The Journey of the Skin Savant: Amy Peterson on Beauty Inside and Out

In this episode of From The Inside Out with Rivkah & Eda, we sit down with Amy Peterson, dubbed the 'Skin Savant,' to discuss her incredible journey in the world of skincare. From her early days in a small office to launching a successful practice and skincare line, Amy shares insights on her passion for skincare, spurred by her own personal experience with severe scarring from a traumatic accident. We explore the balance between embracing aging and using modern skincare technologies artfully, the importance of intention and trust in aesthetic treatments, and the power of investing in oneself. Despite the superficial nature of the industry, Amy emphasizes a holistic approach to beauty, valuing both internal and external wellbeing. She also shares her thoughts on how to avoid the pitfalls of overdoing aesthetic treatments and stresses the significance of authenticity and client care in her practice.
