In this solo episode, I (Jess) reintroduce myself, share my background story and the drive and intention behind this podcast and our coaching work. 

 I passionately get into something that quietly shapes everything: our relationship with our own attention, time, energy, and nervous system.

I speak honestly about the mental noise I was experiencing,
what brought me back to my center,
and why peace and presence are not luxuries, they’re foundations. I share direction for you to do the same! 

This episode could change your life faster than any other if you lean into it! 

If you’ve been feeling overstimulated, scattered, or disconnected from yourself…
If you’ve been craving more clarity, depth, and intentional living personally and professionally,
this conversation is for you.

In this special, impromptu episode of the Beyond Esthetics Podcast, we’re joined by two incredible voices from our community, Marti Hutchinson and Gabby Gaione, for an honest, heart-centered conversation rooted in connection, reflection, and collaboration.

Together, we explore what it truly means to winter well — slowing down, softening, and honoring the natural cycles of life and business during the colder months. We share the meaningful gifts we’re giving our loved ones this season, how we’re navigating the holidays with intention, and what we’re personally and professionally releasing as we close out 2025, a powerful Year of the Snake and a collective 9 year of completion and shedding.

We also dive into authenticity of what it looks like to show up as we are, let go of perfection, and allow our real stories to be part of our leadership. This episode is a reminder that growth doesn’t have to happen alone. In fact, some of the most profound expansion happens in community.

This conversation beautifully reflects one of our core values at Beyond Esthetics: community over competition. Collaboration, shared wisdom, and honest dialogue don’t dilute our voices, they amplify them.

Whether you’re reflecting, releasing, or setting intentions for the year ahead, this episode invites you to slow down, tune inward, and remember the power of doing this work together.

Some years tear you open so you can finally see yourself clearly.
This was that year.

The Snake and the 9 Year peeled back layers that were never meant to come with us — the roles we outgrew, the identities we performed, the survival strategies that no longer protected us. Estheticians everywhere felt the shedding: the unraveling of old business models, the collapse of burnout culture, the deep return to truth.

And now… the rising begins.

As we step into the Horse and the 1 Year, a new era of estheticians is awakening.
An era driven by authenticity, instinct, aligned momentum, and embodied leadership.
An era where we stop performing and start becoming.
An era where we rise not from pressure, but from purpose.

In this powerful reflection episode, Jess and Tiffanie explore the collective transformation happening within the beauty industry — and the personal shifts they experienced along the way.

If you’ve felt yourself shedding, awakening, or stepping into a version of yourself you barely recognize… this episode will meet you right where you are.

A new era of estheticians is here.
And you’re part of it.

In this sacred, intimate and expansive episode, we sat down for what started as a casual life check-in and a plan for a totally different topic, and ended up in the ethereal - a raw, real conversation about spiritual awakenings, feminine energy, and finding purpose in both life and business. This is the type of conversation you’d hear between us if you were a fly on the wall and we are honored to let you take a front row seat to the depth of our connection in conversation.

We open up about our own awakening journeys, how it’s shaped the way we lead, coach, and connect, and why the beauty industry is shifting toward a more feminine, intuitive energy.

We’ll share grounded advice for anyone walking through a season of deep transformation—how to find your tribe, stay in light energy, and balance the dance between masculine “doing” and feminine “being.”

We also dive into:

• The connection between spirituality and your beauty career

• Practical ways to uncover your purpose

• How feminine energy is redefining leadership and esthetics

• Podcast and book recommendations for spiritual growth

• And how to navigate the highs and lows of awakening with grace

This one is full of heart, soul and the kind of depth that reminds you—you’re not alone on your journey.

This week, we’re cozying up for some real talk with Sarah Faustine, founder of Boise Beauty Connection — a platform all about celebrating the pros who deliver unforgettable client experiences.

We dive into what truly sets a beauty business apart (hint: it’s more than your menu), how to bridge the gap between the professional and the client perspective, and why connection, trust, and reputation matter more than ever in today’s industry.

It’s part girl talk, part growth talk — the kind of conversation that reminds you why you started, inspires you to show up with intention in every client interaction and reminds you why every detail matters.

✨ Topics we cover:
• What makes an exceptional client experience truly feel different
• The role of energy, communication & reputation in beauty
• Finding your brand’s heartbeat and showing up authentically
• Why local community and connection matter more than competition

Tune in, pour yourself a matcha or iced coffee, and join us for a conversation that feels like sitting in your best friend’s living room — full of warmth, honesty, and inspiration for every beauty pro.

We talk about what that “in-between” season looked like—when the dream is planted but the pieces haven’t come together yet. From recovering from surgery to job hunting and juggling part-time work, Sierra walks us through how she held the vision, trusted herself, and eventually said yes to the opportunity that changed everything.

We also dive into how she’s used personal branding, mentorship, and her BFF ChatGPT to build fast momentum—while staying deeply aligned with her values. You’ll hear how she’s structuring her business now to walk away from Costco for good and what this soul-led journey has taught her in both business and life.

If you’ve ever craved permission to pivot, build your own thing, or trust the path that’s calling you—this one’s for you.

Realigned.
That’s how Michelle describes her journey back to herself, her family, and a business that truly fits her life.

In this episode of Beyond Esthetics, we sit down with Michelle — a small-town Canadian esthetician, mom, and former spa owner — who shares how she got into Esthetics and the spiritual journey that was so integral, how she went from managing a team to choosing simplicity, purpose, and alignment and what success truly means to her now! This is one of the most spiritually inspiring conversations we've ever done that gave us chills all the way through! 

She takes us inside the emotional pivot of downsizing, the systems that support her peace, and her recent journey into the Enneagram and self-discovery work that's helped her lead with more clarity and confidence than ever before.

✨ This one is for every beauty pro who’s ever felt like “more” isn’t always better.

Pull up a chair and pour yourself something cozy — because this episode feels like a heart-to-heart with your closest esty girlfriends.

We’re bringing back one of our favorite humans, Erin Malinski, for a soul-deep conversation that’s been a long time coming. This one is for the beauty pros who are done with the comparison trap, tired of pretending they have to do it all alone, and ready to step into something more… aligned, authentic, and connected.

Together with Erin, we unpack what “community over competition” really looks like — not just as a cute phrase, but as a powerful way to lead, live, and build a sustainable business. This value is the heartbeat of Beyond Esthetics, and in this episode, you’ll hear why.

✨ We talk about:

• How comparison can sneak into your career (and what to do about it)
• The real growth that comes from collaboration and support
• Personal stories from all three of us about letting go of ego and choosing connection
• Why mentorship, community, and sisterhood change the game
• And how to start building that kind of support right now

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “behind,” like someone else’s success takes away from yours, or like you’re doing it all alone — this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to be.

💬 “There’s room for you. There’s room for all of us. And the magic happens when we stop competing and start cheering each other on.”
