The podcast episode, hosted by Carrie Scharf for "Plants, Flowers, Oils, and Whimsy", discusses the skin changes occurring due to perimenopause - the period before menopause. Covering a range of issues such as dryness, increased sensitivity, loss of elasticity, acne, hyperpigmentation, and a slower healing process, she brings attention to the essential skin care needed during this time.

The Gentle Exhale: Self-Care for Sensitive Givers
Hi, I’m Carrie!
This a soft place to land for highly sensitive women and special needs moms who are carrying a lot.
Inside, you’ll find reflections rooted in Scripture, simple sensory rituals, soothing scent notes, and small moments of play and rest. Nothing here is about fixing yourself or doing self-care “right.” It’s about meeting God in the ordinary moments—right where you are—especially on the days that feel heavy or overwhelming.
Episodes are calm, low-pressure, and designed to be listened to in short pockets of time: during a quiet morning moment, a late-night wind-down, or a few minutes alone in the car.
If you are sensitive, caregiving, faith-filled, and tired in a way that sleep doesn’t fix, this space is for you.
Let’s make self-care feel doable (and a little magical).
