We had the good fortune of connecting with Hannah Minardi and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Hannah, can you share a quote or affirmation with us?
“Gratitude is a magnet for miracles.”

I always love to have a phrase to meditate on and fall back to. For the past year this has been my favorite. I think we all know what it feels like when you’re truly grateful and operating from a place of wholeness. When we start there, our lives become a magnet for miracles – but it first requires with an action on our part.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Last year we launched the skincare line Standard Self Care. Very excited about being able to continue to develop products that are a higher Standard in the beauty and self care space.

We knew that “Cleaner” products often don’t have the desired results for a high-performance lifestyle. So we crafted each one of our products to provide noticeable results and ingredients that you can have the most confidence in. We also know that today’s consumer values transparency, so we make our updated test results accessible on our website.

Our first line of products consists of 3 ultra-hydrating and anti-aging products: Hydrating Omega+ Cleansing Balm, Hyaluronic Daily Moisturizer, and Omega+ Cell Regenerating Eye Cream. Always bioactive, non-toxic, vegan, paraben-free, cruelty-free and made with the highest Standards.

Always available at StandardSelfCare.com & @standardselfcare

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?

Ah! What a dream – a week with one of my best friends in my city. If I had to choose, I would always want to spend a day in Malibu, especially if weather is good!

The day would start with some kind of movement. A few of my LA favorites:

Morning Hike: Los Liones
Pilates: Megaformer, Studio MDR, P.Volve
HIIT Workout: Barry’s, Boxing
Yoga: Sweat Yoga, Heated Room, Hot 8

Next stop by my favorite coffee & juice spot Kreation. I always get their large iced Kreation coffee with a dash of their homemade coconut milk & a skin juice. I love that their coffees are consciously brewed and are mold free. Also their milks are made in house!

If weather is good, the ideal day would be spent in Malibu.

Lunch: Malibu Farm for the view and ocean breeze or Sunlife for the best acai bowls & smoothies.

Shopping: The Country Mart is fun to walk around and visit the boutiques – always fun finds there.

Dinner: Taverna Tony or head back to the Palisades village. Favorite dine-in places: Porta Via or Pearl Dragon

OR grab take out from Cafe Vida and head to the bluffs to enjoy the sunset.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I wouldn’t be me without my sisters – both blood-related and not – who have helped me to grow and develop. One of which is Nina Barber who is one of the most inspiring humans. She is my favorite boss turned best friend! Much of my career development I attribute to the ways she affirmed and encouraged me since I was 18. Nina is an exceptional business owner and entrepreneur, as well as a world-class friend. Grateful to have had her, along with a lot of other strong women supporting me throughout my journey.
