Read more about our guests:

Jamila believes as a parent, especially a new one, it can be challenging and overwhelming to find a product line that truly works to relieve the discomfort that comes along with eczema. We’ve created Ocean Olive to create choice in the management of eczema. 

Irene founded Plantas Medicinas with a vision to create a meaningful story by helping inspire people to feel more connected to themselves and the natural world around us. She believes beauty is more than aesthetic and I'm on a mission to help people access their innate wisdom so that they can make conscious based choices that play a positive role in their health and also the well-being of our planet.

Krystal started Soy Latina to create non-toxic alternatives to products that she loved. Our fragrances are created to evoke emotion and feeling such as tranquility, radiance, and beauty. We create captivating environments and scent memories. We are eco-conscious, vegan, and handmade. We uplift our community by donating to Ronald McDonald House Charity and Eye on Vision Foundation
