Show notes

Sharing Her Journey is SO excited to welcome Monique Hale to the podcast as one of our permanent MONTHLY co-hosts. This woman has lived many lives...both in America and France. She is admirable in so many ways, and has handled her journey with grace and beauty. Oh, and she is kindly blunt and funny too!

Monique was born and raised in France with many brothers and sisters. She was raised in a strict home where her father exposed her to nature, art, architecture, and travels. Her mother encouraged her and her siblings in all of their ambitions. After high school, she spent a year in America...which she had always wanted to discover! Monique then decided to stay and pursue studies in Interior Design. {This is where she meets Kirsten:}

After spending nearly 2 decades in the USA, she moved back home to France so her children would grow in her beautiful culture and language. After leaving her husband, she stayed in France because of the great support system she has there.

Monique loves to express herself through art by drawing, taking pictures, composing floral arrangements, or decorating interiors.

Each decade of life, has brought its own set of challenges and truths. Her forties have been the most revealing years.

Monique also invests in small real estate properties in France, to plan for the future and she has created her own line of textiles.

Turning a Challenge into a Movement | Annie Tevelin Oct 12, 2022

Show notes

We just loved our conversation with Annie! She is genuine, open, and oh so wise.

Annie Tevelin is an entrepeneur, and founder of Skin Owl. Her skin care line was created as a result of her own journey with cystic acne. Instead of going on Accutane, she went back to school to study Cosmetic Chemistry and began formulating products that eventually healed her skin. What was originally a journey to help her skin eventually became the catalyst to helping hundreds of others with their most stubborn skin issues. If Annie had never had acne, she never would have created SkinOwl.

+We dive deep into Annie's journey to creating skin owl.

+Her why for moving to Boise from LA.

+Her passion for bringing people together in conversation

+How her podcast 'OFF the Record' brings meaningful conversation into the world.

+We are so inspired by her Parliament Project! (She created an intimate in person dinner series to aid and reestablish each individual's connection with themselves.)

+If you live in the Boise area you MUST go get pampered in her store!
