Beyond Skincare: Denisse Ruiz on Healing, Faith, and Self-Esteem
Saturday, 10 January, 2026
In this episode of Diversity Conversations, Eric Ellis and Tommie Lewis welcome Denisse Ruiz, entrepreneur and Cincinnati licensed esthetician, for a powerful conversation that goes far beyond skincare. Denisse shares her journey from struggling with acne and self-esteem as a teen to building a purpose-driven aesthetics practice rooted in compassion, excellence, and faith. Together, they explore how skincare intersects with mental health, confidence, identity, and spiritual healing, plus why consistent self-care is not superficial when it restores dignity and peace. You’ll also hear about Denisse’s heart for service, including her nonprofit A Touch of Faith, created to provide free skincare support to individuals who may not have the resources for care and who are healing from life challenges. 🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8qu-QofEXs This episode is sponsored by Game Time Budgeting an award-winning financial wellness firm helping employees transform their relationship with money by focusing on mindset, behaviors, and simple systems.
