S5 E10 Let's Talk Ladies: Raising confident girls in the age of anti-aging with Saint Crewe founder Erin Piper

Why are teenage girls shopping for anti-aging skincare products? And why are some women in their 20s considering cosmetic procedures once reserved for much older people? In this thought-provoking episode of Let's Talk Ladies: Conversations Across Generations, host M.B. Roberts sits down with entrepreneur and skincare founder Erin Piper to explore the growing pressure young women face to look perfect—and stay young forever. As the founder of Saint Crewe, Erin is passionate about creating safe, age-appropriate skincare products for girls while challenging the messages that tell them their worth is tied to their appearance. She shares her concerns about social media, beauty marketing, and the rise of "preventative" anti-aging products aimed at increasingly younger consumers. Together, Erin and M.B. discuss: • Why anti-aging messaging is reaching girls at younger ages than ever before• The influence of social media, influencers, and beauty culture on self-image• The growing trend of cosmetic procedures among women in their 20s• How parents can help girls develop healthy skincare habits without fear-based marketing• Why confidence, character, and self-worth matter far more than flawless skin• The mission behind Saint Crewe and creating products designed specifically for young skin This episode is an important conversation for mothers, daughters, and anyone concerned about the messages young women receive about beauty and aging. Because every girl deserves to know that who she is matters more than how she looks.

S5 E9 Let's Talk Ladies: Pro-aging with Caire Beauty co-founder Lorrie King

What if aging isn't a problem to solve? In this episode of Let's Talk Ladies, host M.B. Roberts sits down with beauty industry veteran Lorrie King, co-founder of Caire Beauty, to challenge everything we've been taught about getting older. After decades working with some of the biggest names in beauty—including Elizabeth Taylor and Halle Berry—Lorrie saw a glaring gap in the skincare industry: products designed specifically for women navigating hormonal changes after 40. That realization led her to co-create Caire Beauty, a skincare brand built around the idea of being pro-aging, not anti-aging. Lorrie shares why she believes the term "anti-aging" sends the wrong message to women, how skin changes during perimenopause and menopause, and why the products that worked in your 20s and 30s may no longer be enough. She also offers practical advice on what women should look for in skincare as they age and why embracing the aging process can be empowering. * Why Lorrie King co-founded Caire Beauty after decades in the cosmetics industry * Working with iconic women like Elizabeth Taylor, J.Lo, and Halle Berry * What's wrong with the term "anti-aging"? * How hormones affect skin health after 40 * Why women need different skincare products in midlife and beyond * The biggest misconceptions about aging and beauty * How to build a skincare routine that supports—not fights—aging * Why confidence is the ultimate beauty secret Whether you're 40, 50, 60, or beyond, this conversation is a refreshing reminder that aging isn't something to fear—it's something to embrace.

S5 E8 Let's Talk Ladies: Self-care isn’t selfish with massage therapist Diana Jones

Self-care isn’t selfish — it’s survival. On this episode of Let’s Talk Ladies: Conversations Across Generations, we sit down with Nashville massage therapist Diana Jones to talk about why women are finally beginning to prioritize their physical and mental well-being — and whether younger generations are actually better at it than the women who came before them. Diana shares why massage therapy should be viewed as an essential part of healthcare rather than an occasional luxury, and how chronic stress, burnout, and “doing it all” continue to affect women of all ages. We also discuss what self-care really means beyond bubble baths and spa days, how women can better advocate for themselves in medical and wellness settings, and why customer care and compassion matter more than ever. From setting boundaries to listening to your body, this conversation is a reminder that caring for yourself is not indulgent — it’s necessary.
