I cannot believe I'm here, but thank you so much for having me.

And I apply it.

The biggest thing that's going to change when you take to heart everything we're going to talk about here today is not just the knowledge in your skin or gaining a little bit more confidence in taking care of your skin, but the emotional impact it's going to have on your overall confidence moving forward.

Because aging, 20% of it is genetics.

If it was all purely genetics, habits wouldn't matter.

And so 80% of how we age and show up in the world has to do with habits.

And so if we can create the system so we can show up for ourselves every single day, but also have the confidence and our knowledge to, we can transform from an inside out perspective and really blossom into the butterflies that we are.

So 80% has to do with cumulative sun exposure.

Are we living a rockstar lifestyle?

Are we consuming alcohol to no end?

Are we not focusing on the overall aspects of our lifestyle and diet?

Are we actually washing our faces?

Are we using the things?

And that I think is a reflection of everything else.

When all of it comes together, your skincare is that reflection of how you view yourself and how you take care of yourself overall.

So to be able to put a little bit of emphasis, a little change every single day will amount to bigger changes in the long run.

And I think the most dramatic one is truly how you feel about yourself.

And that's why I went into dermatology.

I never liked convincing people that they had a problem.

And so because they could see their problem, they're already more motivated to help themselves.
