However, while I was busy building my career, I watched several friends and family members fight a battle with cancer. I realized the importance of healthy living and decided that I wanted to make a difference.
In my research, I had discovered that in Europe, over 1,800 chemicals have been regulated or banned in beauty products, while in the U.S., the FDA has only banned 11. I knew something had to change. I decided to create a paradigm shift in the industry. Several years ago, I became a driving force behind the movement of safe beauty. I set out to empower women by revealing the secrets of the beauty industry.

I started a blog and an iTunes top-rated podcast called JustAskDavid, published a few books, became a guest speaker at events around the world from Singapore to Turkey—appeared on national television, co-hosted my own national radio show, and was even named one of the “20 to Know” by Global Cosmetics Industry. I found myself reaching more than 17 million people regular basis with my message.
