which make LYCON wax suitable for the most delicate and sensitive skins on any part of the body and face.

In addition, Lycon manufactures many technologically advanced and results orientated skincare products for professional use and home care.

Lycon is recognized as the creme de la creme waxing range in the world, used by the top salons and spas, with a long list of celebrity following.

Tune in to hear how Lydia and her team provide training with their special LYCON WAXING SYSTEM to the spa and salon industry in Australia and in all the countries we export to, with the view of spreading the love of LYCON.

More importantly to assist salons and spas in upgrading their skills, so that more salons as well as our amazing network of distributors around the globe can grow a sustainable business for themselves with LYCON.
