Today, I'm joined by the incredible Nadine Artemis, a true pioneer in natural beauty and holistic health. Nadine is well known for bridging the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science, and in this episode, she completely redefines how we look at hair care—not just as a cosmetic routine, but as a form of biological reset. She shares how everything from stress to toxins and even your shower water can disrupt the delicate ecosystem of your scalp, and how her simple, nature-inspired rituals can help restore balance.
