It’s been 13 years since entrepreneur Lauryn Bosstick launched The Skinny Confidential (theskinnyconfidential.com) while studying TV broadcasting at San Diego State University. Since then, the popular wellness- and beauty-focused podcast and blog has garnered more than 159 million downloads, spawned a product line of preventative beauty tools, and led to two bestselling books. Here, the San Diego-bred mogul gives us a peek inside her daily routine with her husband Michael Bosstick, founder and CEO of Dear Media (dearmedia.com), and their two children.
