My dear friend Gillian (“Gilly”) Stollwerk Garrett joins me on the podcast this week. If you want to hear that you’re not alone as a parent, or a self-employed person, going crazy during this pandemic, tune into this episode. Gilly and I talk about how we’re juggling being busy with not feeing productive, raising kids during COVID-19, gratitude, body positivity, and what led Gilly to create her skin care line, Gilly’s Organics.
Key Quotes from the Episode:
“Part of my brand is trying to educate. You can have nice, healing, beautiful, effective products without the chemicals.”
“Scars, breast cancer, talking about things that seem taboo and might make them uncomfortable is the only way to get people’s attention and to tell the truth.”
“Presence over perfection. What I have to say and what I have to teach is so much more important than the number on my jeans.”
“I’m owning every little spot on my body, whether it’s quarantine weight or not.”
Gillian Stollwerk Garrett (aka “Gilly”) is a multi-passionate entrepreneur. A writer, dreamer, inspirer, “mixologist,” and wellness advocate, you can find this mother of 3 whipping up batches of sugar scrub (and other splendid goodies for her line of products), or taking care of herself and her family. Gilly insists we take some time every day to recharge. You can find her indulgent, healing, organic and vegan skincare products at www.gillysorganics.com or at your local (NY/NJ) Whole Foods. While she is proud of her budding business, she defines success by how much fun her family and her company are having each day, and if she is living and loving in the present moment!
