Episode 23: Calming Your Anxiety with Maurene Goo
"I think self-care gives you control over all the little things that give you anxiety all the time." - Maurene Goo
Kate is back from an anniversary trip to Italy and tells all about her first time face masking on a plane (spoiler alert: it didn't go well). Doree then discusses her current IVF cycle and the challenges of practicing self-care and self-kindness as she goes through the egg retrieval process.
Afterwards, the women welcome back facialist Courtney Chiusano for a quick round of listener questions, in which she tackles pregnancy skincare and finding an eye cream for under-eye circles. You can follow Courtney on Instagram @CourtneyChiusanoSkinCare.
Then, the women speak to Maurene Goo (author of I Believe in a Thing Called Love and The Way You Make Me Feel). She talks about the ups and downs of living abroad, the unexpected joys of hair brushing, and self-care as a way to calm anxiety. Follow her at @MaureneGoo on Instagram and Twitter.

Neutrogena Hydrating Face Mask
According to Kate this is a nice mask, but maybe not the best for inconspicuous plane skincare.
