Today we welcome Courtney Howell, co-founder of 7 Fathoms Seaweed Skincare from Newfoundland, Canada. Courtney shares the inspiring story behind her sustainable, clean skincare brand and how a simple walk on the beach led to a breakthrough in natural healing. Discover how Courtney's husband Terrence’s experience with Crohn’s disease and contact dermatitis sparked their journey into the power of local seaweed.
Courtney explains the science behind seaweed’s healing properties, including the bioactive compound fucoidan, known for its ability to repair and hydrate skin. We explore the couple’s adventure from teaching in South Korea to building a life and business in Grates Cove, Newfoundland, blending passion, intuition, and the wisdom of nature.
WO50 co-host Eddi Kenny, now part of the 7 Fathoms team, discusses product development and the mission to bring clean, effective skincare to women over 50 and beyond. Tune in for an uplifting conversation about resilience, wellness, and the gifts the sea can offer us all.
