In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta chats with Shirley Pinkson-Mañas, co-founder of Well People and Head of Education at e.l.f. Beauty, about her pioneering journey in clean beauty. Shirley's career started as a makeup artist with brands like MAC and NARS, where she developed a passion for quality ingredients and transparency. After realizing a gap in clean beauty products, she co-founded Well People in 2008, with a mission to make effective, safe, and socially responsible cosmetics accessible to all.

Shirley discusses the brand's commitment to transparency, educating consumers without fear tactics, and ensuring safety by banning over 2,500 ingredients. Well People was the first color cosmetics brand to receive EWG verification, reinforcing its dedication to transparency and consumer trust. With innovative multifunctional products, like their Supernatural Complexion Stick, Well People has continued to raise the bar in clean beauty. Shirley also shares the challenges of being a Latina, LGBTQ+ founder and the importance of perseverance and staying true to values in the face of industry obstacles. Her insights on today's conscious beauty consumers, particularly Gen Z, highlight a growing demand for ethical and effective products. Through Well People and e.l.f. Beauty, Shirley is shaping a future in beauty that champions integrity, sustainability, and empowerment.

This week, I welcomed Heather White on my show to discuss the impacts of climate change on mental health and share actionable advice for living more sustainably. In addition to having decades of experience in environmental advocacy, Heather is also a mom of two and is driven by her own children's deep concern about the future. She shared a staggering statistic from a recent global study of 10,000 young people (ages 16-25): 47% of respondents said climate anxiety interfered with their daily life.  Though it's easy to feel overwhelmed, Heather's goal is to empower individuals to take meaningful and joyful daily actions to ease eco-anxiety. Drawing from her wealth of experience, she shares actionable advice aimed at fostering a more eco-conscious and health-oriented lifestyle. We explore a range of topics, from the importance of deciphering product labels to practical strategies for reducing food waste. Heather underscores the significance of everyday choices, whether it's opting for safer personal care products, environmentally-friendly cleaning agents, or embracing sustainable fashion. Heather White is an author, speaker, consultant, and expert in environmental health, green living, and eco-anxiety, the mental health impacts of the climate crisis. She is also founder of the nonprofit OneGreenThing.org. White's two decades of experience include serving as presidential campaign staffer to Al Gore, as the environmental counsel to a US senator, and as the executive director to three national environmental nonprofits, including EWG (Environmental Working Group). Her new book, 60 Days to a Greener Life, will be released nationwide next Tuesday, April 9th.  Tune in as we discuss practical ways of easing eco-anxiety and discover the power that small, daily actions can have in building a more sustainable future. 00:00 Meet Heather White: A Champion for Environmental Health 00:39 Heather White's Journey 01:25 The Importance of Eco-Friendly Products 03:18 Navigating the World of Safe Products 10:51 Eco Anxiety 15:45 Empowering Actions Against Climate Change 18:24 The Power of Individual Actions 23:50 Progress Over Perfection 24:14 The Power of Whole Foods 25:36 Introducing 'One Green Thing' and '60 Days to a Greener Life' 27:47 Tackling Sustainable Fashion 30:52 Indoor Air Quality 36:15 Affordable and Practical Steps Towards Sustainability 38:59 Embracing a Sustainable Lifestyle  42:32 Starting Small: Practical Tips 46:47 Final Takeaways Resources Mentioned Environmental Working Group (EWG) - https://www.ewg.org/ Think Dirty app - https://www.thinkdirtyapp.com/ Made Safe certification - https://madesafe.org/ Consumer Reports - https://www.consumerreports.org/ EWG's Healthy Living app - https://www.ewg.org/apps/ Dr. Bronner's soap - https://www.drbronner.com/ Beauty Counter - https://www.beautycounter.com/ Grove Collaborative - https://www.grove.co/ True Botanicals - https://truebotanicals.com/ Well People - https://www.wellpeople.com/ Branch Basics - https://branchbasics.com/ One Green Thing Book - https://www.amazon.com/One-Green-Thing-Discover-Hidden/dp/0785291296 60 Days to a Greener Life - https://www.amazon.com/60-Days-Greener-Life-Eco-Anxiety/dp/B0CB1WV8NT Green Guard certification - https://greenguard.org/ Sustainable Furnishings Council - https://sustainablefurnishings.org/ Connect with Heather White Website: https://www.heatherwhite.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heatherwhiteofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heatherwhiteofficial/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heatherbwhite/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/heatherwhiteofc Connect with Amy Myers, MD Website: https://www.amymyersmd.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dramymyers YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AmyMyersMD/featured Newsletter: https://www.amymyersmd.com/ec/guide-to-leaky-gut Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmyMyersMD

Our guest this week is Laurie Lam, Chief Brand Officer at e.l.f. Beauty, the fast-growing cosmetics company that has made a name for itself with high quality, inexpensive beauty products. Laurie helps us understand the origin of the brand and some of the keys to its remarkable success. We dig into how staying connected to consumers fuels product innovation, the company's impressive record of diversity, equity, and inclusion, how to best navigate the often tricky world of social media, and the role of strategic risk-taking in propelling the brand forward. Instead of kicking things off as we usually do, we take a moment to announce that Steve's new book--Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption--is now available for pre-order at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org, and other fine book retailers. Then it's our usual hot-takes on the week in retail news, including a reminder of what the concept of VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) demands of us strategically. We also unpack why mall traffic is down meaningfully the past two months and wonder whether Taylor's new movie could be the catalyst for a turnaround. IPO fever gets a major cool down as Birkenstock's debut on the public markets is a bit of a whiff. In happier news, The Container Store gets busy with DTC brands, announcing its partnering up with dozens of them in a bold move. About LaurieLaurie Lam is Chief Brand Officer at E.l.f.

In this episode I had an absolute pleasure to host a world-renowned master coach (MCC) Catherine Tanneau. Catherine is specialized in executive coaching and organizational transformation with more than 12 000 hours (!) of coaching under the belt. Catherine is also a professor of leadership at HEC Paris (the #1 rated business school in Europe by Financial Times), and the founder / CEO of Activision-Coaching Institute (an ICF accredited training provider for leaders and coaches). Previously she has served as the chair of the ICF Global Board for Professional Coaches and the president of the ICF French chapter. In addition, Catherine has authored a few books, the most recent one being “Coaching for Leaders” (2021, in French). If you want to experience Catherine's coaching firsthand, then you are very welcome to join Äripäev's conference “Coahing 2023” taking place on the 1st of June. Check it out here: https://bit.ly/coaching-2023 Enjoy the conversation! “I started my journey towards coaching profession some 20 plus years ago when I was in charge of identifying potential acquisitions to be bought by French multinationals. While doing that, I realized that at the end of the day it was not a matter of finance, it was not a matter of strategy – it was actually a matter of people. It was then that I understood that mergers will work only if the people get connected together, quite in a deep way. This was the first moment when I became aware that working with people is really something that is appealing for me. At the end of the day, besides having a good strategy, a good product or service, a good sales team, etcetera, the success boils down to how well the people get along with each other, talk and listen to each other, try to bridge the differences in cultures, and really create a shared community striving towards a common purpose. And then I said, this is what I want to do in the future. I don't want to write powerpoint presentations, instead, I really want to support the people in organizations and help them to be successful.” – Catherine Tanneau Listen and enjoy!

Today's podcast guest is Rob Jackson the founder and Creative Director of Extra Credit Projects talks about humor, out of home design mistakes and why his firm never tires of doing good. Your firm is marked by an impish sense of humor. We try to get attention…not always humor.  You might call it wit…many times its humor.  Because we all, especially now, long for that…If you can genuinely strike that in somebody you just might have a chance in them remembering it, talking about it…Humor breaks through to us all. Extra Credit Projects Design for Great Lakes Neurosurgical What are some common mistakes you see in out of home design. Complexity.  Not quite understanding the medium.  And it's not just make everything big.  That was lost long ago….it's relevance…its context…Unexperienced out of home advertisers are trying to do too much on the boards all for the right reasons.  They want to say everything they can.  Many times they end of saying less.  To this day you see the national advertising dilemma.  It's a big blanket buy.  It's a big brand and it just doesn't seem like the put the effort into the outdoor…One example right now.  I love the insurance category.  They way these guys duke it out creatively.  State Farm – the new Jake.  Right.  I look at the outdoor.  It's not the real deal.  They could plow that idea just a little further…to really make the TV and the social work harder. Rob Jackson, Founder and Creative Director, Extra Credit Projects   On why context is as important as content. Through the out of home lens we've always been infatuated with the contextual work.  There's now even a contextual OBIE category.  Placement.  The mixture of the planning art and the creative art.  In our shop we call it the medium urge.  When the idea meets the media.  It's early in the process…that can be as literal as the placement of the board or the timing of the board and now with digital..possibilities are endless…We've always seen that in this medium even before digital.  It was how quick can we get that ad up. OBIE Contextual Award Winning Campaign for Panera Creativity is a business imperative. It certainly is for us.  We get too complacent.  Our ideas get mediocre.  In our brand we're not giving the extra.  Everything falls down.  We have a little exercise called the three legged stool.  A three legged stool stands equal on three legs…creativity, client and consumer.  We design and speak to the consumer.  We work for the client…But the third leg, creativity, the third C is the most important to us…you have to really ring the bell…There's one little quote that I keep on my monitor.  And when it goes away, when we clean too much I bring it back.  And it's “The most creative thing you can do for your folks is run a successful business.”  If there's no business sense to it, if there's no work, if there's no revenue, there is no creativity. The phrase “Never let us tire of doing good” is posted in your studio.  Why? It's certainly part of our firm's Christian belief but moreover it's a part of our work effort.  We've always been known for some public service and we give away countless hours a month doing that.  It's a labor of love…But there's even more.  There's a little extra and it's why our name has remained Extra Credit Projects…There's always a little more.  There's always a little extra in the basement that we can pull out… The current advertising climate Slow and steady.  Every month it feels like it's moving forward…I think advertising's rich.  I think it's a great time for advertising.  It's always a great time for great ideas…Outdoor is as powerful as ever.  When you do it well, people talk.

WELL PEOPLE. WELL THE CIA AND FBI PLANDEMIC IS WORKING..GET YOUR GUNS CIA DISGUISED AS REGULAR BLACKS AND LATINOS ARE STARTING A RACIAL WAR. AND THEY ARE FALLING FOR IT.

Dr. Jack Travis stated in his remarks at the National Wellness Conference in that "connection is the currency of wellness."  In this podcast with Jim Strohecker, CEO of Well People, we will discuss how the human connection and experience will lead us towards greater diversity, equity and inclusion processes.  These are some of the show highlights and key takeaways: Jim Co-created the Wellness Inventory program am, a 12 dimension tool that focuses on dimensions of wellbeing.  Four of the twelve dimensions highlighted were self-responsibility & love, breathing, sensing and eating. In his work with faith-based groups Jim used the Wellness Inventory to stimulate greater cohesion.  Participants began to find ways to support each other using mindful eating and prayer walking.  They began to combine modalities for health.   Given that faith communities have high trust and common spiritual purpose, having good physical,mental and emotional health is a natural next step. Jim shares how he created a program for the Tennessee Department of Health to train wellness ambassadors from various faith communities from minority and underserved populations and the overwhelming response that he got from this program.  Jim also addressed how to get wellness programs to groups especially when underfunded.  He has done a lot of work in academic settings using a strategy that we discussed in the podcast.   We discussed how connection to others with empathy is a part of universal wellness and can improve diversity and inclusion efforts.  In a political climate where walls are being put up and that separation is a good thing, what can we do to increase a sense of cohesion and inclusion?   Jim reminds us that we are all a part of the human condition and when we don't know what else to do we can just breathe. Wellness professionals need to be at the heart of these conversations because it's a whole person approach.  For our healthcare and helping professionals, Jim shared that occupational burnout is now a classification of disease according to the WHO and will help us to get more attention focused on wellness and self-compassion.  If you enjoyed this podcast, excellent!  You can reach me for more information at nikki@diversityandinclusioncoach.com and my website at www.diversityandinclusioncoach.com.   You can reach Jim Strohecker at jim@wellpeople.com or call @310.823.9553.  You can find the Wellness Inventory Training Program at www.wellpeople.com.   

A lot of money can be made from healthy people who believe they are sick. Pharmaceutical companies sponsor diseases and promote them to prescribers and consumers in order to sell drugs. There is a lot of money to be made from telling healthy people they are sick. Some forms of medical-ising ordinary life may now be better described as “disease mongering”: widening the boundaries of treatable illness in order to expand markets for those who sell and deliver useless treatments.  Pharmaceutical companies are actively involved in sponsoring the definition of diseases and promoting them to both prescribers and consumers. The social construction of illness is being replaced by the corporate construction of disease. Whereas some aspects of medica-lisation are the subject of ongoing debates, the mechanics of corporate backed disease mongering, and its impact on public consciousness, medical practice, human health, and national budgets, have attracted limited critical scrutiny. At a deeper level it may help to feed unhealthy obsessions with real Mother Nature health, which would not need obscure or mystified sociological or political explanations for health problems, and there would be no need to focus undue attention on pharmacological, individualized, or privatized solutions.  The Drug companies have the control over the health insurance system; they only pay for Drugs and nothing from Mother Nature’s naturals.
