Running a business can be rewarding… but it can also be mentally exhausting in ways people don’t always talk about.

In this episode, we’re having an honest conversation about mental health and self-employment — the pressure to always keep going, the emotional side of entrepreneurship, feeling isolated, and the conversations so many business owners avoid having.

We talk about stress, anxiety, identity, burnout, and what it really feels like trying to balance your mental health while running a business.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or alone in your experience as a business owner, this episode is for you.

Feeling “behind” is something almost everyone experiences at some point, especially while building a business, or scrolling through social media watching everyone else hit milestones.

In this episode, we’re talking about the pressure to keep up, comparison culture, and the reminder that your life doesn’t have to look like everyone else’s to still be meaningful and successful.

We talk about social media, timelines, career pressure, personal growth, and why rushing your life to match someone else’s pace usually does more harm than good.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, discouraged, or like everyone else is ahead of you, this episode is for you.

Money, pricing, and guilt… it’s something so many people in the beauty industry struggle with, but don’t always talk about honestly.

In this episode, we’re getting real about what it feels like to charge for your time, raise your prices, and navigate the guilt that can come with making more money.

We talk about how our pricing has evolved, the mindset shifts that come with valuing your work, and the balance between being understanding with clients while still respecting your time and business.

If you’ve ever felt guilty charging what you’re worth or struggled with pricing decisions, this conversation is for you.

There’s a lot of pressure to get things “right” before you start, in business and in life.

In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when you stop waiting for everything to feel ready and just start showing up anyway.

We get into how perfectionism can hold you back, what consistency actually looks like in real life, and why messy progress is often what leads to real growth.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, unmotivated, or like you need everything to be perfect before taking the next step, this episode is for you.

Burnout is something so many people experience, especially in the beauty industry… but we don’t always talk about it honestly.

In this episode, we’re having a real conversation about what burnout actually looks like, why it’s so common, and how to start recognizing it before it gets overwhelming.

We talk about the mental, physical, and emotional side of burnout, how it can build over time, and why it doesn’t always mean you’re in the wrong career.

Sometimes burnout is feedback that something in your schedule, boundaries, or business needs to change.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just off lately, this episode is for you.

Running a small business can look exciting from the outside… but the loneliness behind the scenes is something no one really talks about. In this episode, we open up about the isolating side of entrepreneurship, and why being surrounded by people doesn’t always mean they understand.

Safety is one of the most important (and most misunderstood) topics in the beauty industry.
In this episode of LONL we talk about what we were taught, what we weren’t, and what we’ve learned since stepping outside of traditional beauty education.

We discuss:

• Why “school safety” isn’t the full picture

• Chemical vs. skin safety• Outdated practices still being passed down

• The importance of ongoing education

• Why asking questions is important This is an honest, educational conversation meant to support beauty professionals at every stage of their career. 

Drop your thoughts in the comments, we want to hear from you!!
