Welcome back to the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., where we believe strength, confidence, and beauty start from within.
Today, we’re diving into clean skincare, self-care, and the courage to build something beautiful out of personal struggle.

Our guest is Sarah Vilenskiy, the powerhouse founder and CEO of Blossom Essentials — a clean skincare brand created for sensitive, condition-prone skin. Sarah turned her lifelong battle with severely dry skin into a thriving, mission-driven business that recently sold out on QVC!
