Our obsession with keeping up appearances is nothing new, but we're officially in a "compare and despair" era now. Humanity's fixation on the beauty industry, which is estimated to be worth $800 billion by 2025, has brought us to a point where aesthetic standards have the power to completely shape our inner worth. If our emotional, mental and spiritual well-being suffocates for the sake of maintaining a glamorous facade, what's the real cost? It's time to go beneath the surface — and we don't mean botox (but we're pro-botox, too). We're transcending the shallow definition of beauty and exploring the interconnectedness of inner and outer radiance.

Co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt embark on a captivating conversation with Mikaela MacLean, an Auric Aesthetician and founder of Energetic Aesthetics & Beauty Sleep Reiki. Mikaela focused on physical healing for 20+ years as a medical aesthetician, and now she's working with spiritual healing modalities, bringing her energetic gifts and wisdom the material world. She's become a powerful voice in the realm of holistic beauty and opens up in this episode about the delicate balance between materiality and spirituality. This episode aims to help you redefine beauty as an energetic expression of the soul, one that goes beyond our conditioning, capitalistic pressures, and social media expectations.

The liberating truth is that beauty isn't merely a superficial concept. It isn't found in the aisles of a department store, or sitting in a salon chair, or hiding under a surgeon's scalpel. It resides within you, ready to be expressed so you can project yourself out into the world as the purest, most badass version of yourself.

Mikaela MacLean is the founder and creator of Energetic Aesthetics & Beauty Sleep Reiki, as well as the host of the podcast, BEAUTY BY DESIGN. Following her extensive background as a medical aesthetician, Mikaela now artfully blends an unconventional mélange of healing modalities including Aesthetics, Human Design, Astrology, Yoga Nidra, meditation, Reiki and more. As an educator, she brings her unique synthesis of these methods to the Aesthetics community, helping them elevate their careers by moving beyond the status quo for the greatest benefit of their patients & clients.
