The Beyond Esthetics Podcast

In this episode of Beyond Esthetics, we’re talking about the power of micro habits and how small, intentional shifts can create major change in your wellness, energy, mindset, and daily life. From tiny nervous system resets to bigger wellness practices like walks, meditation, reading, and sleep hygiene, we explore how sustainable wellness is built through consistency and not perfection. 

Beyond Esthetics is about supporting estheticians as a whole person, - mind, body, soul, professional and personal. This episode is about getting back to the foundations of personal wellness so we can serve others deeper, develop an intentional career and reach our greatest potential - together!

In this episode, we’re joined by Carly Kenyon owner of CK Skin, a skin and laser clinic she built from the ground up—starting with zero clients in her spare room to now leading a full team.But this conversation isn’t just about what she’s built, it’s about how she feels while holding it.

After navigating burnout in the midst of growing her business and raising a family, Carly found herself on a path of rebuilding from the inside out—shifting her nervous system, her capacity, and her definition of success.

Today, she shares what it looks like to become the calmest and most successful version of yourself—and why that matters more than anything you’re building externally.

We dive into:

• The reality of burnout in the beauty industry
• What “feeling safe in your body” actually means
• How your nervous system impacts your business, clients, and leadership
• Letting go of hustle and creating structure that actually supports you
• Redefining success in a way that feels sustainable, grounded, and aligned

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, overextended, or disconnected while building your business… this episode will bring you back to what actually matters.

Because success doesn’t have to feel chaotic.

It can feel calm.

In this episode, we sit down with a powerful beauty professional and coach, Marlena Evenson, who works closely with high-performing women navigating success, burnout, and identity. After decades of life experience, including building multiple businesses, navigating personal loss, and redefining purpose, she now helps women shift from earning their worth to truly knowing it.

Together we explore why so many ambitious women operate from a place of proving, why external validation never feels like enough, and how burnout often stems from chasing worth through achievement.

We dive into authenticity, faith, purpose, and what happens when women begin to understand their true gifts and give others permission to do the same. This conversation is for anyone who has ever felt successful on paper but still searching for deeper fulfillment.

We'd LOVE a rating and review and for you to share the show with an esthetician who is aligned with our message

Alie didn’t stumble into esthetics — she was redirected into it again and again.

From rummaging through her mom’s makeup as a child, to being told she couldn’t make a career out of beauty, to pivoting into marketing only to feel completely unfulfilled; every detour brought her back to the treatment room.

In this episode, we talk about faith, surrender, people-pleasing, boundaries, burnout, and what it really takes to open a solo spa in today’s industry. Alie shares the emotional transition of leaving a long-term salon home and the deep trust that carried her forward.

We dive into:

• Authentic marketing vs. chasing trends
• Building a space that feels like you
• Boundaries as a solo esthetician
• Burnout, menstrual cycle awareness & energy protection
• Korean + Hungarian skincare fusion
• And why sometimes the only strategy is: GO

This episode is for the esthetician who feels called to more and needs permission to stop tiptoeing and trust the path unfolding in front of her.

Let’s rise with Alessandra!

In this deeply personal and expansive conversation, we sit down with Bria of Sacred Beauty to explore what happens when esthetics becomes more than a profession and begins to feel like a calling.

Bria approaches her work as both an esthetician and a minister through her hands, openly sharing her love for and trust in God as the guiding force behind her practice. We explore what it means to be Spirit-led in business, how faith shapes the way she serves her clients, and why she believes the treatment room can become a sacred space for healing far beyond the skin.

Together we discuss the meaning of holistic esthetics, the energetic responsibility practitioners carry, and how estheticians can begin “detoxing the treatment room” clearing not only products and protocols, but also the intentions, energy, and environment that shape every client experience.

This conversation also dives into the courage it takes to show up authentically in an industry that doesn’t always make space for spirituality, and how Bria’s unwavering faith has shaped her voice, her business, and her mission.

If you’ve ever felt that your work is about more than results… If you believe the treatment room holds space for something deeper… And if you’re curious what it means to practice as a truly holistic esthetician…

this episode will meet you there.

This is Beyond Esthetics. Let’s rise together.

Haley Burli is an esthetician who leads with presence, intuition, and deep respect for the unseen layers of this work. Her approach is rooted in lived spirituality, authenticity, and her openness to working with the unseen energy of life and nature. In this conversation, Haley shares how her relationship to esthetics has evolved beyond skin care into a practice of connection, trust, and very intentional care.

Together, we talk about what it means to practice with depth in an industry that often prioritizes appearance over presence. From energetic boundaries and authenticity, to holding space during emotional moments, this episode invites estheticians to honor the invisible labor of their work and redefine what success truly looks like.

This conversation is for practitioners who know there is more happening in the room than technique alone and who are ready to trust the work they feel, not just the work they can see.

In an industry built around productivity, service and consistency many women are quietly burning out despite doing “everything right.”

In this episode of the Beyond Esthetics Podcast, we sit down with our dear friend Marti Hutchinson to explore what happens when we stop forcing ourselves into linear business models and start honoring the natural rhythms of the female body.

We talk about:

• Why women are cyclical, not constant, and how ignoring that impacts our energy, creativity, and confidence
• How understanding your menstrual cycle can reshape scheduling, marketing, client care, and leadership
• Letting go of guilt, comparison, and unrealistic expectations around productivity
• Building a business and career that feels sustainable, intuitive, and supportive instead of draining

This conversation is an invitation to soften, listen, and work with your body rather than against it, while still creating success, momentum, and income in your esthetics career.

If you’ve ever felt like the traditional way of “doing business” doesn’t quite fit you, this episode will help you see why and what’s possible when you honor your natural rhythm.

What if progress doesn’t come from pushing forward, but from listening first?

In this episode, we sit down with a holistic esthetician, Jessica Sailer, who is closing out her twenties and stepping into a new decade with intention, reflection, and deep respect for the body’s wisdom. Rather than focusing on expansion or “what’s next,” this conversation centers on slowing down, simplifying, and rebuilding trust with the nervous system, intuition, and self.

We explore how skin can act as a signal rather than a flaw, why nourishment and consistency matter more than perfect protocols, and how stress, digestion, blood sugar, and hormones quietly influence both skin and overall well-being. Through lived experience and curiosity (not rigid expertise) our guest shares what she’s learned about honoring rhythms, letting go of control, and choosing presence over productivity.

This episode is an invitation to soften urgency, release the pressure to have everything figured out, and trust that intentional living is still progress, even when it looks quieter from the outside.
