  • Unveiled Radiance™ Podcast Trailer | The Science of Aging Without Fear
    Jan 22 2026

    Unveiled Radiance™ is a science-forward podcast for women who want honest, evidence-based conversations about aging, skin, hormones, stress, and aesthetic medicine — without fear-driven beauty culture.


    Hosted by physician and aesthetic medicine expert Dr. Natalya Borakowski, the show explores how biology, psychology, and cultural pressure shape how women age and see themselves.


    This is not anti-aging.

    It’s anti-confusion.


    Each episode examines:

    • Skin aging and hormonal change

    • Burnout, nervous system load, and appearance

    • Aesthetic medicine myths vs. medical reality

    • How women can make empowered, self-directed choices about care


    Unveiled Radiance is for women who want clarity, not correction — and self-trust, not shame.


    New episodes weekly.

  • 11. How the Beauty Industry Changed — and What Women Lost Along the Way
    Jan 22 2026

    From 1980s European Facials to 2025 High-Tech Devices — the beauty industry didn’t change overnight, but women felt the shift.In this episode of Unveiled Radiance, Dr. Natalya Borakowski sits down with Shelley Hancock, esthetician educator and industry veteran, to explore how beauty care quietly transformed from a relationship-based practice into correction-driven performance. We dive deep into what this shift — from steamers to lasers — has cost women emotionally and physically.This is not an anti-technology or anti-progress conversation. It’s a grounded examination of what was lost as speed, perfection, and urgency replaced presence, touch, and trust. We also address modern concerns like "Cortisol Face", the risks of Damaged Skin Barrier from aggressive treatments, and the truth about At-Home Beauty Devices.In this episode, we discuss:Industry Evolution: How the aesthetic industry evolved from simple manual facials to high-tech machines over the last 30+ years.Care vs. Correction: The impact of Groupon culture and why Microdermabrasion became the tipping point for "fast beauty."Stress & Aging: The emotional impact of modern aesthetic pressure and the science behind why "Cortisol Eats Your Collagen."Myths Debunked: Anti-aging myths, fear-based beauty messaging, and the dangers of home laser hair removal.The Future of Aesthetics: What ethical, confidence-preserving care and healthy aging can still look like today.This conversation is for women who feel overwhelmed by beauty advice, conflicted about aging, or disconnected from their reflection — and for practitioners questioning where the industry is headed.🔗 Links & Resources:Shelley Hancock’s Website: https://www.shelleyhancock.com/Instagram: @shelley.hancockUnveilYou: http://unveilyou.life/Hashtags: #SkincareOver40 #AestheticIndustry #CortisolFace #HealthyAging #EstheticianLife #DamagedSkinBarrier #Microdermabrasion #BeautyMyths #UnveiledRadiance🎙️ New episodes weekly.Subscribe to Unveiled Radiance for evidence-based conversations on aging, aesthetics, and self-trust.

  • 10. Behind the Needle: The Human Cost of the Beauty Industry’s Perfection Chase
    Nov 10 2025

    This isn’t a fear episode, it’s an honesty episode. Dr. Natalya Borakowski sits down with her dear friend Hanna Volkodav, an Arizona aesthetic injector, to talk candidly about filler, complications, and the moment you realize your worth can’t live in the mirror.

    Hanna is a woman once celebrated for her precision and artistry, now standing at the edge of a personal and professional reckoning.

    Together, they explore what happens when beauty becomes performance, when medicine blurs into marketing, and when the quiet voice of intuition finally says, “enough.”

    Hannah opens up about her journey from confidence to crisis — from mastering the art of filler and Botox to questioning the very ideals she once helped create. Through her story, we’re invited to look deeper: beyond the flawless faces and filtered feeds, into the heart of a system that often forgets the human underneath.

    This episode isn’t about blame or fear — it’s about awakening. About finding grace, integrity, and compassion in a field that desperately needs all three.

    Because beauty should never cost your peace.

  • 7. Seeing Not Filtered. Makeup as a Mirror not a Mask with Stephanie G-M
    Oct 21 2025

    Makeup can be the quickest confidence boost—but only if it works with your skin. In this episode of Unveiled Radiance, Dr. Natalia sits down with makeup artist Stephanie to talk about how beauty routines evolve as we age.

    Stephanie shares how to simplify your routine with multi-use products, why creams often beat powders for mature skin, and how small shifts in placement—like higher blush and softer contour—can instantly lift the face. You’ll also hear her myth-busting takes on social media trends, practical color theory tips, and the one rule she wants every woman over 40 to remember: less is more.

    If you’re ready to rethink your makeup bag and feel radiant at any age, this episode is for you.


    In this episode:

    • Why hydration, gentle exfoliation, and barrier support are the #1 reason makeup looks good on mature skin.
    • Creams > powders: How textures change with age (less oil, less collagen) and why cream formulas lift and blur instead of settling.
    • Placement that lifts the face naturally: Higher blush, light in the center of the face, soft, buildable contour—no harsh lines.
    • How to layer makeup strategically so skin still looks like skin.
    • Color theory made simple: Read your natural lip/cheek tones and eye undertones to pick flattering shades (cool vs. warm, neutrals that enhance).
    • How Stephanie now helps founders translate their inner shine into websites that actually convert.

  • 6. Seasons of Self: How Hormonal Shifts Shape What You See with Dr. Sarah Cummins
    Oct 12 2025

    If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and felt like a different person week to week, you’re not imagining it, it's your hormones.

    In this episode we sit down with Dr. Sarah Cummins, who is a health psychology researcher and educator. After earning her Ph.D., she founded her company, Brightness Positive Health Development, where she encourages, educates, and empowers people with self-care strategies to self-manage health challenges. Her focus is on endocrine health conditions, such as endometriosis and PCOS. She’s passionate about validating people’s health experiences through empathy and authenticity.

    In this episode, Dr. Sarah Cummins reveals how hormonal shifts — from daily fluctuations to life transitions — can change not only how we feel, but how we see ourselves in the mirror. Together, we explore the psychology of hormones, self-perception, and how to meet these shifts with awareness and compassion.
