The Sakara Life Podcast · 2025-07-01

Danielle and Whitney sit down with Annie Jackson, the visionary co-founder and CEO of Credo Beauty, to talk about what it really means to shop, live, and create consciously.





Annie shares the story behind Credo’s industry-changing clean standards, why greenwashing remains such a challenge, and how transparency and radical honesty are the future of the beauty industry. They dive deep into the evolving consumer mindset, how education plays a vital role in shifting behavior, and why now is finally the right time to connect nutrition and skincare.





As Sakara’s new Beauty from the Inside Out supplements debut on Credo’s shelves, this conversation explores how ingestibles are reshaping the beauty conversation—from gut health and glow to cellular nourishment and long-term wellness. Whether you’re a beauty lover, wellness junkie, or simply someone seeking better-for-you products, this one is for you.

Why clean beauty is a kindness to your skin, biology, and the planet
