Ep. 77: Committing to Your Body, a Plant-Based Diet & Natural Skincare Ft Annya Santana
“Your health is your responsibility, it’s really up to you” — Annya Santana explains this truth to me & a sold-out crowd in NYC for this live edition of Naked Beauty
Annya joins me to talk about how we care for our body as part of our beauty routine. Annya is firmly #teamfitness & team #plantbased vegan & I couldn’t be more inspired. We talk about how she started her health journey, how she’s been able to maintain her plant-based diet & how she’s been able to bring her Dominican family along in the process. Listen to hear us discuss:
Running the NY marathon for her Dad (but also low-key all runners hate running lol)
Committing to working out
Buckram (Hot) Yoga as the kick starter
Eating meat & factory farming
Wellness coming to Paris & how French women eat
Reading labels for skincare
How going vegan changed her period, menstrual cramps & skin
Learning to love reading labels for skincare
Gendered Skincare & Clean Beauty
What she eats to stay fulfilled on a plant-based diet
How to curb cravings & self-educate
