MEET DR. JEN
HOLISTIC SKIN SCIENTIST & MATERNAL WELLNESS EXPERT
Our skin is magical!
It reflects our beauty.
It holds our truth.
It carries our joy and pain.
Our skin truly tells our story.
Here’s mine…
My pregnancy and postpartum journeys changed how I think about skincare. It went from a routine to a lifeline.
I stumbled my way through vitamin D deficiency, dry skin, inflammation, and prolonged postpartum hair loss, feeling lost, overwhelmed, and uncomfortable in my skin.
​
As I searched for tools to help me feel whole again, I found holistic skincare—a powerful practice rooted in mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness. It helped me care for my skin and remember my magic, but I had to figure it out on my own.
We aren’t meant to travel this journey alone. We need community to support us along the way.
So, I’m honored to walk beside you—to help you glow, grow, and heal out loud.
​​
​Love, Peace & Radiant Skin,
Dr. Jen
