Ep.64 - Finding Beautiful with Leah VanHoose

Leah VanHoose is a free spirit, leader, photographer, explorer, coach, licensed realtor at Emerald Coast Beach Homes, lover of the sun, lover of life, and totally unforgettable. For over ten years, Leah has managed and thrived in her life and career living with alopecia, an auto-immune medical condition where body hair falls out in round patches. Not one to hide her differences and "baldness," Leah embraces her appearance as a way to stand out and inspire others to turn a perceived "flaw" into a strength. In this episode, Jason talks with Leah to hear her insights on connecting with others, empowering women, the beach and vacation property market on the Florida Coast, exercise, diet, defining yourself, living life to the fullest, beer, and finding beauty in everything.
