In this radiant episode of The Healthy Pod, Nicole sits down with longtime friend, wellness founder, and marketing powerhouse Mangala Rao D’sa—the creator of Chāsma Skin, a luxe Ayurvedic skincare brand blending ancient rituals with modern science.

With 20 years of experience building iconic brands like PepsiCo, Roots, and Indigo, Mangala made a bold pivot from corporate life to holistic entrepreneurship. Now, she’s redefining skincare through the lens of Ayurveda—creating glow-boosting rituals that bring balance, beauty, and calm to your everyday routine.

Together, Nicole and Mangala dive into:
        •        What Ayurveda actually is—and how it can transform your skin
        •        The real difference between Ayurvedic and clean beauty
        •        Mangala’s exact morning and evening skincare rituals
        •        How to glow with intention (even if you only have 3 minutes a day!)
        •        Her transition from CPG exec to purpose-driven founder
        •        A fun round of Glow-Up or Gimmick? featuring face yoga, moon water & more
        •        The product she recommends to every single customer

This conversation is equal parts soulful, science-backed, and skin-obsessed.
