Next week, I'll be 37 years old.
Over the past few years, I have made some special gifts for myself.
In 2022, I made myself the gift of getting out of the comfort zone and from the shadow I've been hiding my whole life: the personal branding process with Rusanda Davideanu.
In 2023, I gave myself the gift of unleashing my femininity through the dancing classes taught by the beautiful Andreea Tocitu.
In 2024, I gave myself the gift of deciding to move to Spain and start over again.
In 2025, I decided to prioritise my PEACE as a gift to myself for this year.
So, in the past years, I've been focusing on growing, on self-changing, and on shifting mindsets.
I have transitioned from experiencing an inferiority complex and imposter syndrome to realising my own worth and deservingness of worthy things.
The focus shifted from Raluca behind the cameras to Raluca in the spotlight, participating in interviews, podcasts, TV news shows, shootings, campaigns, and events, both as a host and as a guest.
I've acquired the bravery and strength to inspire others through my voice.
I've made the shift from constantly hating the way my body and face look to embracing and showcasing my powerful femininity.
This year, my primary goal is to live in the present moment more fully, slow down, and stop stressing over getting things done. Avoiding toxic people, learning to say "no" more often, and finding some equilibrium are all ways to stay healthy. Apart from that, my tried and true routine of vitamins and supplements will undoubtedly not change.
Among other healthy habits, I will continue to take CBD oil from @hempaid.ro, which is like a panacea for my anxiety, and @moleculesofyouth.ro's M18 Beauty Collagen Pro or M34 Joints Collagen Pro, which not only help with my skin and hair problems but also encourage me to be more careful with my bones and ligaments, especially as I approach my 40s.

And speaking of these two of my favourite well-being products, I've asked Viviana Corneteanu a few things about how we can maintain, as women, a sort of balance (the perfect life doesn't exist, ok?) between all these roles we embrace every day.
Viviana, amidst the daily chaos of our lives, the concept of healthy longevity has become a common focus as people strive to not only live longer but also maintain better health. Please tell me, in what way are M18 Beauty Collagen Pro or M34 Joints Collagen Pro improving a woman's well-being in order to live a longer and healthier life?
Raluca, healthy longevity is about thriving at every stage of life, and MOY products like M18 Beauty Collagen Pro and M34 Joints Collagen Pro are designed to support this journey.
M18 focuses on skin health, improving elasticity, hydration, and reducing wrinkles, helping women maintain their confidence and vitality as they age.
Meanwhile, M34 supports joint mobility and comfort, promoting an active lifestyle free of pain or stiffness. Both products are enriched with clinically proven ingredients that work synergistically to enhance physical resilience, ensuring that women not only live longer but enjoy those years with energy, beauty, and strength.
How can I choose the right MOY product for me from the options listed on the RepublicaBio website? What do I need to know before ordering it?
Choosing the right MOY collagen product starts with understanding your body's needs. After the age of 25, our bodies lose about 1% of collagen annually, so it’s essential to start replenishing it to maintain healthy skin, hair, nails, bones, muscles, and joints. All MOY collagen products offer clinically proven benefits in just 12 weeks, with visible results across beauty and mobility.
The key is to consider your primary goal: products like M18 focus on beauty with added biotin, hyaluronic acid, or vitamin A, while M34 targets joint health with ingredients like glucosamine and chondroitin. Equally important is how easily you can integrate it into your daily routine—the best collagen is the one you actually take! Think about whether you prefer a specific flavor to make it an enjoyable habit.
I came across a post on the MOY Instagram account that truly resonated with me: it's not about anti-ageing but rather well-ageing, and I assume this aligns with your brand's philosophy. Tell me more, please.
You’re absolutely right—at MOY, our philosophy is rooted in the concept of well-ageing, not anti-ageing. We believe that every individual holds the power, through their daily choices, to slow the effects of aging and extend their state of health and vitality. This belief forms the cornerstone of our vision: to inspire people to embrace aging as an opportunity to thrive rather than a limitation.
Our mission is to provide scientifically proven resources, like our premium collagen and longevity supplements, to help people mitigate the effects of aging. These solutions empower them to look, feel, and live free of the restrictions—or limiting beliefs—often tied to age.
We take great care in our customer approach, prioritizing empowerment and understanding their unique needs and aspirations. For us, it’s about building a partnership with our customers on their journey toward longevity, vitality, and well-being.
I would like to also ask you about the Hemp AID CBD oil. This was not the first time I had tried a CBD-based product, but it was the first time I truly noticed a significant difference in easing my anxiety symptoms and improving my poor sleeping habits. I am honestly telling you that it helped me big time during a difficult period. What makes this CBD product so special, and how can a woman determine which option from the RepublicaBio website best suits her needs?
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience with HempAID CBD oil—it truly means a lot to us to know that it made such a positive impact during a challenging time. At HempAID, we are deeply committed to creating meaningful solutions, and feedback like yours reminds us why we started this journey.
Our journey began as an education platform in the CBD world. While we developed high-quality, research-backed products, we quickly realized that awareness about CBD’s incredible benefits was still in its infancy. We’re now at a pivotal moment where more people are embracing their emotional well-being and looking for sustainable, long-term solutions. CBD, this powerful and versatile compound from the cannabis plant, has proven through studies to be effective in areas like anxiety, stress, and sleep—conditions that affect so many.
In fact, we conducted Romania’s first-ever study on our 1000 mg CBD oil specifically for anxiety, stress, and sleep disorders, and the results have been outstanding. Now, our focus is on sharing these insights and raising awareness to make CBD a trusted and sustainable option for managing daily challenges. It’s important to note that CBD is the non-psychoactive compound derived from the cannabis plant, often mistakenly confused with THC, the psychoactive component.
What makes HempAID stand out in the market is, first and foremost, that it is one of the few CBD brands in Romania fully compliant with Romanian law. Secondly, we prioritize quality and transparency, offering personalized, study-backed formulas. Every product is rigorously tested by third-party laboratories to verify concentrations, ensuring our customers receive a product that truly works. This commitment to compliance, quality, and trust sets us apart, empowering our customers to make informed and confident choices.
When choosing a HempAID product, the key is to match the concentration to your needs. For mild to moderate concerns like anxiety, sleep issues, or chronic stress, our lower concentrations (500 mg or 1000 mg) are a great starting point. For more severe or long-standing conditions like later-stage depression, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, or even support during chemotherapy, higher concentrations (2000 mg or 2500 mg) are recommended. It’s all about understanding the severity of your condition and choosing the most suitable option for your unique needs.
And if you ever feel unsure about which product is the best fit for your needs, feel free to reach out to our dedicated customer support team. We take customer service very seriously, and our team will promptly answer any questions you may have, ensuring you make the best choice and have all the information needed to fully benefit from our products. Your well-being is our priority, and we’re here to help every step of the way!
