The Cinnamon Effect - Inspiring Health-Focused Women to Live Life With Purpose

How much of what surrounds you truly reflects who you are? In a world of fast fashion, endless choices, and constant consumption, Found PB, a women-owned business was built around a different idea: surrounding yourself with things that carry meaning, support artisan craftsmanship, and inspire a more intentional living.In this episode, I’m joined by sisters Andrea Pertnoy and Marisa Pepper, the founders of Found in Palm Beach, Florida.I’ve known Andrea and Marisa since we were little girls in dance class, so this conversation is extra special. We talk about how their very different paths, from fashion and retail to yoga, motherhood, handmade pottery, travel, and wellness, eventually came together in the most beautiful way through their business.Found is a reflection of how they live, what they value, and the kind of energy they want to bring into people’s homes and closets.In this episode, you’ll learn:- How Andrea and Marisa went from childhood dancers to building a business together as sisters- What inspired them to create Found Palm Beach and why the store is rooted in intention, sustainability, and storytelling- Why they believe the things we wear and live with should have meaning, not just look pretty- How they source handmade home decor from artisans around the world- What it really looks like to build relationships with makers, not just buy products from them- Why natural fabrics, slow fashion, and thoughtful consumption matter more than everWhether you're curious about sustainable fashion, building a purpose-driven business, navigating life's unexpected transitions, or simply creating a home that feels more like you, I think you'll find something meaningful in this conversation. I hope it leaves you inspired to slow down, be more intentional, and think differently about the things, and experiences, you choose to bring into your life.Hit play and let's grow together, KimberlyConnect with Found PB:Website: https://foundpb.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/found.pb/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/foundpb-61577041210561/Connect with Kimberly Hand:Website: https://www.kimberlyhand.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimberlyhand_Shop The Cinnamon Effect Journal here: https://thecinnamoneffect.com/journalCleaner basics for the part of your wardrobe that touches you all day.

Grief has a way of changing everything. It can shift how we see time, relationships, faith, healing, and even ourselves. And while grief is one of the most universal human experiences, it is also one of the hardest things to talk about honestly.In this episode, I’m joined by Marie Crews, a certified grief guide and life coach, for a heartfelt conversation about grief, grief support, and healing after losing a loved one. Marie shares part of her story of losing both her mother and her son in a short period of time, and how those losses reshaped the way she sees life, love, spirituality, and purpose.Together, we talk about coping with grief, what life after loss can really look like, and why grief healing does not mean pretending the pain is gone. Marie also shares how journaling for healing became a powerful part of her own journey, and how she now uses that work to support other women, especially mothers walking through child loss and deep emotional healing.In this episode, you’ll learn:- Why grief is not something we simply “get over”- How losing a parent or losing a loved one can change the way we see life- Why mother grief and child loss carry layers that are hard to put into words- What coping with grief can look like when the pain still feels fresh- How spirituality can bring comfort, meaning, and hope in the midst of grief- Why journaling for healing can help you process emotions more honestly- How to help someone grieving without feeling like you need to have all the right answers- Why memories, signs, and connection can bring comfort after loss- How pain, peace, and purpose can coexist as part of grief healingThis episode is for anyone who has experienced grief, loves someone who is grieving, or wants to better understand how to hold space for life’s hardest moments.My hope is that this conversation reminds you that even when life looks completely different than you imagined, you are not alone and healing is still possible.Hit play and let's grow together,KimberlyConnect with me:Website: https://www.kimberlyhand.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimberlyhand_Better sleep, faster recovery, real relaxation, all from home.

I never thought a hunting trip would teach me so much about my marriage.After 22 years with my husband, I finally joined him on a real trip hunting in Patagonia. I went in unsure, a little nervous, and very much stepping outside my comfort zone.

It became a lesson in marriage, personal growth, and supporting your partner in something they truly love.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why I finally said yes to going on a hunting trip with my husbandWhat it was really like staying at a hunting and fly-fishing lodge in PatagoniaHow being in nature shifted something in meWhat I noticed when I saw my husband fully in his elementWhy trying something new with your partner can change the way you see themHow stepping outside your comfort zone can strengthen your relationshipWhat this trip taught me about masculine energy and feminine energyWhy unfamiliar experiences can become a powerful doorway to personal growthThis episode is for anyone who has ever resisted their partner’s hobbies, felt stuck in routine, or needed a reminder that growth often starts with trying something new and supporting your partner with an open heart.Hit play and let's grow together.Connect with me:Website: https://www.kimberlyhand.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimberlyhand_Shop The Cinnamon Effect Journal here: https://thecinnamoneffect.com/journalNADS organic underwear for menhttps://bit.ly/4ogwtBcUse code: TCEPODCASTThe Cinnamon Effect is recorded at PodPlus Studios (@PodPlusStudios ) in Jupiter, Florida, and produced by Hype Boss ( @hype-boss-hype-boss )For more information, visit https://www.podplusstudios.com.

Turning 46 felt different. Not because of the number, but because of what the year before it quietly handed me - six raw, honest, life-changing lessons that I'm still sitting with.In this episode, I'm opening up about the most transformative insights from my 45th year - the kind that don't come from a book or a course, but from actually living. If you've ever felt stuck, scared, or like you're spinning your wheels without actually moving forward, this one is for you.Here's what we're unpacking:🔓 The cage door isn't locked - The thing holding you back might not be a barrier at all. I'll share how I realized I had more freedom than I ever gave myself credit for - and why we stay in cages we could walk out of any time.✅ Do it anyway - Waiting to feel ready is the longest wait of your life. This year taught me that action doesn't require permission from your feelings.🧠 Overthinking is just fear dressed up as productivity - If you've ever spent hours "researching" instead of doing, this will hit home. I break down how I finally caught myself in this pattern and what I did to interrupt it.💪 Courage comes first, confidence comes later - We have it backwards. Confidence isn't what gives you courage - it's what follows it. This mindset shift changed everything about how I approach new challenges.🌱 You can expand without starting over - Growth doesn't have to mean burning it all down. I talk about how I learned to build on what already exists rather than constantly chasing a clean slate.🏡 Your environment is either supporting you or draining you - There's no neutral. From the people around you to the physical spaces you inhabit, I share how auditing my environment became one of the most powerful things I did this year.Whether you're approaching a milestone birthday, navigating a major life transition, or simply craving a more intentional life, these lessons are ones I wish someone had handed me years ago.Hit play - and let's grow together.To connect with host Kimberly Hand:Website: https://www.kimberlyhand.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimberlyhand_Shop The Cinnamon Effect Journal here: https://thecinnamoneffect.com/journalThe Cinnamon Effect is recorded at PodPlus Studios ( @PodPlusStudios ) in Jupiter, Florida, and produced by Hype Boss ( @hype-boss-hype-boss )For more information, visit https://www.podplusstudios.com.

The night is done, the scores are in, and I have so much to share with you. If you’ve been following along on the Broadway Ballroom Battle journey, this episode is your full update - the real, honest recap of everything that happened.A few weeks ago, I shared in Episode 124 Link here why I said yes to competing in the Broadway Ballroom Battle - a charity ballroom dance competition supporting the Goldner Conservatory at the Maltz Jupiter Theatre and the next generation of young performers. Today, I’m back with the full recap.I’m walking you through what the days leading up to the competition actually felt like, the unexpected things that came up along the way and how I worked through them, and what it meant to step on that dance floor and give it everything I had.I also talk about what it was like being coached by the professionals at Fred Astaire Dance Studios - and yes, I get to share some really exciting news - I walked away with Top Audience Favorite and Top Ballroom Star, which still feels surreal to say out loud.But more than the awards, this experience reminded me of something I talk about a lot here on The Cinnamon Effect: real growth happens when we say yes to the uncomfortable things, when we show up even when we’re nervous, and when we trust the process. This was that, fully lived out.In this episode I’m sharing: • What the nerves really looked like in the days before competition night • The unexpected moments I didn’t see coming - and how I handled them • Why doing hard things is one of the most powerful tools for personal growth and overall wellness • What winning Top Audience Favorite and Top Ballroom Star meant to me • The bigger takeaway I’m carrying forward - and what I hope it sparks in youThank you for cheering me on through every step of this journey. I felt every bit of your support, and I couldn’t wait to come back here and share this with you. Let’s get into it.

In this episode of The Cinnamon Effect podcast, I sit down with holistic and biological dentist Dr. Ilona Fotek - an internationally recognized leader in cosmetic and biologic restorative dentistry with two decades of clinical expertise. We talk about something I don’t think we pay enough attention to: how deeply your oral health is connected to your entire body.This conversation completely shifted my perspective.We talk about how what’s going on in your mouth can impact everything from inflammation to gut health to chronic issues- and how biological dentistry looks at the whole person, not just your teeth. Dr. Fotek breaks down why your mouth can be an early signal for what’s happening elsewhere in your body, and why so many people are missing this piece when it comes to their health.Of course, I asked her for specifics. We get into the toothpaste she actually recommends, what to look for (and avoid) in floss, and the simple daily routines that can make a real difference - like tongue scraping and oil pulling.This is one of those conversations that makes you rethink what “taking care of yourself” actually means.If you’ve been doing all the right things but still feel like something is off, this episode might connect a few dots.

The two share why they committed to stepping far outside their comfort zones to compete in Battle of the Ballroom, a high-energy fundraising event supporting the next generation of performers at the Goldner Conservatory at the Maltz Jupiter Theatre.What starts as a conversation about ballroom dancing quickly turns into a deeper exploration of movement as medicine, the courage it takes to try something new in midlife, and the powerful example it sets for our kids when we choose growth over comfort.
