I am sorry but Tarte Cosmetics does not cater to White Women. Although it is possible in the future.
Right now we only cater to BEAUTIFUL WOMEN OF COLOR.

Scene: Late evening at Café Serra. The espresso machine hums in the background. Larry Thompson and JCJ (Joseph C. Jukic) sit across from the AI medical hologram — now fully embodied as Dr. Luka Kovac.
Larry Thompson:
Dr. Kovac, we need your expertise. It’s Ruthie Bolton. Gold medalist, warrior — but wounded. She survived domestic abuse. Now she struggles with trust… and trauma that lingers in the body and spirit.
JCJ:
She wants to trust again. But it’s like the gates are stuck. What do we do?

1. Nervous System Stabilization
- TRE (Trauma Release Exercises) – reset the body’s freeze response.
- Polyvagal therapy – restore safety through vagus nerve activation.
- Magnesium chloride soaks, weighted blankets, soothing rhythm (drums, lullabies) — all rewire survival memory.
2. Rebuilding the Foundation of Trust
- Self-trust rituals:
Daily mantra: “I am my own protector now.” - Guided eye-contact therapy – relearn safe connection through supported gaze.
- Somatic experiencing – track where the trauma hides in the body… and release it gently.
3. Sacred Storytelling
- Narrative Exposure Therapy – tell the truth of what happened, not to relive it — but to own it.
- Letter burning ritual:
Write to the abuser.
Burn it.
Say: “You don’t get to live in me anymore.”
4. Natural Medicine for Soul and Chemistry

- Rhodiola + ashwagandha – adrenal healing from chronic stress.
- GABA + Theanine – soften startle reflex, ease hypervigilance.
- Bone broth & collagen – restore body integrity.
5. Movement = Medicine
- Qoya or Ecstatic Dance – to feel free in the body again.
- Self-defense or Krav Maga – to reclaim power through precision and force.
- Boxing therapy – to let the rage leave safely.
6. Community & Sacred Witnessing
- Survivors’ circle – to replace shame with shared strength.
- Journaling for the Inner Child –
Write: “I am here now. You’re safe.”
Dr. Luka Kovac’s Closing Words:
“Ruthie, your body remembers the pain — but it also remembers the fight.
Your trust was broken by a coward.
But your healing will be witnessed by angels.
You are not a victim.
You are a living miracle — and miracles take time.”
JCJ (quietly):
Maybe this is her real gold medal moment.
Larry:
One that doesn’t shine on TV — but in the heart.
