About the show

The Indulge & Explore Podcast interviews founders, employees, and small-town women who have built lives serving others who dream to explore. We cover lives of indulgence - the yachts, the Four Seasons, the filets on the deck with a glass of wine, and the sunset. And life’s opportunities to explore your own backyards - the dive pizzeria shop on the corner, making sourdough on your lunch break, the can’t miss ice cream stop on your road trip, and the path outside your own backyard.

Cloudmont Ski Resort: Cindy Jones

Did you know there is a ski resort in Alabama? Well there is and it is located on Lookout Mountain in Northeast Alabama. Cloudmont Ski Resort is one of a kind and offers a super fun night for any level of skier. When you arrive you can rent all the gear that you need, have a quick lesson from their staff, and then continue to learn for yourself on the hill. It is the perfect family activity. People come from all over to say that they have skied in AL. I recently was able to check it out for myself and we had a blast. They offer day and night skiing when they are able to blow snow. There is typically a short window of time that they are able to open in the winter because it is in the South. So, stay tuned to their Facebook for the latest updates on Cloudmont so you too can plan your trip to #SKIBAMA. Cloudmont Ski Resort Support the showAs always thank you for listening to the podcast!

Moon Lake Tallow with Sarah Mills-Bailey

Tallow has been all of the rage in the skincare world. I am loving incorporating this into my skincare routine day and night. I love how natural it is and free of chemicals and artificial fragrances. Sarah Mills-Bailey is the founder of Moon Lake Tallow. She shared how this business started and how it has taken off in just 1 year. There are different essential oils used within the tallow that all have different benefits. You cna purchase either whipped tallow or a tallow balm. Both have the same benefit but just come in two different forms. If you are local you can shop Moon Lake Tallow at the farmers market or the Mentone Market. She also had a website so you can purchase online. Follow along with Moon Lake Tallow! WebsiteInstagramFacebookSupport the showAs always thank you for listening to the podcast!

Mobile Saunas with Courtney Elling

With saunas bring all the rage right now, I had to bring Courtney Elling on the podcast to talk about her mobile sauna business and the benefits of sauna. I gained so much from this episode and it was so interesting to learn about these Nordic countries and how sauna is a way of life for them. I recently have began using the sauna more and more and I am so obsessed. The health benefits are undeniable, but the way it makes me feel instantly is why I have been incorporating it into my lifestyle several days a week. The concept of a mobile sauna is genius and I only forsee them coming to more and more cities around the U.S. Search around to see if there is one in your area and plug into the sauna community.
