Episode 19: Fatima Fahs, Dermatologist, Skincare Expert & Entrepreneur on Transparency in Social Media & Skincare, The Myth of Balance & Overcoming Stereotypes

Fatima Fahs is a dermatologist, skincare expert, and entrepreneur. She runs the popular instagram account @dermy_doctor and is also the founder of the skincare subscription box Dermy Doc Box.

On this week's episode she gave us all the skincare tips & tricks (as well as what products & procedures are overrated.) We talk about the dangers of over-edited & filtered social media pictures and how that's altering our self-image.

Fatima shared the story of her personal tragedy and how that inspired her to go into medicine. She advocates for transparency both in the world of skincare and social media in general. This was also part of the inspiration for her to start her own skincare subscription box.

As a wife, mom of two, entrepreneur and full-time doctor Fatima is open about the community around her that helps make it all happen, and how complete balance is a myth and why we all need to be more honest about it.

Listen to our latest episode with Fatima to learn more about her journey in medicine, her advice for female entrepreneurs and why transparency is so important.
