45 min - How I Get Things Done
The number one question I get is, “How do you accomplish so much?”
In this episode of The Curly Girl’s Obsessions, I discuss how I do exactly that. It may not sound glamorous. It may even sound too regimented, but if you want to do the things to get you ahead, it takes a plan and consistency. I hope you get some really good nuggets of information for your daily practice that help motivate you to do and be more.

38 min - How I Started Creating Transformations With Hair Extensions & Building My Own Line Of Textured Handtied Hair Extensions
It started with wanting to work more hours in the salon I was at then. I needed to find something more than curly hair to fill that time. I chose hair extensions. I have learned several different methods of installing extensions but learned quickly that the Handtied methods were the best. Fewer points of contact on the hair mean less damage.
Once I figured out my favorite method, finding the perfect hair was the only thing that mattered. From there, Adored Signature Hand-tied Hair extensions was created. While there have been many bumps in the road, this career never ceases to amaze me. The places it has taken me have blown my mind, and continue to do so.
I hope you enjoy this listen. I am grateful for you and the time you spent with me. Please give us a follow and write a review or leave a rating! Thank you in advance.

56 min - How I Became A Curly Hair Specialist
It happened on New Year’s Eve my whole family was sick. I was eating dinner in my PJs and received a call from my friend. She told me that an experienced stylist at her salon quit, and they needed someone to take over her clientele. I knew the minute I hung up that phone, I was getting that position. From there, the story unfolds.
