Welcome back to Her Truth Revealed!
In this episode, we sit down with the trailblazing Carin Luna-Ostaseski, the founder of SIA Scotch Whisky and a passionate advocate for women embracing every chapter of life with courage and authenticity.
Carin shares her remarkable journey as one of the first Hispanic women to create a Scotch whisky brand and how breaking into a male-dominated industry taught her the power of resilience, self-belief, and doing things on her own terms. From navigating career pivots to redefining identity in midlife, Carin opens up about the importance of trusting yourself and embracing change without the need to prove your worth to others.
We dive into the realities of midlife transitions—from hormonal shifts to cultural stigmas—and discuss how women can better support one another through these seasons. Carin emphasizes the importance of having access to resources and creating spaces where women can share their experiences openly without judgment or shame. She also highlights practical tools, like discreet wellness products, that empower women to manage midlife with confidence and ease.
When asked what advice she'd give to her 25-year-old self, Carin offers a profound reminder: "You don’t have to prove yourself to anyone. You are enough exactly as you are." Her message resonates deeply for anyone who has struggled with people-pleasing or the pressure to meet external expectations.
If you've ever felt the tension between who you are and who the world expects you to be, this conversation will inspire you to embrace your authenticity, celebrate your journey, and redefine success on your own terms.
So, grab a cup of coffee (or maybe a glass of whisky), settle in, and join us for a powerful discussion about owning your story and stepping boldly into your next chapter.

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.
