Alright, Samantha & Kelly thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Was there a defining moment in your professional career? A moment that changed the trajectory of your career?

Around 2016, I, like most women, was extremely busy with life. My husband and I had/have a successful dental consulting business, and in 2016 in particular; it was really taking off and thriving. Personally, taking care of my skin has always been a passion of mine but up until 2016, I had never really thought about the ingredients in most of the products I was using on my face, hair and body. When I started struggling with fertility treatment in 2016, my own ignorance of ingredients in products came to light when my doctor handed me a list of all the ingredients I needed to stay away from. It was a three-page list of about 400 ingredients I should not use. When I started fertility treatment, I was in my early 40’s. Talk about hormones being all over the place. I saw so many drastic changes in my skin due to so many hormonal fluctuations. I was totally overwhelmed at a very vulnerable time in my life.
