In this episode I'm taking a fun and personal turn and sharing all of my monthly favorites—from skincare and fashion to books, podcasts, and content creators I'm loving lately. I’m chatting about products that made a difference in my routine, creators who’ve inspired my style journey, and books I can’t put down (and one super-hyped one I just can’t finish). If you’re into personal growth, simple beauty, chic vibes, and building a more intentional lifestyle, this one’s for you.
🎙️ Plus: My current skincare obsessions (hello, derm PAs on TikTok), must-have linen shirts, and what’s really worth the splurge. I’m also asking YOU to share your favorites with me!
