On today’s episode, we welcome Dr. Heather Rogers, double board-certified dermatologist, Founder of Doctor Rogers Skincare, and Co-Founder of Modern Dermatology — a trusted voice of reason in a skincare world overloaded with trends, hype, and too many products.
After years of seeing hundreds of patients each week, Dr. Rogers noticed a pattern: people were overdoing it. Damaged skin barriers. Irritation. Reactive skin. Confusing routines. Products promising results but often creating more problems. That frustration led her to build Doctor Rogers Skincare, a streamlined, fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested line focused on fewer products, scientifically grounded ingredients, and formulas designed to support healing, calm inflammation, and strengthen the skin barrier.
In this episode, Dr. Rogers breaks down what actually matters in skincare — and what does not. We talk about barrier-first skincare, why sensitive skin is so often misunderstood, the biggest myths and overhyped trends in the industry, and how consumers should think about terms like “clean,” “clinical,” and “medical-grade.” She also shares what it’s like to build a consumer brand as a practicing dermatologist, what she refused to compromise on, and why simplifying your routine may be one of the best things you can do for your skin.
This is a must listen.

On today’s episode, we welcome Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics, the company behind Fatty15. Stephanie is a veterinary epidemiologist, author of The Longevity Nutrient, and one of the world’s leading experts on C15:0 — the first essential fatty acid discovered in over 90 years.
Stephanie’s story starts in an unexpected place: studying aging Navy dolphins. While working to improve their long-term health, she and her team discovered C15:0, a fatty acid that may play a critical role in strengthening cells and supporting healthy aging. That discovery led to years of research, more than 100 peer-reviewed studies, dozens of patents, and ultimately Fatty15 — a science-backed supplement designed to support cellular health, longevity, and overall wellness.
In this episode, Stephanie shares how a breakthrough in dolphin health became a human health innovation, why she believes we have misunderstood certain saturated fats for decades, and what consumers should know about C15:0, cellular fragility, and healthy aging. We also talk about building trust in the crowded wellness space, turning serious science into a consumer brand, and why some of the biggest discoveries come from questioning what everyone assumes is true.

What if waking up in pain wasn’t something you had to accept?
On today’s episode, we welcome Evita Kunke, Co-Founder of Honeydew Sleep — a company rethinking how we sleep, starting with the pillow. After struggling with a debilitating back condition and being told surgery might be her only option, Evita discovered that the right sleep setup could completely change her health — and her life.
What started as a personal solution turned into a business. With deep roots in the sleep industry and access to dozens of existing products, Evita and her husband realized the market wasn’t solving the problem — so they built their own. Today, Honeydew Sleep is known for its handcrafted, science-backed pillows designed for proper alignment, cooling, and real comfort.
In this episode, Evita shares her journey from personal struggle to founder, what’s broken in the sleep industry, and how small changes in your sleep setup can have a massive impact on your overall health and quality of life.
If you’re interested in building a mission-driven brand, solving a real problem, or simply sleeping better — this one’s for you. Tune in now on The Kara Goldin Show.
