You’ve spoken for years about the connection between what you eat and how you feel. How much do you think about that same inside-out connection when it comes to your skin?
Ever since I’ve switched to living an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my skin and what seems to be a slowing of the aging process in my skin texture and elasticity. I think about everything that I ingest, as it’s going to affect my gut because that is what is going to affect my skin, which is our largest organ. Therefore I’m incredibly thoughtful about everything that I put in my body.
Your approach to food is so ingredient-conscious. Do you bring that same level of scrutiny to supplements and the products you take every day? What do you look for?
I do. For any type of supplement I take I am always scrutinizing the ingredients, making sure they are free of natural flavors, gums, sugars, and other ingredients that I prefer to not ingest.
Between jewelry, food, wellness and everything else you have going on, what are the few daily rituals you protect no matter how busy life gets?
I have a few self-care rituals that are non-negotiable for me. My red light therapy, my Pilates, my alkalize greens, and my collagen.
You’re one of our favorite non-gatekeepers. What’s something you’ve discovered recently in beauty, skin, food or wellness that you immediately told everyone about?
Since switching to Par Olive collagen, I’ve seen immense benefits in my skin, my nails, and, more importantly, my hair growth which everyone knows has been a struggle for me for years. I’ve brought my followers along on this new supplement journey, and lately, I’ve also started sharing more hair growth tips, including topical products I’m using alongside my collagen.

You’ve built your jewelry line around things you genuinely use and love. What does something have to do to earn a permanent place in your own daily ritual?
Anything that earns a spot in my daily ritual has to check the box for making me feel better, look better or make my life easier.
What does “aging well” mean to you now and has your definition changed over the years?
Aging well, to me, means being my true self, feeling incredibly confident in my own skin, and doing whatever I feel like. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve become much more sure of who I am and the choices I make. I’ve stopped looking around at what everyone else is doing and started focusing on what feels right for me.
What’s the best beauty or wellness advice you’ve ever received?
I don’t think I’ve ever received amazing beauty or wellness advice. I’ve had to figure it out on my own and do it for myself.
What’s one thing you do every day that feels small but has made a huge difference over time?
Wearing earplugs so I get better sleep because my husband snores. They have improved my sleep immensely.
If you could give women in their 30s one piece of advice about taking care of their future skin, what would it be?
Sunscreen, sunscreen and sunscreen. Also water, hydration, and trying to drink less alcohol.
You’re hosting dinner and we’re all invited. What are you cooking, what’s playing, what are you wearing, and what’s the one thing you’re putting on the table that everyone needs to try?
I am making tacos in some form. The playlist is vibey but casual, with a mix of R&B, Rufus Du Sol, and some Euro vibes. I am wearing jeans with a T-shirt and no shoes and everyone has to try my California guacamole. That’s always a crowd pleaser.
