This week Denys and I are doing our tell all episode on what it’s like to work for a franchise lash studio! As with anything in life, there are pros & cons to it. In this episode we talked about lessons we learned, whether franchises are a good place to start out at or not, crazy client stories, how to decide whether to go solo or work for someone else, all about taking foreign fills and how to do it effectively, and more!

I’m curious on your thoughts about the episode! DM me on IG and let me know what you think -> instagram.com/xoericaschramm

63. Spilling the Tea about Lash Biz Babes Online Conference

In this week's episode, you get to hear from one of my favorite people in our industry, Miss Jazzy!!! Today she shares her story of following her dreams to go into the beauty industry, how she transitioned from managing a franchise studio to going out on her own, what advice she would give you if you're wanting to do the same, how to keep moving forward when things get hard, and more! 


Her successful transition into going solo is a real life example of what can happen when you go all in, work hard, invest in your education and growth, and keep believing in yourself no matter what.


It brings up this question: What can happen for you if you had 6 months of self-discipline and sticking to your goals no matter what? A lot can happen with just one decision!
