Miranda Kerr On Wellness & Beauty Rituals, Health Non-Negotiables, & How To Stay Present & Grounded

40:08We'll have three kids in the hotel room and we want to go back and like take them out for a souffle. When you would take them out to dinner at the table, would they sit there at three and five or are you putting like a screen or giving them colors? Like what were your tools that you were doing when they were that young? So it depends on each child. Okay. So, you know, I, my seven-year-old has always loved books. So I could sit him with the book. My teenager, I could sit him with coloring because he was very much into, or a pen and paper and he would draw. I mean, it's not always perfect, but, you know, and then the, the wild one, who's my Hot Wheels crystal guy, you know, I mean, he will just do, he'll follow the lead of his older brothers.

40:56when we're in that kind of setting. So he'll be interested in like, oh, what are you drawing? Or like, what are you building? Like if we bring a little Lego or something, he'll do that with his brother. And then the baby, he hasn't really been in that situation. Don't you love when they're babies because they just sit there? I do, but not one and a half. Oh, I forgot. What is one and a half? Like, are they moving? Yeah, they're walking. Big time? Big time. Everyone, all the moms at school are like bragging to each other about when their kids walk. And I'm like, well, I don't, I'm like, my kid can take as long as he wants.

41:27No, because once they move, they just get faster and faster. So I'm with you. I mean, zero to one is so nice because you can just cuddle them and they're not moving really around much, except for when they start crawling. Mine can take all the time in the world to crawl. That's right. All the time. And they do grow. Slow and steady wins the race. That's right. How many years now have you been building Cora? Oh, so the concept was in 2006. and then I launched in Australia 2009 and then I didn't launch here until 2017 and it's still 95 % I'm 95 % owner of the company so how many years is that how many years has that been it's like almost 19 years how many and how many of those years did you feel like obviously you came from modeling had a huge career like how long did it take you to feel like I got this I'm the CEO now and transition into that role you know to be honest the like CEO role is something that I'm actually thinking about i'm like do i really want to maintain that role with being a mother of four i understand that and i feel like there is a part of it that i love and i you know i've been through so many phases with my company because i've been through the obviously beginning stage and and micromanaging kind of everyone and everything phase and then i went to the opposite extreme of like let empower people to be in their power and employ people who are really passionate about what they're doing and you know sometimes that's great but then sometimes you have to come back in and take the reins like obviously being a founder is really the most important thing to me I don't really you know I and that's why at this point in my life I'm like do I let go of the CEO role because it is a lot of pressure running my company having four children and i really do prioritize my family and i want to have my family come first but actually core organics is like a little baby girl and i've said that before and it is something that needs so much attention as you guys know having your own businesses it's it does require a lot of attention not a lot of people that come from your background right yes high level modeling transition and build a company for 20 years and have it be successful and be the ceo and the face and have four children in the meantime have four children no and so i imagine like there's like it wasn't easy obviously no but i i just think about like what kind of mindset shifts needed to happen for you to go from that to this because like i'll i'll relate it in this way running to your media is completely different than sitting and doing this show with you yes and it's a completely different mentality mentality and mindset yeah different part of your brain that's working as well yeah it's interesting because we work with a lot of people that i would say like have more of like a creator entertainer like just creative background and sometimes like that shift to actually building and running a business is more challenging but you but you've done it yeah i'm doing it and it's something that i feel like i'm still continually learning every day even after 19 years and i feel like i'll always want to learn and grow and that's the same with my husband and he is like someone who I often will go to and say what do you think of this and and he will guide me back to myself which is really important because as a founder and as a CEO you often do doubt yourself and you're like am I doing the right thing is this is this you know the right choice for the company and he often will say look I believe in you you have an incredible product and you know in yourself and in your heart like the right choice and that actually has rung true for me throughout like my whole business relationship with Cora when I have actually quietened my mind and gone into my deeper part of myself my intuition I've made the right choices for my company and that goes from employing the right team to creating the products like when I had pushback from some of my team members on they might not necessarily feel like this certain product is what they feel is like important to create but I have this strong conviction that this is what we need to create and this strong knowingness and intuition and then I do it and then it becomes a bestseller And so that's really important to continue to always listen to your intuition.

45:57And I also think it's important to know that you can't do it all and to have people that are actually smarter than you working in roles that aren't your strengths and complementing you in that way. There's a real finesse between being able to listen to someone, but also listen to your gut. Yes. It's a finesse. It is. You got it. You got you. You do, of course, have to listen to your team members and the audience. But you also have to be ahead of the curve and you also have to stay true to what you want to do. And to find that finesse, I think, takes it's it's takes a while. It does. Yeah, that's that's I've found that in my own company.

46:35Yeah, you really do. And I think, as you said, it's important to listen to the customers. It's important to listen to the feedback from your team. But at the end of the day, if there's a knowingness inside of yourself that something just feels right, I feel like that's the energy flowing through you that you need to listen to. When it comes to the business and professionally, what's the dynamic between you and your husband? Because Lauren and I obviously have a dynamic where we do this thing together and it can get testy at times. But you guys are in separate businesses. Yes. So how do you, I guess like the question is how do you work together if you do it all?

47:08well we have a lot of like appreciation for the differences that we bring to the table and he knows that I'm like very heart-centered and very focused on like compassion and love and coming from that place I mean all of my products are filtered through rose quartz so that's like the core of my business but at the same time he is very you know cerebral and and that is great because he'll have different ideas and I'll be able to say and look at things from a different perspective with his insight and you know and I think that that is what makes a great team when you're able to listen to the other person and really take that on and not take offense to it Is he intense with his opinions?

48:01Oh, very intense. Huh. So intense. Huh? I can't imagine. Do you guys bring work into the house or do you separate it or is it just like fluid? It's quite fluid. Yeah, that's how our life is. I don't think you can like take it. I think it's just our work is our life is our business is our kids. It's a big pot stirred with all of it. It is. Every time couples say that they like have these boundaries, I call it bullshit because I don't see how it's even possible. Look, I think if you go away for a little, you know, my husband and I just were in Sedona for one night away. Oh, how fun. It was so nice.

48:39And I must say, it was like one of the best things for us in our relationship. And we've known for a very long time it's important to make that space for each other. And that was a lot of advice that, you know, if we ask people what is the key to, you know, to being together forever and what creates that lasting happiness. And they always say, make sure that you spend that one-on-one time with each other. And so when we have times like that, we try not to bring up work in those situations when we're, but in our everyday life, obviously work and kids are part of our everyday life. It's all blended.

49:12Yeah. I want to talk about some of the things that you listed that you wrote down, some wellness things that you're doing. You mentioned off air, hyperbaric chamber, but I'll let you kind of walk us through some cool things. I know we started the episode, but we didn't get to finish the list. There's a lot of different things. There are a lot of things. Yes. So hyperbaric chamber, I think, is really great because it oxygenates, obviously, the cells. And I feel like there's been a lot of research done on hyperbaric chamber. And Dr. Arman talks about how good it is for the brain and mental health.

49:46And also there's been studies done on the benefits for your body as well. And also, I think, I'm not 100 % sure, but I'm pretty sure it's like quite good for anti-aging as well. Like Brian Johnson talks about it a lot. Have you done one of the Brian Johnson dinners yet? I have. Yeah. He's great. He's got a lot of interesting opinions. We love Brian. He has a lot of interesting opinions. I'm open to it all. Yeah. I mean, it's obviously I'm not living that life. Yeah. But I think it's really great to be curious and to learn from him and to take some of those really great tips, like going to bed early.

50:26Would you follow the AI, yes or no? Yeah, what did you say? I said to him that honestly, if my whole family wasn't, then I wouldn't be able to do it, right? So. Everyone would have to opt in. Everyone would have to opt in. I think I said no. Did you have a dinner with him? Yeah. Oh yeah. I think I said no. And then like, I don't know if that was the right answer. Were you still hungry after the dinner? but i mean i needed more than the we went down to giorgio baldi afterwards and had pasta bottles of wine i mean listen but i love brian i really i was i love brian i love his message but i need a little bit more than strawberry soup to get me through the night to nourish myself i know i i understand maybe i needed to and i relate to that i needed to scale into the strawberry soup to be able to like sustain myself maybe but at the same time i mean the soreness like he's into the soreness which we've known for many years people have used for many years for their health benefits his message overall is a very good message i think he's misunderstood because he's so eccentric right he is misunderstood but his message is he just wants to help people live longer yeah i think it's good and i did tell him it should be yes i said it should be a more positive message like it shouldn't be don't die it should be let's live yeah yeah i agree because It should be more uplifting instead of fear.

51:49This is what I tell my team when they email someone. I'm like, don't use the word. Unfortunately, don't's a negative word. Yes. It's like there's a way to say it. Words are powerful. I like him changing his message, Brian. I'm trying. Yeah, I tried at the dinner to tell him, but, you know, he's got his. It's a wild dinner. Yeah. When you came on last time, you told us about your medical medium, celery juice, and heavy metal detox smoothie. Are you still doing that? I'm doing celery juice, but not to the 16 ounces. I'm doing more eight ounces. So I'll do lemon water, celery juice. And then I have my coffee.

52:24And I have my coffee with coconut milk. And then I put a little drop of stevia in there. Okay. And then after that, I have my aloe juice and then my noni juice. Where is the aloe juice from and where is the noni juice from? The noni is Tahitian noni. The same noni I've been drinking since I was 13. Do you know the brand? Tahitian noni. It's called Tahitian noni. You can get it on Amazon. What's the aloe juice? I just get that one from O1, actually. And you do this every single morning? Every morning. Is the coffee that you're drinking like mold-free, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah? The coffee that I'm drinking is definitely, I know, lead-free.

53:03Okay. Because there's this whole lot of information about lead right now being in a lot of products and being in a lot of the soil, so being in a lot of, like, yeah. So anyway. What's the brand that you like? That is chameleon cold brew. Chameleon cold brew? Yeah. That stuff's strong. Oh, it's very strong. I didn't realize until my son told me. Yeah, it's strong. No, that stuff is really strong. Yeah. Like you can't have like a big cup. You have to have a little. A little. You mentioned meditation and you mentioned a kind that you were doing. Can you tell us exactly what it is? I want to know just selfishly.

53:38Yeah. Vedic meditation. Okay. And you can look up Uma Mother and her name is Patty. and she can teach you Vedic meditation. She also does yoga. So I just did a two-day intensive with her where we were doing, so after the kids went to school, we did like rounding, which is like yoga stretching and then sit and meditate. And I noticed a benefit in my aura ring. I was much like I was in restored for that, you know, part of the day. and then it had effects like moving on for the next you know for this last week I've been able to maintain being in the relaxed and restored mode because I did have that little reset with her doing like a two-day intensive of meditation and there's a lot of science to back up meditation being beneficial and even and I said to her because I've been practicing for a very long time and I said to her even though I've been practicing since I was 18 I still have days where my mind is just like like firing the whole time and she said well that's fine and there shouldn't be judgment with that because that is a moment for your mind to kind of decompress and let go of a lot of stress so even if you're not going as deep you're still getting your feet wet so it's like even if you're going into the pool and you're going in the shallow end your feet are still getting wet huh so I really liked that concept contact.

55:07I mean, I think meditation, and you mentioned this earlier, is like the foundation of everything. I agree. Sitting in silence with yourself. I think you get so many answers. I agree. When you think about your business during the day, I'm curious, again, for myself, how you structure calls, meetings, team, teamwork. Is there a day that you take off for self-care? Like, how do you structure your week and your time every single day? Planning is important and working to the T with your calendar is something that I think is so beneficial and so important. Everything from like, you know, dropping off the kids to travel time, coming back to can I take a call when I'm on the way back in the car to putting the baby down for his nap to then doing a podcast with you.

55:57And then after this, I've got a Zoom call with two of my other team members, but really planning and prioritizing and planning and prioritizing the week and then planning, prioritizing the month, then planning and prioritizing your time for the year. So we actually as a family have planned out like where we're going on vacation for the next year. So we've got it all planned and organized and we know that we'll have that quality time together and it gives us something to look forward to, especially in the times when we know we're going to be working a lot. it gives us like a lot of things to be excited about.

56:31I think like for the whole family, it's a good thing to do because I like to travel when we do that. But part of the thing is it's like the carrot on the stick with the horse. Like, okay, I'm working and doing these things. So then we can. So we can do the thing. Yeah. And really enjoy it when we get there. And that is really the key to life. And I actually said this to my little six-year-old. I said, do you want to know the secret to life? And he was like, yeah. Because he is very spiritual. He's the one with the Hot Wheels and the crystals that he loves. He's fascinated with crystals. And he was like, yeah.

56:59And I said, you have to just enjoy every moment. Like the power is in every moment. And he was like, okay. And I said, and we have little tea parties, like a little lemon balm tea and a little chocolate. And I said, now have a sip of your tea. And I was like, now have a bite of this chocolate and close your eyes and just be really in the moment. and he was like I was like didn't that taste like the best piece of chocolate you've ever had and he was like yeah and then this was like a year ago and he went to his preschool teacher and he goes do you want to know the secret of life and he told her and he's just like you know he's on that level which is great I love that age because you can just like sing a song like a manipulation song like I sing to my son he's living with his mom for the rest of his life and there's no one but his mom he loves his mom his friends went home with his mom and said like you can just really like tell them like such positive things and then they repeat it in their own way their own way and then the friend went home and said dad i was with miranda kerr and she told me to close my eyes and take a bite of the chocolate doesn't that sound great and the dad's like it sure does son no this is just with my little six-year-old yeah i'm just kidding he's saying that he's saying that your six-year-old has a friend and the friend goes to the dad and the dad gets excited oh it's you yeah um what else do you do with your time meaning like with your team you mentioned that you like to empower people on your team what are is there like a big meeting every week i want to know how you run your business because it seems like you're running your wellness you're running your family you're running all these different things how are you running the business?

58:40So when we, before COVID, when we had an office in LA, I was very big on kind of integrating the wellness into the office. And so we had a masseuse that would come in once a week and give everyone like a 15 minute shoulder rub while they're at their desk. And we would do meditations together and it was really nice. But since COVID, our team is spread all over America. and so like we don't have that office space where we're all together and I actually you know I'd love to build it back up but we have so many great people now that are working all over the country it's you know it's something that we do get together you know for the big meetings and we'll that will be once a year and then we'll you know we'll talk about everything and run through everything and everyone will come in and then we'll do like a Christmas party and we all enjoy that time together.

59:40But I would love to get back into incorporating more wellness into kind of the everyday like practice. How do you and your husband decide what social events you're going to go to? Because I'm sure you guys get invited to everything and it seems like you guard your time. Michael and I are the same way. We're very intentional about where we put our energy. Yes. How do you guys sort of what's the filter for that we talk to each other and we say is this something you would like to do does it is it really worth our energy and going because we all know it does take a lot of energy to go to these events and sure there's moments of fun and you can enjoy yourself but you know getting hair and makeup and then you know all these things and spending time away from your family is it really going to be in the best interest of our whole family to do that and you know half the time we're like honestly i'd rather stay home and be with the kids and they do grow up so fast so we've been extremely selective with what we do go to but there are some things that we go to and you know and we really enjoy like the met ball um that's one i think that you can make an exception yeah i think you're gonna go to your party that was a good party that was a fun that was a good party my birthday party my 40th that was so fun so that was fun for me because i got to like decorate the whole place it was beautiful it was it was really just my i got to share you know with everyone a lot that brought me joy like when it came to music and dancing and just having everyone there from all over the world really to celebrate my 40th birthday.

1:01:22It was so special. It was a strong guest list, Miranda. It was. And I must say that my husband really encouraged that because up until that point, I would literally just want to have a picnic in the backyard with the kids. And he's like, no, Miranda, you're turning 40. We're going to go big. And I was like, really? And then I just really got into it and I enjoyed it so much. 40 is a big one though. And I really had a great time. Are you taking notes for my birthday? Yeah, but you're - No, I want a surprise party. She's wishy-washy. I want a surprise. No, I'm not wishy-washy. Yes, you are. I want a surprise party.

1:01:52She wants a surprise. That you plan with a planner that gets my aesthetic. A long table. You want a surprise party that you know exactly what the surprise is. That's what she wants. Yeah, who doesn't? But then sometimes she says, I only want like friends, like close friends and family. And then other things she's like, no, I need 200 people. No, no, no, I've decided. I think you just make it small because like. Intimate. Yeah, I think just intimate. But I do like your idea too. I wouldn't be mad if you did a surprise party like that. No, it's like, I'm telling you, whatever way the wind's blowing, it changes.

1:02:19It's like, I need intimate. Well, I think she wants like an intimate dinner. That's what I'm hearing. There's an intimate long table involved. Good lighting, right? Yeah, yeah. Dim lit. Not hard, Michael. Yeah, dim lighting, great food, great company. Yeah. People that she actually wants to spend time with. And then there's a potential of a fun party that could be bigger afterwards. Okay, so it's like, it's really two parties. Basically. Yeah. It's like a dinner and then a party. I think you need to get on planning this, though. I think I keep telling you and reminding you about it. You need to, like, really pull out the tricks.

1:02:54Marcy Bloom, please call me back. Thank you. No, but your husband pulled the tricks out. Yes. Yeah, he figured it out. Whatever he did, he figured it out. He did. I told you that was good. And we don't go to a lot of things because, again, I think you guys, especially with the kids, it's hard. It's hard. I don't know what it's like staying past 8 o 'clock these days. I love going to bed early and I love waking up early. It's really so good. It's good for your metabolism. It's so good for everything. Yeah, it's so much. And actually, I'm just so grateful that my husband loves that. And he was the one who got me into going to bed early.

1:03:28What time were you going to bed before? I just would. I mean, it would be like we'd be dating. This is like 11 years ago and it'd be like Friday night and he'd be like, hey, let's get into bed. And I'm like it's 8 30 and he's like yeah and I'm like what and he's like we're not going anywhere and I'm like okay and then I get into bed you know and he's like snuggling me I'm like it's not even to like make out he just wants to snuggle and go to sleep and you know not every time anyway um and then I was like okay and then I really understood the benefits of like going to bed early what time were you going to bed before like what was an average bedtime like 11 okay so nothing crazy nothing crazy but I would just you know after Flynn went to bed I would then potter around the house and just kind of I don't know tidy up and just have my process and I get it yeah I call it putzing yeah but now I kind of do that in the morning so I've shifted it from being doing that at night which is like there was something like soothing and calming about doing that at night when like it was very quiet and calm and and now doing that in the morning has a similar kind of vibe but a little more energizing what are you watching reading consuming content podcasts like what are the things that you let into your ether with content good question it's very limited I like to read books I like to read about like anything to do with like psychology children health and wellness so i actually bought three of my favorite books there was a book that you recommended on an episode of someone's podcast and i bought it which one but i can't remember remember was so this one is really great this is the mind gut connection by dr mayer it was the second one this one i bought it oh great i haven't read it yet i bought it though.

1:05:26Oh, you really, oh, this book will change your life. This is Power vs. Force by David Hawkins. This changed my life. And even if I'm having like a challenging day, I will either pick up this book, flick to a page, or even just listen on YouTube. He has a lot of lectures that he's done and you can listen on there. And he's just very uplifting. What's the like major theme or a couple of themes of the book? He talks about consciousness and he's an MD and a PhD and he talks about how every thought, you know, affects us on a cellular level and how we can choose our thoughts and elevate our reality by, you know, maintaining more of like a higher consciousness.

1:06:14So for instance, you know, if you're down in, like here's, it's probably in here, the scale of consciousness. I don't want to butcher his words, but it is, I don't know, just, oh yeah, the scale of consciousness. Here you go. Appendix B, one, three, one. You talked about this book on another podcast, how much it's changed your life. Oh, it has. And this has been, so there's a map of consciousness. So we have, here we go. So at the bottom is shame and that is the consciousness of like 20. And then at the top is enlightenment and that is like between 700 and 1000 consciousness. And so what was interesting to me about this is that there's love, right?

1:07:04And we all know that the love that you have for your partner, the love you have as a mother, the love you have for your tribe, your community, you know, that is very uplifting and empowering to have that love. But above that is joy and above that is peace. And then above that is enlightenment. and so he talks about like as human beings we can go through the different waves of emotion throughout the day and it's about not staying in that negative emotion like see anxiety is down here and it's at the level of fear and it resonates at 100 and so if you can then shift your perspective to come to kind of like where is it it's like forgiveness is like a big one and like forgiving yourself forgiving others for anything that they've done to harm you intentionally or unintentionally like peacemaking is really important and and transcending your consciousness through doing that and so this this is just one I think that everyone would benefit from reading and then another great book is good inside if you've read that one by dr becky kennedy i have not read it but we interviewed her should i also read it we really like she also has an app she's great she helped us a lot yeah she's helped me so much with how to speak to children yes and also she's she helps a lot with mom guilt because she says how important it is for you and to be doing what is important to you and that the children also learn how important it is that obviously work is a part of life and it's inevitable that everyone will be and it's good for them to see you and your passion.

1:09:00Quick break to talk about function. Ever since Lauren and I learned about function from Dr. Mark Iman, who's been on this podcast, we have been absolutely obsessed. We chose Function because it's the only health platform that gives us data most people never get and the insights to start doing something about it. Inside Function, you get access to test over 100 plus biomarkers from hormones to toxins to markers of heart health, inflammation, and stress. And for an additional fee, you can also access MRIs and chest CT scans, all tracked in one secure place over time. What I love about platforms like this is it gives you the power as the patient to go and decide what's best for your body and for your health.

1:09:36Long gone are the days where you're walking around in the dark blindly, not knowing how to take care of yourself, not knowing why you have issues. With Function, you can test so many different things that give you the insights you need to completely change and overall your health today.

1:10:05Your immune system is supposed to protect you, but here's the thing. Sometimes it misfires.

1:10:36So many times during the day, I just want a drink that feels real. Something bubbly and cultured that tastes great and actually heals my gut. And that is why I have been drinking so much Synergy Kombucha. Both at the studio and at home, our fridge is always stocked with Synergy. And here's the thing. This is real Kombucha. No shortcuts. It's always raw. It's never pasteurized. Synergy is made with real organic ingredients that you can see and taste. That's how you know they're working. You're getting scientifically backed benefits with every sip, like gut health, digestive support, immunity, and protein absorption.

1:11:12Synergy is the OG kombucha, and I've always loved their story, which goes back 30 years. Their founder, G.T. Dave, first began brewing in his parents' kitchen in 1995 after his mother's breast cancer diagnosis. Inspired by her recovery and the healing power of kombucha, he kept perfecting the recipe and eventually shared it with the world. That same very recipe is what you still find on shelves today, crafted with authenticity and trusted for its real benefits. Each bottle delivers 9 billion living probiotics across a diverse spectrum of beneficial bacteria you won't find in your average supplement.

1:11:49That diversity comes naturally from the way each batch is slowly fermented. These living cultures work hard to help your gut thrive. And when your gut microbiome is more diverse, the benefits multiply, all working to make your gut feel better. It's a daily reset for your body, any time of the day that you will actually feel. And Synergy doesn't just improve your wellness. It also tastes good. There are over 20 bold flavors, so you'll definitely find one that you love. I've been into Synergy forever and usually gravitate towards the tropical flavors. But this fall, I've been reaching for more flavors that celebrate the season.

1:12:24Honey, crisp, apple. Cranberry, blood orange, they really have flavors for everyone. Each one is tangy, vibrant, and naturally bubbly. There's a party in every bottle. And there's a reason kombucha is our go-to. And of course, there's a reason it's always Synergy. They were the first bottle of kombucha, paving the way for kombucha as we know it. And it's been the number one in the U.S. and worldwide for over 30 years. So sip it, love your gut, and feel the power of kombucha when it's crafted the right way. Ready to get started on your very own gut health journey? Visit SynergyDrinks.com to find your Synergy flavor today.

1:14:30I use it all day long. I use it in the morning. I use it to touch up my brows. I even use it at night. Why it's amazing is it's castor oil. Castor oil is what Egyptians used to use to grow their hair. And I added a peptide to it. So it's a little oomph. So many of these brow growth serums on the market are melting the fat around the eyes, which is so crazy. And this one is just non-toxic. I use it while pregnant and it just gives your brows this like glazed, useful look, almost like a feathered brow. It's so pretty. I caught Michael using it. That's how like clean it is. A guy can use it and it lifts your face.

1:15:11I use this after my skincare. So in the morning, I habit stack it onto all of my skincare. So I'll do everything. I'll put my caffeinated sunscreen on and then I'll just use the spoolie to go through my brows and brush them up. And like I said, it gives you like a wet lifted look. And then I also will use the little lash one. See how we have like a little lash situation at the bottom on top of my lashes before I go to bed after my skincare. You can touch up your brows with this. I sometimes even will use brow pencil, my makeup artists use it I think this is my favorite skinny confidential product I'm very very proud of this and it works it grows your brows because like I said castor oil Egyptians telling you you got to try this I have one in every purse you can't go wrong you can subscribe on our site shop skinny confidential.com and it's delivered straight to your door if you want to upgrade your beauty routine and upgrade your eyebrows and lift your face you got to try the Skinny Confidential's brow peptide.

1:16:16Emma Greed told me, because I'm obsessed with this topic of mom guilt, you have to tell me how you deal with this. And I asked her about this and she's like, I would go to my daughter and I'd be like, I'm so sorry. Like mom has to go to work. I'm going to miss you so much. And she was like, no, Lauren, you should reframe it. She's like, you should go to her and you should say, I get to go do what I love. Exactly. And it lights me up but I'm so excited to come back and see you after work. And see you and cuddle. Yeah. And that is important for your kids to see that you're in your passion and you're doing something that you're passionate about.

1:16:48And then they will then have that as a role model for them to follow their own passion and do what lights them up. Next time I go to the dive bar with my friends, I'm going to say, you know what, honey, I get to go do what I love. I could use a break. How do you deal with mom guilt? it's something I deal like I literally struggle with daily yeah it's really hard it's really hard and I try to tell myself these things that it's okay and you know and it's hard when like I had a mother who was working a lot and I have a lot more work life balance than she could have ever afforded because she didn't have the opportunity to work from home like I do and you know I really it kind of makes me a little more

1:17:43like want to make sure that my children don't feel like how I felt as a child in a way and I know my mom was only doing the best that she could at the time but she wasn't able to make like a lot of the things at school so I'm like always the first mom there on the you know at the school whenever they want to volunteer I'm like yes I'm one of those three moms that are there because I want to make sure that my children have that because I felt like that I was missing that growing up and I think that that leads to a part of that guilt somehow inside of me because I don't want them to feel how I felt but actually they're just fine they're doing great they're feeling very confident they love it when I am able to you know go to their school things like the other day i'm sure their friends do too yeah if it makes you feel better i had a mother my entire life that always worked and did her own thing and had her own business yeah and i appreciate it later in life as a man and i think it's also attracted to me to women that's just basically having that strength yeah and i think for your sons it's a it's a good example i think oh i think it's also taught me to have that work ethic myself and i always knew that my mother was there for me and that she loved me unconditionally and would do anything for me.

1:19:00There was never a lack of love. There just wasn't as much presence as having her there, but I was so fortunate that I had my grandmother there. And, you know, my grandmother taught me so much from, like, you know, how to dress, how to cook, how to, like, I would sit and read the Bible with her. I mean I just had a lot of heartwarming conversations with her and I wouldn't have even had that relationship if my mom was as strong as I had with my grandma if my mom was a stay-at-home mom so it all was exactly as it was meant to be you know and I feel like as you said it inspires me now to be able to have my own business and feel like I can do it because I saw my mom do that and it really did teach me the importance of having that good strong work ethic like look let's be real I could I don't need to be doing this Cora Organics like I but I'm doing it because I love it it's my passion and I believe people deserve so much better than what they're getting and as you were saying like people have are doing hydrogen baths because what you put on your skin it's absorbed and that is why people should be really aware of what they're putting on their skin and that's why I created Cora Organics actually because my mom had tumors in her spleen and as a teenager I witnessed and got to learn and understand so much more about health and wellness because of my mom's sickness and we learned that you know that what you put on your skin soaks in and that then we went on a hunt to find products that were purely certified organic and efficacious and we weren't able to find them.

1:20:48Right. And now, you know, clean beauty is out there and it's... Greenwashed. It's a dirty word. And I get put into that category of clean and sure, core organics is clean, but we're so much more than clean being certified organic by a world certification, EcoCert Cosmos. and until you know better, how can you do better? Right? My mom was used to lather perfume all over herself. And we all know that that's an endocrine disruptor and it contains over 300 chemicals. Lauren disrupted an entire restaurant the other night because somebody sat down with an entrepreneur. She made us move. Literally, they jigsaw puzzled the entire place.

1:21:29I'm not going to eat my spaghetti next to someone who is drenched head to toe in Angel. I was hiding in my jacket. I would have done the same thing. I'm sure you would have. Here's my thing with scents. If you want to wear a perfume or a scent or a lotion, you do that, but don't project it onto everyone in the whole world. Yes. By spraying so much that we have to endure the Christmas tree in the Uber. Yes. That's not. I don't wear any fragrance at all. No. No deodorant, no cologne, nothing. I was just going to ask you if you wear any fragrance or if you just do essential oil. I do essential oils.

1:21:58What's your essential oil that you wear? So I have rose, and I also have a blend that Martha made me from Serea Spa. Love it. Which is a blend specifically for me. And it's a very grounding blend because she makes it based on your Ayurvedic dosha, like pitta and vata. I'm very vata. And so she made the essential oil blend for me. That's really cool. Yeah. Before you go, I know because I've seen you in the Skinny Confidential Mouth Tape. Oh, I'm obsessed with Skinny Confidential Mouth Tape. That's part of your routine. I would love for you to walk us through your evening routine with your products and whatever products that you use to get you to bed.

1:22:41Yes. And my husband is often in bed saying, Miranda, come on. Can you just get into bed? I'm sure he is. I'm still doing my routine, honey. Tell him sorry. Your mouth is shut. Yeah. Well, that's why I'm like, okay, but like before I put the tape on and make sure that, you know, all business is attended to. to the other side of the bed after the tape is on and the retainer is in and tapped me oh and then you're like oh really and you're like okay moment calls oh my god i'm like can't you take a hint well i think sometimes it goes on like a little like early before you've checked you haven't you haven't checked the perimeters yet lauren you have not disturb you haven't you haven't made that you haven't asked if everything's good yet you just kind of throw it on and think you're gonna squeak away it's a it's a it sends a dog whistle um can you walk us through like your your evening before you go like tell us all the steps you take yeah so after i get the kids to bed then it's time for me to have a little me time and we have an incredible cleanser it's like a cleansing balm it's the active algae cleansing balm that i use to remove my makeup okay and i'll use that first and then and i just remove the makeup that way and then i'll go in and double cleanse because I love a double cleanse.

1:23:58I use the foaming cleanser, which is incredible. And I keep that in the shower because I just love to use it morning and night. And then after the foaming cleanser, depending on the day, if I need a little extra scrub, I'll do the turmeric scrub. If it's been, you know, a makeup heavy day and I just want to really kind of draw out any impurities, that's what I'll use the turmeric scrub. I think you like that one. I like the turmeric scrub and I also love your cleansing balm the active algae one yeah amazing yeah it because you know why it removes the makeup so seamlessly yes and you're not like digging on your skin yeah and it's got the pineapple enzymes in there oh I love to like gently cleanse your skin and exfoliate your skin okay so then after that um and that's I use our body wash in the shower and then at that point like the lights are dim and you know I'm in my bathroom and actually my husband and I have separate bathrooms.

1:24:51So I get to have my little moment in the bathroom and my little zen moment. And then I mist my face with the minty mist once I'm out. And I let that kind of sit. And then I'll put the body oil on all over. Like I said, that Noni Glow body oil. I need to give you some if you haven't had it. So you created your routine. Oh, my whole ritual. Yeah. So the body oil and I mix a little bit of our body moisturizer and I put it like literally like from my neck to my feet and I literally get that oil in every little like like in my toes on the bottoms of my feet everything and then I do the plant stem cell retinol alternative serum which is amazing I haven't tried that yet I have some here for you and the plant stem cell retinol moisturizer so those products it's like over 80 percent of die-hard fans retinol fans said they got better results from using our plant stem cell retinol than traditional retinol i am not a fan of traditional retinol i get eaten alive it gets red and irritated and that's why i created this you can actually use these formulas twice a day no redness no irritation it works on fine lines It works on plumping the skin.

1:26:09It works on renewing the skin. It is amazing. So Miranda agrees with me, TikTok. Yes. Next time you guys eat me alive, she agrees. I seriously couldn't agree with you more. It's stripping. It's stripping your skin. But this has Bakuchi oil and alfalfa. Yeah. And it also has acai plant stem cells to really nourish your skin. Michael's going to steal all the products that you give me. Yeah. I can see his brain. I've got some for you as well. Don't worry. I'm going to be lathering my body up with the oil. Don't get too excited. Don't get too excited. In between your toes and everything. In your elbows, everywhere.

1:26:47All over. Lather it up. After that, I use our eye oil, then our eye cream. And then I keep next to the bed is our milky mushroom mask. And I use that as like an overnight sleeping mask. And also I forgot the face oil as well. goes after the moisturizer. So you have a full ritual that you created before you go to bed? Oh yeah. Okay. Are we doing red lights in the room? Is there any other things that you do that are wellness? So I have a cell regulation mat. It's from Health Optimizing. They're a company in Europe and I have this green mat that I lay on my bed for 20 minutes before I go to sleep and it really helps with the ATP production and cellular health.

1:27:36And also, so they have an energizing program and then a sleep program and I do the sleep program. So it really helps with that. And I put the red light Weber laser mat on top of me at the same time. So I'm doing two types of technologies at the same time. I'm sure Evan's so excited. Evan is like, okay, you're done. And I'm like, sometimes I'll try to do it. It's amazing. Like I'll read the books to my kids like in my bed so I get to do it before he gets home. Perfect. But then if I don't get a chance to do that and I'm reading to the kids in their room, then Evan has to endure me doing this 20-minute routine.

1:28:20You know what, you keep it interesting. Yeah, it's not boring. We catch up at that time. It's not boring. but then actually when i put the neurovisor on top of that then he's like you've taken it one step too far then the lights are flashing on my eyes you know it's like going to bed with a transformer yeah it is he's like what and i'm like well you're into tech and he's like yeah it's a different kind of tech that i'm into like can i just ask one more question what's the red light matte it's a matte that goes over oh yeah it's a it's called a weber laser matte weber laser one Yeah, and it has laser technology and red light technology.

1:28:55I also have a Weber laser watch, which you can use on your wrist and a helmet. Love it. Next time you come in, you wear the helmet on the show. That would be fun.
