Q&A
Star sign?
Capricorn
Power color?
I wear white almost every day, which feels so good living in the Florida heat.
Favorite flower?
I adore all flowers, but there are three that I am especially drawn to: the white lily, red rose, and the orange blossom. Please donāt ask me to choose only one!
How do you unwind?
I spend time each day in meditation and in prayer, but Iām also drawn to movement and danceāeverything from ballroom dance to sacred danceāand I have a longtime love for Kundalini yoga.
Biggest skin no-no?
Overworking the skin. Skin needs downtime. Most often in the treatment room Iām helping clients to simplify their daily routine in order to let the skin simply be.
Best skin habit?
Reading the label on anything you are considering using on your skin. What we put onto our skināour largest organāis just as important as what we eat.
Go-to snack?
A perfectly ripe sliced avocado with lemon and olive oil.
Guilty pleasure?
Really good dark chocolate, though I donāt feel especially guilty about it!
Preferred getaway spot?
I love spending time in the French countryside, especially visiting the centuries-old medicinal gardens there. Our family also loves the Bahamas, where I lived many years ago, and where I have learned so much about traditional healing.
Surprising skill?
Because I admire the Ayurvedic tradition, Iāve been working on my Indian cooking, using plenty of fresh herbs from the gardenāitās pretty delicious! I love the way these flavors come together.
Most treasured book?
This is the most difficult question, because I am obsessed with books, typically reading at least 3 at a time. A favorite series, however, is The Ringing Cedars Of Russia.
Introvert or extrovert?
Introvert
Smartest business advice?
Do what you love with consideration for the earth and all involved.
