My guest on this week’s podcast is the totally awesome Carmindy Bowyer.

Carmindy, who is both single and childfree by choice, was the make-up artist on the US version of ‘What Not To Wear’ for 10 years. The author of four best-selling beauty books, The 5 Minute Face, Get Positively Beautiful, Crazy Busy Beautiful and Bloom, Carmindy now has her very own make-up and beauty brand, Carmindy Beauty.
Carmindy has lived in Los Angeles, Milan, Miami, and currently resides in New York City, where she has established herself as a top makeup artist and beauty expert. Her work can be seen on the editorial pages of leading magazines such as Cosmopolitan, Conde Nast Traveler, Town and Country, InStyle, O, Essence, Marie Claire, Glamour and many more.

Topics that we cover are:

• Carmindy’s childhood in southern California;
• how her parents, although happily married, encouraged her to be independent;
• her inner knowing at a young age that she didn’t want kids, and how she has never regretted not having them;
• the TikTok reel — about being single and childfree by choice — that went viral;
• the projections of negative people who are resistant to happily single women;
• how Carmindy loves her freedom, and why she isn’t interested in a traditional relationship;
• how so many women stay in relationships because they’re scared to be alone;
• why it’s so important to be self aware;
• why we all need to be able to cultivate our own high vibes;
• the chemical hit of romantic love, but how we can all choose to raise our own energy;
• how Carmindy embraces ageing, and how she perceives beauty;
• how she has never cared about what the naysayers think, and why none of us should;
• how she has always used make-up as a tool of empowerment;
• her fabulous beauty brand, Carmindy Beauty, that is designed to elevate our natural state;
• the ‘shit show’ that was her first make-up brand, and the phoenix rising moment that followed her rock bottom;
• why we can’t put a time limit on our dreams;
• Carmindy’s top beauty tips for women in midlife.
