We're coming to you live from XClub Retreat 2025 in Texas, and bringing you something special today. I'm sitting down with Kaytlin Garland, a salon owner chosen for the "hot seat" with Joey Coleman, an incredible author and renowned retention expert who spoke at the retreat. Kaytlin and I dive deep into this experience and the transformative insights she gained from it, and the entire retreat as a whole.

In this episode, Kaytlin reveals how she's refining her target market and streamlining her client journeys. You'll hear about the surprising clarity that came from holding a mirror up to her business, and so much more.
