Makeup artist and product developer, Karissa Bodnar, lost her dear friend Kristy to cancer at just 24 years old. Kristy’s compassionate and vivacious spirit inspired Karissa to establish Thrive Causemetics, a beauty brand and philosophy that goes beyond skin deep by empowering women. Thrive Causemetics’ products are made with high-performance, skin-loving ingredients that are 100% vegan and cruelty free. For every product purchased, Thrive helps women in need by donating funds and products to women who’ve experienced domestic abuse, to women seeking a path out of homelessness, as well as our women veterans during and after their military service.

Since then she's devoted herself to learning about and utilizing the mind-body connection to help others heal, both on and off the mat. Her students learn real-life tactics to cope with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction—things Shayla struggled with herself prior to her journey with yoga and wellness. Along with teaching trauma-sensitive yoga and offering personalized nutritional advice, Shayla is working toward becoming a licensed counsellor.
