What do you love about your work?
I love that my work is birthed from a burning fire in my belly to contribute to a greater good in the world.

What are your favorite scents?
I love jasmine and rose based scents, frangipani too. I am too aware of the damaging effects of conventional perfume so I always use essential oil based perfumes.

Your beauty ritual/routine?
I use a tongue scraper each morning and night. Always apply sunscreen. Love me a nightly bath with oils and epsom salt. I apply a hair mask once or twice a week and oil my body up. Part of my beauty routine is to keep hydrated with lots of water and greens and get as much sleep and exercise as possible.

What is your creative outlet?
Life is my creative outlet. I try to make everything intentional and fun. From making a meal, to writing a blog entry, to cleaning the house or playing with my toddler. In the more traditional sense of the question, podcasting and growing MLF by exploring different ways of spreading our message is a great creative outlet for me.

How would you explain your style?
I dress according to my mood so its hard to categorize me in one style..Since I have become a mother comfort and practicality rule most of my wardrobe decisions so I try to keep my options playful as well as practical so I don't feel boring in my clothes. Overalls and playsuits are always within arms reach but right now I am loving denim of all sorts and worn plain T-shirts and a cute accessory.
