If you think you have a hiring problem, I’m going to lovingly tell you, you probably don’t. What you actually have is a leadership void.

In this episode, we’re diving into the systems and structure that are actually missing when stylists don’t stick, when culture feels off, and when you keep finding yourself in a cycle of hiring, rehiring, and repeating. Spoiler: your team isn’t the problem. Your lack of leadership systems is.

We’re getting into:

• Why hiring based on “vibes” is not a strategy

• What happens when you don’t set the culture (hint: your team will do it for you)

• The difference between freedom and flying by the seat of your pants

• And how to hire for longevity, not just for next Saturday’s shift

Whether you’re just starting to build your team or you’ve had the same crew for years, this conversation will challenge the way you think about leadership, structure, and your role as the one driving the culture forward.

And if you’re ready to take this even deeper, I’m breaking it all down inside my Seven Systems to Seven Figures masterclass.

Are you exhausted from doing all the things but still wondering why your business feels like it’s stuck on a hamster wheel? You’re not alone—and I’ve got news for you: working hard doesn’t automatically mean you’re building something that lasts.

In today’s episode, I’m giving you the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed. We’re diving into the truth about what’s actually keeping you from scaling—and spoiler alert—it’s not your lack of hustle. It’s that you’re mistaking activity for strategy.

We’re talking about:

• Why being super organized doesn’t mean you’re set up for success

• The difference between effort and effectiveness in your salon

• What real business maturity looks like

• The systems your salon needs if you want to stop babysitting your biz and start scaling it

Do you ever feel like you’re shouldering the weight of your business and life on your own? If you're a woman in leadership, chances are you’ve felt this burden—juggling decisions, managing a salon, handling your household, and trying to maintain that perfect Pinterest-worthy image. But what if I told you that you don’t have to do it all alone?

In today’s episode, we dive into the importance of support—real support. I’m sharing why having the right kind of guidance, mentorship, and community can make all the difference in moving your business forward.
