On today’s episode of The Unbridled Creative, Laura and Trent talk with beauty and wellness pioneer Megan DiMartino, a lifelong entrepreneur whose journey began with childhood “salon” play and grew into 30+ years of innovation in skincare and spa.

Megan shares how she discovered glycolic acid before it was mainstream, launched her first line Glycolique in 1992, and built Novita Spa Clinicals into an award-winning hybrid spa. She opens up about the fences she faced—an unhealthy first marriage, raising two daughters, banks refusing her loans, and navigating a male-dominated industry.

One of the most powerful parts of the conversation is Megan’s shift from religion to relationship—giving her life to Jesus in 1992 and learning to follow the Holy Spirit in every business and personal decision. That faith has guided every pivot, including selling her spa during the 2020 shutdown and launching her next chapter in regenerative wellness and mentorship.

You’ll also hear about The Propel Program, her 5 Cs framework, her TED Talk, and why she believes it’s never too early and never too late to build the life God designed for you.

In this episode:
• How her family shaped her entrepreneurial wiring
• Her early innovations in skincare and spa models
• The “fences” she had to break free from
• How God led her to Texas and changed her life
• The steps behind selling her spa and embracing regenerative wellness
• Why she talks with the Holy Spirit all day long

Break Free Blueprint (Today’s Takeaway)

Use this as your reflection + action step after listening.

Remember your “over-the-horizon” story.

Think back to childhood or early adulthood. Where do you see the seed of your calling already present—before you had language for it? Write down one memory where your God-given wiring was obvious.

Name the fence you’ve built for safety.

Ask yourself: “What ‘safe’ situation, story, or label am I hiding behind right now?” It could be a job, a relationship, a belief about your age, or a story about not being “ready.” Name it honestly.

Ask Holy Spirit for your next faithful step—and take it.

Pray Proverbs 3:5–6 and simply ask: “Lord, what’s the next small step toward the life You’re inviting me into?” Maybe it’s scheduling a conversation, exploring a new idea, or finally saying no to something that no longer fits. Write it down and do it in the next 24–48 hours.

Be bold. Break free. Live unbridled.
