• Research Spotlight: Inflammaging is the Future of Skincare and Longevity with Dr Ekta Yadav

  In this special episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta Yadav celebrates a milestone moment—her latest mini review, Inflammation and Aging: The Skin Inflammasome in the Context of Longevity Science, has been published in the Journal of Cellular Immunology. This episode offers listeners a deep but accessible dive into the mechanisms that link chronic inflammation, skin health, and the biology of aging.Dr. Yadav unpacks the concept of “inflammaging,” explaining how low-grade, persistent inflammation accelerates skin aging and predisposes us to a host of conditions—from acne and psoriasis to pigmentation disorders. Central to this is the NLRP3 inflammasome, a cellular sensor that responds to both internal stress and external insults. But the conversation doesn’t stop at surface-level inflammation—it zooms out to show how NAD+ depletion, mTOR signaling, sirtuin activity, and cellular senescence all play a role in the skin’s aging clock.Listeners will get a taste of the therapeutic landscape too—from the promise of repurposed drugs like metformin and rapamycin to the caution needed around immune modulation. Dr. Yadav also weaves in emerging research on gut-skin interactions and psychoneuroendocrine links, emphasizing the systemic nature of skin health in the context of longevity.If you’re curious about the future of aging, biohacking, or the real science behind graceful skin longevity, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to learn what’s next in skin biology—and why inflammation is more than just skin deep.Read the full article HERE.To learn more about Dr. Ekta, visit her social media.

• How Regenerative Focus Starts With Self Compassion Ft. Dr. Julia Colangelo

  In this Mindset Monday episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Dr. Julia Colangelo to unpack the transformative power of flow state—a mental zone where creativity, clarity, and ease converge. A therapist, educator, and researcher in the psychology of flow, Dr. Julia explains how this state of consciousness helps us tap into regenerative energy and unlock our deepest creative potential.Flow isn’t just about peak productivity—it’s a practice of sustainable, aligned doing. While mindfulness asks us to notice the present moment, flow challenges us to channel that awareness into meaningful action. Dr. Julia shares how flow helped her recover from burnout and how it can serve as a tool for healing and self-empowerment.Listeners will learn why we lose our natural ability to enter flow as we age, how societal expectations and trauma can block our access to this state, and how to create rituals that welcome flow into daily life. Dr. Julia introduces the concept of regenerative flow—a cycle of activation and recovery that prevents burnout and supports long-term creativity and well-being.From neuroscience to nature, this conversation touches on how intentional energy use, communication, and lifestyle design can help anyone—especially women and caregivers—reclaim space for their creativity.Tune in to learn why flow isn’t just a productivity hack—it’s a feminist act of self-preservation and a neuroscience-backed gateway to joy, resilience, and innovation.CHAPTERS:(0:02) Introduction to Flow State and Dr. Julia Colangelo(1:13) Dr. Julia Colangelo’s Journey into Flow Research(1:50) What is Flow State and How It Relates to Childhood(4:26) The Difference Between Mindfulness and Flow State(6:10) How Flow State Enhances Creativity and Performance(7:28) Cultivating Flow State and Setting Up for Success(10:06) Self-Compassion and Energy Management for Flow(17:22) Integrating Flow State into Daily Life(24:04) The Science of Sustainable and Regenerative Flow StatesTo learn more about Dr. Julia Colangelo, visit her website and social media.Don’t forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.
