In today's episode, I am behind the mic and my best friend of 17 years Brianna interviews me on my journey from quitting my career as a forensic scientist to now owner and my skincare company Silkenn. 

I open up about my long journey from burnout to “balance” while navigating the demands of hustle culture as a high-achieving boss babe running a team of people while handling a 9 to 5.
