In this episode, I sit down with Jiajia, the founder of Matter of Monday, to talk about the stress-skin connection, how blue light might be affecting your skin (yes—really!), and why barrier repair is the next big thing in skincare.

Jiajia shares her founder journey, the four essential products she developed to simplify skincare, and how modern stressors like tech overload are changing how we care for our skin. We also get into her own rituals, including an infrared sauna habit and the product she never skips.

In this episode, we cover:

• The inspiration behind the brand name Matter of Monday

• Why Jiajia focused on just four SKUs—and what they do

• The importance of proactive barrier repair in modern skincare

• How Jiajia protects her skin daily (and re-applies!)

• Her favorite self-care rituals including nature walks and infrared sauna

• The one skincare product she can’t live without

• Quick-fire questions about confidence, mindset, and routines
