In this episode, I sit down with Jiajia, the founder of Matter of Monday, to talk about the stress-skin connection, how blue light might be affecting your skin (yes—really!), and why barrier repair is the next big thing in skincare.
Jiajia shares her founder journey, the four essential products she developed to simplify skincare, and how modern stressors like tech overload are changing how we care for our skin. We also get into her own rituals, including an infrared sauna habit and the product she never skips.
In this episode, we cover:
The inspiration behind the brand name Matter of Monday
Why Jiajia focused on just four SKUs—and what they do
The importance of proactive barrier repair in modern skincare
How Jiajia protects her skin daily (and re-applies!)
Her favorite self-care rituals including nature walks and infrared sauna
The one skincare product she can’t live without
Quick-fire questions about confidence, mindset, and routines

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
