Skincare company CEO spills secrets!

Skincare company CEO spills secrets!

Author: Katie Grimes October 1, 2025 Duration: 57:03

Everyone loves a good skincare product, but few people talk about the real work that goes into building a beauty brand from scratch.

In this honest and inspiring conversation, I sit down with Tina Sanders, founder of Farm Sea Skincare and coaching client, to talk about what it actually takes to grow an all natural, non-toxic skincare company - the highs, the heartbreaks, and everything in between.

Tina shares the behind-the-scenes truth about running her own business, the mindset shifts that kept her going when things got tough, and how she built a brand rooted in her beliefs that everyone should safely put products on their skin and know what's in them and the benefits they have.

We cover:

  • What most people don't see about starting and scaling a skincare business.

  • How Tina turned her passion for skincare into a powerful brand — and the lessons she learned along the way.

  • The tough seasons of entrepreneurship and how she pushed through them.

  • The mindset it takes to keep going when success feels far away.

  • What's next for Tina and how she's redefining beauty in business and beyond.

If you're an entrepreneur (or dreaming of becoming one), this conversation will remind you that the tough moments are part of the process — and that with persistence and purpose, you can build something beautiful (inside and out).

Hosted by Katie Grimes, Anything for Love is a conversation about the messy intersection of professional ambition and personal well-being. It’s born from the realization that the early days of building something from nothing are often riddled with unnecessary strain. This podcast serves as a practical companion for anyone navigating that journey, focusing on the foundational habits and mindset shifts that make sustainable growth possible. You’ll hear discussions that move beyond pure business strategy to include the physical and mental frameworks required to support it. Episodes tackle the real obstacles: from dismantling disorganization and breaking cycles of counterproductive habits to rebuilding a sense of clarity and self-assurance. The aim is to explore actionable steps for creating better daily routines, improving how you communicate your vision, and finding a steadier confidence even when circumstances feel chaotic. It’s about aligning your work with a life you genuinely enjoy, recognizing that success isn't just measured in metrics but in a feeling of purposeful alignment. Tune in for honest reflections and straightforward advice that bridges the gap between entrepreneurial drive and holistic health.
