Shani Hillian’s holistic skincare journey began in her grandmother’s garden, where fresh-cut aloe was the go-to balm for skin issues. Now, with over 17 years of experience as an esthetician, she leverages her roots in holistic skincare to create rituals that restore balance for herself and her clients. Shani shared her experience of transitioning from hair styling to skincare, influenced by her modeling career, and discussed the importance of simple, effective skincare routines. Our conversation also covered Shani’s experience with pregnancy-related hair loss and her tips for skin-friendly nutrition, emphasizing balance rather than strict restrictions. And I couldn’t let Shani leave without getting all her expert skincare tips. She explained the benefits of oil cleansers, how to find non-comedogenic oils, and the philosophy behind her minimalist approach to skincare. She also discussed the impact of lifestyle habits, such as exercise and nutrition, on skin health. This episode highlights the importance of understanding individual skin types and the value of holistic, well-balanced beauty routines.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
