In today's honest episode, we talk to the lovely Becca Hentz. Becca is a true hype queen, very early on when speaking to Becca I could see just how much she loves empowering women through make-up and it was truly refreshing to see. We speak about the impact that being a make-up artist can have on clients and how it’s important to make the whole experience truly magical!

We also dive deep into the misconceptions around making a career being a make-up artist. Becca and I talk openly about our parents and our need to make them proud with what we do, and advise others in similar situations on how to navigate through them. We also touch base on how Becca finds her confidence and the importance of putting yourself out there, if you feel uncertain about making certain moves, Becca is the one to talk you out of that mindset.

In today's super exciting episode, we talk to my ultimate girl crush, Tina Derkse, in a truly unique episode on topics we haven't really touched on yet - and that's red carpet and super high end luxury. Both me and Tina are great fans of one another, having followed her for a long time, I have always admired her business, etiquette, classiness and complete professionalism she brings to the table. In this episode, Tina goes into her 20 year career, she talks about getting into destination bridal (with her second ever destination being royalty!) as well as crafting a truly unique and special experience for her clients. We also touch on her years of red carpet experience, how she got into that and how YOU can get into it also.

It's juicy and it's wholesome. Tina doesn't hold back her knowledge, going into how you can have a career spanning the experiences she has had, how to truly step into your artistry and into the luxury space. Prepare to fall in love.

Thee one and only Elyssa Desai - wow, I've been a fan of her and her work for the LONGEST time so it was incredible to sit down and interview her for this podcast episode!

Elyssa Desai is a Mindset Coach & Hypnotherapist, she dedicates her work to coaching women to be the best that can be, to really live up to their full potential and she does an amazing job at it too. I've teamed up with her to create an in-person event for my community and Level Up Club. Ahead of this event, I wanted to pick Elyssa's brain on common mindset blocks and how to push through them and I picked! We explored where fear and limiting beliefs come from, and how to overcome them. As well as the impact that mindset has on everyday life, not only just business but relationships with friends/family, yourself and even down to money!

In today's episode of Behind the Student (the series where we chat to my previous students who are going through the real building blocks of scaling a business right now!) we chat to Jacquelyn McPhee! In this conversational episode, we discuss how we came to meet, the turn in Jacquelyn's life that made her reassess her career, pivoting from nursing to makeup and what she's currently working towards in her business. Jacquelyn really is such a powerhouse and inspires me every single day with the way she shows up for her business, as a mother and as a role model. I can't wait for you to fall in love with her.

Trigger warning: realities of grief after loss. In this episode we speak a lot on grief, and dealing with the loss of a loved one, which can be triggering for some. Please only listen at your own discretion.

In today's episode, I speak with the incredible Anita Mae Aguilar, on her career as a makeup artist, and leaving makeup to pursue coaching, podcasting and new careers in production. I think this episode is so crucially important - as it's something we have yet to discuss on the podcast, when you know to time to LEAVE makeup. It's a very conversational and spiritual one today, looking at Anita's career, relationship with God and surrendering to herself, her intuition and her relationships.

In today's brand new series, I talk to one of my past AND current students Yemi! Yemi actually requested this series, and the sole reason the Level Up Club exists. She is a Season 3 sister, who asked to see more interview guests who are IN THE TRENCHES, growing their business, going through real problems and learning right now in the moment. It was such a good idea, so presenting my first guest, it had to be YEMI! We discuss:

- Her business beginnings and how we found eachother

- What she learnt from her season of the mentorship and what it was like to show up for HERSELF

- What her business currently looks like, her future plans and what she's currently struggling with

- How she is aiming for 6 figures in 2 years and the mindset shift it takes!
