In this episode of the SpaHive Business Besties podcast, Julie and MaryAnn dish on the things they’ve stopped faking—like glorifying busyness and following tired trends that just don’t serve anymore. They get real about what work-life balance actually looks like, the joy in everyday moments, and how client expectations in the spa world are evolving. It’s a conversation about authenticity, meaningful services, and ditching the fluff so you can focus on what really delivers results.
