Real talks. Real advice. Real change.

LIVELY is an empowering lingerie brand, or Leisurée as they call it, that was founded by an even more inspiring woman. 

This week I had the pleasure of talking with Michelle Cordeiro Grant, founder, and CEO of LIVELY, about the company and her work empowering women. 

Michelle spent the tenure of her career creating brands and products for some of the world's largest retailers including Federated, VF Corporation, Limited Brands/ Victoria's Secret and Thrillist Media Group. While working with Victoria'sSecret, she learned that this $13B lingerie category, in the US alone, was dominated by this one brand, with one point of view. Grant was inspired to create a completely new experience for the category,—one she coined Leisurée—and so LIVELY was born

On this episode, we discussed:

  • Fears of getting into a new vertical of a well-established industry

  • How important a community is

  • Empowering women to feel sexy about more than just their looks

  • The first steps to take for starting your own business

This week we're discussing how plants can be used as medicine, the ins and out of the new world of naturopathic doctors, and how doctors should work to be educators.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Tyler Jean on this week's episode. Tyler is an aspiring Naturopathic Doctor, who attends the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon. His journey in medicine began in college when he fell in love with food.

We discuss:

  • How a Naturopathic Doctor differs from a Medical Doctor

  • The idea of doctors being educators

  • Treating the body as a whole system

  • Preventative vs. disease care

  • Simple tips that you can apply to your life today


Tyler had always been a firm believer in educating others about their health. He believes that practitioners have the unique opportunity to be a teacher and a mentor that encourages others to take self-responsibility for their health and empower their patients and the general public with the knowledge necessary for living a healthy, happy, and sustainable lifestyle.
