Rosa Jenkins is a hairstylist, educator, and owner of Meraki Designer Salon in Temple, Texas, with more than two decades of experience in the beauty industry. Her journey into cosmetology is deeply personal. After experiencing foster care as a young woman and struggling to find people who understood how to properly care for her textured hair, Rosa learned to care for it herself; an experience that would eventually help shape her career and her commitment to making sure every client feels seen, understood, and confident.

Rosa began her professional journey through the cosmetology program at Temple High School and went on to build a career centered not only on great hair, but also on education. Today, she specializes in working with a variety of hair types and textures and continues to invest in education to better serve her clients. She also gives back through Foster Love Bell County, where she has led hair-care clinics helping foster families learn how to properly care for textured hair. As a business owner, wife, mother, and former foster youth, Rosa's story is one of resilience, purpose, and using her own experiences to create something better for the people coming behind her.

Leadership isn't about where you start. It's about who you become.

In this episode of Fry Girl Fundamentals, Mildred sits down with someone who knows her beyond the titles, leadership lessons, and professional accomplishments; her son.

Together, they explore how confidence is built through experience, why growth often requires stepping into situations before you feel completely ready, and the lessons that come from learning as you go. Their conversation offers a unique perspective across two generations and a reminder that confidence isn’t something you start with, it’s something you build through experience.

Meet Today's Guest:

Kim Moore is a mother of two, proud dog mom, and lifelong dentistry professional whose journey has been shaped by resilience, growth, and a genuine love for helping people. After beginning her career as a dental hygienist, she quickly discovered that what she loved most about dentistry went beyond clinical care; it was connecting with patients, educating others, and creating an environment where people felt heard and cared for.

Her career has since evolved from Hygiene Lead to Office Integrator and now General Manager overseeing two practices. With a Bachelor's Degree in Dental Hygiene and a recent Human Resources certification from Villanova University, Kim continues to invest in her growth and leadership. She believes our goals and dreams only have the limits we place on them and that as long as we're willing to keep learning and step outside our comfort zones, there's always another chapter waiting to be written.
