  • Episode 70 | Biohacking Beauty: Skin, Health & The Power of Going Within

    with Karina Moises — Founder, Beautology Lab

    Host Anna Anisin sits down with Karina Moises, founder of Beautology Lab, a clean-clinical skincare brand focused on stimulating autophagy — the body’s natural detoxification process — to support skin health at a cellular level.

    Karina’s journey into skincare wasn’t driven by trends — it was driven by necessity. After years of struggling with inflammation, gut issues, and chronic skin conditions, she began exploring a deeper approach to healing. What she discovered was a gap: while so much of skincare focuses on the surface, very little addresses what’s happening beneath it.

    So she built something different. Beautology Lab is rooted in the idea that skincare should do more than enhance appearance — it should support the body’s natural ability to repair, detoxify, and regenerate.

    In this conversation, Anna and Karina explore the connection between skin, health, and lifestyle — and why the future of beauty is shifting toward function, not just aesthetics.

    đź‘  Key Moments:

    • Karina’s personal journey through chronic inflammation and skin challenges
    • Why healing from the inside out changed everything
    • What autophagy is — and why it matters for skin health and longevity
    • The gap in traditional skincare and how Beautology Lab is addressing it
    • Clean vs clinical — what actually works and why it matters
    • Skin as a signal — what your body may be trying to tell you
    • The connection between gut health, hormones, and skin
    • Building a brand rooted in both science and personal experience
    • How skin confidence impacts style, presence, and identity
    • Why the future of skincare is about supporting the body — not masking it

    This episode is a reminder that beauty isn’t just something we apply — it’s something we cultivate.Because when you support your body at a deeper level, it shows.

    🎧 Listen now and discover a new way to think about skincare, health, and what it really means to glow.

    with Stephanie Loewenstern — Founder, Bright Link Talent & RAHEL

    This week on I Want Her Shoes Podcast, we’re talking about what it really looks like to rebuild — in business, in life, and in identity.

    Host Anna Anisin sits down with Stephanie Loewenstern, founder of Bright Link Talent, a recruiting firm helping B2B SaaS startups build high-impact GTM teams — and now the founder of RAHEL, a deeply personal platform supporting women navigating pregnancy and early motherhood alone, and not by choice.

    Stephanie’s story is one of duality — building a successful career while also stepping into one of the most unexpected and transformative chapters of her life: becoming a single mother.

    RAHEL was born from that experience — a space designed to provide resources, community, and real support for women facing a version of motherhood that isn’t often talked about.

    In this conversation, Anna and Stephanie explore what it means to build while becoming, to take action before you feel ready, and to redefine strength on your own terms.

    đź‘  Key Moments:

    • Why “waiting until you’re ready” is often the thing holding you back
    • The reality of becoming a single mother — and the parts no one talks about
    • Building RAHEL — a platform created from lived experience and real need
    • The hidden emotional, financial, and logistical challenges of starting over
    • Balancing ambition, motherhood, and identity in a new chapter of life
    • From recruiting to community-building — creating impact in different ways
    • The importance of support systems, and why community is everything
    • Learning to ask for help — and why it’s harder than it sounds
    • How life transitions reshape confidence, priorities, and personal style
    • Showing up in business and life when everything feels uncertain

    This episode is honest, grounded, and deeply human — a reminder that strength doesn’t always look like having it all together.

    Sometimes, it looks like taking the next step anyway.

    🎧 Listen now and be reminded: you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin — and you don’t have to go through it alone.
