Aging Beautifully, Trusting Your Gut, and Building a Business with Heart — with Cathi Carrier

I want to hear your thoughts about the show and this episode. Text us here...

What if aging wasn’t something to fight, but something to honor?
 In this heartfelt and deeply inspiring conversation, Julie DeLucca-Collins sits down with entrepreneur and skincare founder Cathi Carrier to talk about confidence, reinvention, trusting yourself, and building a business aligned with your values.

Cathi’s journey began as a young girl struggling with acne and self-confidence. That challenge sparked a lifelong passion for skincare, eventually leading her to build an award-winning spa, Bella Estetica, and later launch Purely Bella, a clean skincare brand created specifically for women over forty. Along the way, she navigated single motherhood, financial hustle, entrepreneurship, self-doubt, faith, and the courage to start again from scratch.

This episode is about so much more than skincare. It is about listening to your instincts, letting go of other people’s opinions, creating alignment in your business, embracing aging with grace, and choosing brave moves over perfect ones.

If you’ve ever felt pulled toward a new chapter but wondered if you’re too late, too old, or too unsure, this conversation will meet you right where you are.
