We all have experience with various forms of grief, whether it be the death of a family member or the loss of an important job. It's easy to flounder and not know how to "properly grieve." So how do we move forward after the loss? Susan Cain is the #1 bestselling author of "Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole," an Oprah's Book Club pick, and "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking," which spent nine years on The New York Times best-seller list. We talk about her books, coping with grief, socializing as introverts, living with joy and sorrow in our hearts, and more. Susan is also a public speaker who's TED talks have been viewed over 40 million times. LinkedIn named her the Top 6th Influencer in the World. Her book, "Bittersweet," launches in paperback on June 20th! P.S.

There is hope for your acne. I talked with the founders of CLEARSTEM Skincare, Danielle Gronich & Kayleigh Christina. We discussed the root causes of acne, acne triggers, how to properly pop a pimple at home, their varying skincare routines based on skin type, and more. Danielle became known as The Acne Guru™ when she founded The San Diego Acne Clinic. After dealing with acne for ten years and three failed rounds of Accutane, she took her acne health into her own hands and created the clinic’s 98% success rate in improving acne for others. Kayleigh, a Holistic Nutritionist, became a patient after her dead-end quest to cure her acne. After seeing the results that Danielle was able to deliver for Kayleigh, the two decided to join forces to help others clear their skin. And with that, CLEARSTEM was born!    CLEARSTEM Skincare is the only anti-aging and anti-acne skincare line with zero hormone disruptors and zero toxins.

I'm back with part 2 of our conversation with therapists and couple Vanessa Bennett and John Kim. In this episode, we continue with their thoughts on taking breaks from fights and confronting your partner about annoyances. Additionally, we discussed codependency, abandonment issues, personal accountability, and more! John is a licensed therapist and author whose journey started with divorce and healing from a broken heart. Through helping others, he found his voice and fell in love with talking about love. Vanessa is also a licensed therapist and author. Her goal is to make therapists feel accessible. To show that they are not above anyone else. You'll love their approaches. Together they wrote a book titled "It's Not Me, It's You: Break the Blame Cycle. Relationship Better."
