Stephanie loves what she does because she has created a space where women can relax and enjoy one to one customer service while shopping. She feels good about the fact that Breathe only sells collections made in Vancouver and Los Angeles. She believes in supporting a local economy and reducing her venture’s carbon footprint.

iHeart is a fingertip device and mobile application. It determines a user’s internal age in 30 seconds by measuring aortic pulse wave velocity, a scientifically proven heart health, brain health, and internal health metric.

The VitalSines team has developed a user-friendly, cost effective tool for monitoring the effect lifestyle choices have on both short and long term internal health. Sarah is proud to be part of a company that is increasing lifespans and educating people. Learn more about iHeart at GoiHeart.com JULY/AUGUST 2016
