Clean Living x Glo Eco Founder Series

In this episode, Kat sits down with Davina Kaonohi, CEO and co-founder of Element Apothec, a clean beauty and wellness brand rooted in plant-based healing, sustainability, and education. Davina shares the inspiring story behind the company—founded by her great aunt to treat chronic illness with plant medicine—and how her own Polynesian heritage and passion for holistic health led her to build a purpose-driven brand.

Together, they explore the benefits of medicinal mushrooms, CBD in skincare, and the science behind the brand’s newest product: a mushroom coffee designed to support gut-brain health and cognitive clarity. Davina also opens up about what it really means to build a sustainable brand—from ingredient sourcing to ethical partnerships—and the responsibility founders have to protect both people and the planet.

Whether you're curious about functional mushrooms, clean beauty, or building a mission-led brand, this episode is packed with insight, intention, and inspiration.
