KELLY LEVEQUE
About this episode

In this episode, I sit down with Bethany McDaniel, the founder of Primally Pure and host of The Grounded Wellness Podcast. Bethany shares how her own struggles with acne led her to ditch harsh prescriptions and discover the power of simple, natural ingredients. What started with just $250 in supplies has now grown into a thriving skincare company rooted in purity, nature, and intentional living.

We talk about the messy but rewarding journey of entrepreneurship, the realities of balancing business and motherhood, and the daily practices that keep her grounded. From her first product launch to navigating growth, from sun protection to circadian rhythms, Bethany opens up about the wisdom she’s learned along the way.
