  • 104. I thought my business launch failed... but God had a bigger plan
    Jun 1 2026

    Eps. 104 In this episode, we get LOUD about faith, entrepreneurship, and what it really means to trust God's plan when everything seems to be going wrong.

    After taking a step back from the podcast, I'm finally back with a life update and the full story behind the launch of my newest nine2five product. What I thought would be a disaster quickly became one of the clearest examples of God working in my life.

    From moving to Montreal and starting a new chapter, to product delays, packaging mistakes, launch setbacks, and unexpected challenges, this journey tested my patience, my mindset, and my faith. Looking back, every obstacle ended up leading to something better than I could have planned on my own.

    In this episode, I share the behind-the-scenes story of building nine2five, the lessons I've learned about letting go of control, and the Bible verses that helped me navigate uncertainty throughout the process.

    If you've ever felt frustrated by closed doors, delayed plans, or seasons where nothing seems to be working out, I hope this conversation reminds you that sometimes the things we see as setbacks are actually preparing us for something greater.

  • 103. I Stopped Hiding My Acne… And Everything Changed! Acne in the beauty industry with Laura Estada
    Mar 9 2026

    Eps. 103 In this episode we get LOUD about acne, confidence, and what it really means to embrace your authentic self in a world that constantly tells you to hide your flaws. I’m joined by Laura, also known online as Acne Baddie Laura, a beauty creator who has built a powerful community by showing her unfiltered skin and redefining what makeup and confidence look like on acne-prone skin.

    Laura shares her journey from using beauty filters and trying to hide her acne online to becoming one of the most recognizable voices in the skin positivity space. We talk about the pressure of beauty standards, the harsh comments people receive on social media, and how choosing to show your real skin can actually become one of the most empowering things you do.

    We also dive into the reality of becoming a full-time content creator — from imposter syndrome and algorithm stress to brand deals, PR, and what it’s really like building a career online.

    If you’ve ever struggled with acne, confidence, or feeling judged for how you look, I hope this conversation reminds you that your worth is not defined by your appearance — and that confidence often starts the moment you stop hiding.

  • 102. Lavinia Answers the Internet's Most Googled Questions
    Mar 2 2026

    Eps. 102 In this episode we get LOUD about feeling lost after big milestones, anxiety in your 20s, and learning to trust God when you don’t fully understand where He’s leading you. After recording 100 episodes, I found myself at a crossroads — questioning my direction, my motivation, and what this podcast is even meant to be in this next season. We also dive into your questions about internal health, GI testing, acne, identity, career shifts, and what it’s actually like self-funding a skincare brand while navigating comparison and pressure in your mid-20s. If you’re in a season of transition, self-doubt, or feeling “behind,” I hope this conversation reminds you that you are not alone — and that clarity often comes after surrender

    🤍 Bible Verses Mentioned:

    Proverbs 20:24 “The Lord directs our steps, so why try to understand everything along the way?”

    Proverbs 3:5 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.”

    Proverbs 24:16 “The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again.”
