Are you in a business rut and secretly wondering if you should just start applying for jobs again? In this episode, I dive headfirst into the mindset spiral so many beauty business owners find themselves in when things slow down. Whether your books are looking sparse, the algorithm’s being shady, or your inner critic is louder than your kid during a tantrum, I’ve been there - and I share what’s helped me flip the script. 

This one is a heart-to-heart (with a little tough love) for anyone who's ever felt like throwing in the towel. Building a business isn't just strategy. It's energy, mindset, and believing you still have something to offer, even when the bookings aren’t flooding in. I also share a few personal stories, including the very real, sometimes hard, conversations that helped me triple my business last year. Hit play for a mindset reset!

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The mindset pattern that quietly sabotages growth 
  
  
• How to flip the script on the “market is saturated” fear
  
  
• Why your daily actions might not be matching your big goals (and how to fix it)
  
  
• The surprising connection between your messy house and your business success
  
  
• My favorite non-toxic way to deal with negative self-talk (without stuffing it down)

Whether you're in a packed city or a tiny town, staying on top of education, techniques, and client preferences is what separates a good lash artist from a go-to expert. Let’s talk about what’s hot, what’s fading, and how you can position yourself for long-term success.

Have you ever hit a point where your to-do list feels like it’s never-ending, your brain won’t turn off, and no matter how much you hustle, you’re still overwhelmed? Yeah… same. In this episode, I pull back the curtain and get real about the burnout I didn’t see coming, how I knew I had to make changes, and what I’m doing to make my business (and life) sustainable again. 

No highlight reels here—just an honest look at what happens when we push too hard and how to find our way back. If you’ve ever felt like you’re juggling a million things and still dropping the ball, this one’s for you.
