GET READY!! My guest on this episode is someone I have been trying to get on the show for a few months and I am so pumped that he is here today and to share this episode with you.

My guest today is the one and only Asil Simsek. Also known as Fuckinghair on the Gram! (His alter ego) 

Asil was born and raised in Istanbul but moved to NYC in 2015 and now is currently based in NYC. He has taught and mentored thousands through social media. Asil mastered the teasing balayage technique and blonding but also loves creating different colors. He is known as a teasing balayage master, and has created his own style and taught many stylists and educators.

Through his alter ego page he has grown a brand and fan base of over 370,000 followers and is a Truss professional artist! 

What we talk about on this episode:

• How to push yourself to reach your goals

Babes!!! My guest today is my girl Gloria Muniz of ‘Gloria Loves Beauty’ and ‘Mane Boss Babes’. She is a stylist, salon owner, and Intuitive mindset coach for independent hairstylist.  Gloria has been in the beauty industry for 20+ years and now specializes in Luxury Hair Extensions.

 She struggled with hair loss and thinning from babies and thyroid issues and knowing what hair extensions have done for her and her confidence, she went all in to learn and bring the best and safest to her clients. She struggled with niching down and providing such a luxury service to her clients, after years of building such a well rounded loyal clientele, but the pay off has worked out in her favor! She is now obsessed with what she does every day and who she gets to work on..through that transformation, she realized she wanted to teach other stylists how to do the same and that's how Mane Boss Babes was born! 

Love bringing you stories like this.. to show you what’s possible. We don’t have to do the same thing (things) for ever. You are aloud to explore and pivot. To reinvent yourself. 

In this episode we dive into:

• Pushing through the tough times

One of my favorite quotes from this episode, “it only takes small steps to make a compound effect” and that is what I want you to get from this episode - take the chance, take the step - you are so worth it and something great is on the other side.

As I sit on the balcony of my hotel room this morning, I have to stop and really soak it all in…. This is the by product of hard work and money. Without money I wouldn’t be able to stay in this room, fly to another country and enjoy an entire week away from work.  Making money isn’t always the issue or “problem” for most of us, it’s being financially RESPONSIBLE with the money we do make. That’s why this week’s episode we dive into everyone’s favorite topic - MONEY & FINANCES.  Don’t be scared…. (I used to be)  I had all kinds of “money stories” I told myself to keep me small and in scarcity and I had the front row seat on the over spenders bus. But that all changed when I decided to have a different relationship with money. One where I “paid” attention to it! Cared for it, looked after it, encouraged it to grow… that’s why when I heard Jeremy’s story I had to share him with you! His Ig page is perfect for those of us who needed simple clear visuals on what to do with our money! 

My guest’s name is Jeremy Schneider. He is a successful entrepreneur and personal finance expert. After starting an internet company in college and selling it at the age of 34 for over $5M and retiring at 36, Jeremy has dedicated his life to teaching personal finance. He founded Personal Finance Club, a community of champions of the individual investor who help further financial education. Jeremy likes playing beach volleyball and writing bios about himself in the third person. 

We dive into:

• Everyone’s secret shame

This is your sign and your time to take control of your finances and set yourself up for financial success in the future. It’s not too late - as Jeremy says, “don’t let the fear of not being the perfect investor stop you from getting started.”

In this episode I had the honor to speak with Eva Machado of Purpose People Co. We had been planning this interview for a while now, but we made it happen and I am so excited about it. 

Eva started as a nurse. After working as a nurse for several years and seeing first hand how many exhausted nurses struggled to be fulfilled in their careers, Eva started to explore why.

Since her first product launch two years ago, Purpose People was the start of the place where nurses come to feel seen and heard in the highs and lows of their careers. The brand has since shipped thousands of orders, created free community resources and raised thousands of dollars to several causes. Our initiative to provide care packages to COVID nurses which got national media attention and was featured on Good Morning America.

She is on a mission to support nurses in the biggest way possible. Not only constantly coming up with the next tee design or inspiration that nurses need, but searching for the cause in need.

She likes to call their approach to generosity "cyclical giving". We give in seasons to different areas, as the current need is always changing. We love to adapt and show support where the greatest need is.

In this episode we talk about:

• Changing paths & Listing to your gut

In this episode we dive into CREATING AUTHENTIC COMMUNITY with our special guest Milly Ortega.

Milly was born in Caguas, Puerto Rico and raised in Phoenix, Arizona where she currently resides. She loves spending time with her family, including her loving Husband and their two amazing little Boys. In her spare time, she enjoys exercising, traveling, fine dining, shopping and self-care. Milly has over 15 years of experience in the Medical field. The last 8 years she worked as a Surgical Technician in the operating room assisting with Invasive Surgical procedures. She spent long demanding hours working in a high-stress environment at the hospital + taking call where she found herself missing out on time with her family, special events, holidays and much more.

She soon realized that this lifestyle was no longer practical for raising her family and decided to take further action into finding herself a new career that she would not only love and enjoy but could also provide her with more flexibility and financial freedom. During COVID, she discovered the Non-invasive industry which she became incredibly passionate about. She then went on to launch her very own Body Sculpting business where she found herself making connections and impacting her client’s lives with her treatments.

Milly wanted to share her passion and success with other women so she expanded her business to create her own Academy program designed to influence motivated & ambitious women world-wide by offering Body Sculpting certification trainings. Becoming an Educator & Mentor was one of Milly’s greatest gifts. She wants to empower you to  change your life by offering you the opportunity to reclaim your time, create financial freedom, be with your family everyday and to finally live the life you desire.

What we cover:

• Find fulfillment and joy in life

Quote from this episode: "I wanna see all women thriving and succeeding. It's amazing to see because there's so many women out there. I feel like I talk to so many women, friends and families, strangers that are just so unfulfilled and happy and especially given the times that we're in right now, they're looking for a way to be able to financially provide for their family and change their family's financial future forever. So, I mean, this is an incredible opportunity to really just get more insight and really just take inspired action and go all in on yourself, trust yourself and just do do it, girl"

In this week’s episode, I am diving into a children’s book that spoke more life lessons to me than to my son when I read it to him. The book is called “Together is Better: A Little Book of Inspiration” by Simon Sinek.

“Life is a series of choices. Do we go left or right? Jump forward or hold back?

Sometimes our choices work out for the better…and sometimes they don’t. But there is one choice, regardless of every other decision, that profoundly affects how we feel about our journey: Do we go alone or do we go together?

It is the courageous few who ask for help. It is the giving few willing to help others. We can all find the courage we need and know the joy of service – the minute we learn that together is better.”

This book left me feeling so inspired so, listen in as I dive into topics like:

• What makes a true leader

In this week’s episode, I am joined by the award-winning stylist and educator Samantha Harman. She comes to talk to us today about her journey into the beauty industry and the struggles that came with it. Samantha also speaks about the impact that social media has had on the industry and how one can use it to grow as a stylist. She shares her early experience with Instagram and the tips that have helped her grow, such as maintaining consistency and building an alter ego while living up to it. Together, we also discuss the importance of balance, having time for ourselves, and being able to take a break. You don't want to miss it!
