Ep. 39: Natural Alternatives to Botox with Holistic Esthetician Elizabeth Carter
Conventional skincare culture tells us to fight aging, fear the sun, and turn to quick fixes like Botox to stay youthful. But are injections the only way? In this episode, holistic esthetician Elizabeth Carter, founder of Honest Rituals, joins Grounded Wellness co-host and holistic esthetician Courtney Goetz to explore the truth about Botox, its risks, and natural alternatives that actually work.
They discuss how intuitive skincare can be a sacred ritual, why facial massage and buccal massage support both emotional release and youthful skin, and how cosmetic acupuncture and natural rituals can offer powerful results without injections. They also share the lessons they had to unlearn after esthetics school.
Together, Elizabeth and Courtney go beyond facials—unpacking motherhood, miscarriage, emotional wellness, Botox alternatives, tallow skincare, and the underestimated emotional power of holistic beauty practices—all while challenging the myths that keep women from experiencing true beauty and wholeness.
Let’s dig in.
