Hi friends!
I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today we are talking all things skin! 🌟
I’m sitting down with Dr. Mamina Turegano, a triple board certified dermatologist, internist, and dermapathologist based in New Orleans. In this episode, she’s sharing a really refreshing, integrative take on skin health, the kind you don’t usually get at a regular derm appointment. We get into the topics that are all over social media lately, like whether sunscreen is actually safe, the real deal with Botox, and what habits genuinely make a difference for your skin long term.
Here’s what we chat about:
- The real story behind the sunscreen-causes-cancer claim and what the benzene contamination scare actually was
- Why correlation is not causation when it comes to sunscreen use and skin cancer rates
- The truth about chemical vs. mineral sunscreen and what the FDA actually says
- A dive into Botox and all about the safety data, the reported adverse reactions, and the emerging research on brain health
- Why skincare advancements (hello, peptides) are changing what we actually need procedures for
- The non-negotiable basics every skin routine should include
- What lifestyle factors are aging your skin faster than you think
- The connection between sleep, stress, and skin conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, and hair loss
And so much more!
It was awesome getting to talk to Dr. Mamina and I hope you like listening to it as much as I enjoyed chatting with her! If you’ve ever left a derm appointment with more questions than answers, this episode is for YOU ❤️

You can absolutely join if you don’t currently work in the health or fitness industry; many IHPs don’t begin on this path.
