In Episode 1, we're taking you back to the beginning. We share how a Broadway-dreaming girl from Ball State ended up building one of Indianapolis's most respected salons, and how a young stylist walked into David and Mary's with a cover letter in hand and a Chevy Cavalier in the parking lot. You'll also hear how two Leos, who didn't always see eye to eye, kept finding our way back to each other.
This episode is all about our origin stories: where we started, what those early years really looked like, and why, after 20, 40, however many years, we still love what we do.
Plus, we're giving you a sneak peek at what's coming: hair loss, weight loss, aging, going gray, and all the things nobody tells you about building a career in beauty.
New episodes every other Friday at 12 PM ET.
