Being a Whole Person

Showing Up As Your Best Authentic Self with Brianna Christie

Listen Later

Brianna Christie is the owner and founder of Modify Salon in Minneapolis, and has been expertly cutting my hair for 15 years! I look forward to every haircut not just because of her skills, but because we always have great, deep conversations about creativity, wellness, being a business owner, and life.

Listen in to hear us talk about self improvement coming from a place of self love, how seeking support from a coach totally changed how Brianna meets her needs as a mom and business owner, being intentional about finding fun and joy, and how she helps her clients feel most like their authentic selves.

TOPICS DISCUSSED:

  • “Mastering a good lifestyle” and what that means to Brianna
  • Self improvement coming from a place of self love
  • How it can be complicated to identify as “creative”
  • How she became a hairdresser and how that work became her purpose by helping people show who they really are on the inside
  • Imposter syndrome and how we deal with it (not necessarily fix it!)
  • Her biggest challenge as a business owner and as a creative person
  • Setting boundaries
  • Needing alone time as an extrovert (yes, extroverts need alone time, too), and how she schedules with that in mind to preserve her energy level
  • How she has sought support from a coach and how that affected how she looks at her own needs
  • Her experience with burnout and how that led to creating more balance in her life
  • Her favorite self care practices, from the more tactical to the often underappreciated
  • Why she thought she didn't like being a mom at first and how she’s redefining the stereotypes around “doing it all”
  • The benefits of pessimism
  • Ways to make the upcoming winter feel better, especially for those in northern climates
  • Being intentional about finding fun and joy during COVID times

    • RESOURCES DISCUSSED:

    Adam Grant: Originals (The book I couldn’t remember the title of when we were talking about pessimism - he references being a defensive pessimistic or a strategic optimistic.)
