  • I Can't Let You Guys Have All Of The Fun 😏

    After nearly a year away from the mic, I’m back and I’m sharing a decision many coaches quietly avoid talking about.

    In this episode, I explain why, in 2026, I’m intentionally returning to the service provider role and getting back in the brow chair one to two days a week- not as a step backward, but as a strategic move forward.

    I share what time away gave me clarity on, why proximity to the work matters more than ever in a rapidly changing beauty industry, and how staying close to real client behavior sharpens leadership, strategy, and long-term leverage.

    This episode sets the foundation for what this podcast will be moving forward: fewer things done better, long-form conversations, real-time data, and decisions rooted in sustainability not optics.

    If you’re a service-based business owner who values integrity, clarity, and building something that actually lasts, this episode is for you.

     

    This episode kicks off a new chapter of the podcast, including an upcoming series:

    “11 Things I’ll Teach You From 11 Years in the Industry (That Have Nothing to Do With Social Media)”

    Real lessons. Real data. No trends, just what actually compounds over time.

        • Premium Pricing: The Secret to Thriving, Not Just Surviving, in the Beauty Industry

          Breaking a beauty industry taboo today....

          I'm presenting the case for charging premium prices and why this should be everyone's goal. 

          We’re unlocking the transformative power of premium pricing for lash and brow artists and salon owners. Learn why pricing is more than just numbers—it’s a strategy for long-term success and alignment with your ideal clients. Inspired by Alex Hormozi’s $100M Offers, I’ll explain how the virtuous cycle of premium pricing can elevate your business and why it’s not just a smart move but an ethical one too.

          What You’ll Learn:

          • The definition and philosophy behind premium pricing.
          • Why pricing impacts more than just your profitability—it shapes your brand and client experience.
          • How premium pricing aligns you with clients who value quality over cost.
          • The dangers of underpricing, as explained by Hormozi's vicious cycle of low pricing.

              • Are You Proud of Your Business Yet?

                Welcome to the first episode of 2025 on Lash and Legacy! We’re kicking off the year with an incredibly raw and honest episode featuring a real coaching session with one of my clients. This isn’t just another business chat—it’s an intimate glimpse into the mindset shifts and challenges that come with running a beauty business.

                In this episode, we discuss:

                • The importance of being proud of the business you’re building and giving yourself grace through the process.
                • How your business can serve as a mirror, reflecting limiting beliefs and helping you grow.
                • Why throwing things at the wall to see what sticks only works to a point—and when it’s time to shift gears.
                • The power of blending mindset work with business strategy for lasting success.
                • How discomfort in growth can be used as fuel to take meaningful action.
                •  

                  What You’ll Hear:

                  You’ll listen to a vulnerable, relatable moment from a coaching call where my client shares her feelings about not operating at her fullest potential. Her words will resonate deeply if you’ve ever felt stuck or frustrated in your business.

                  We also discuss how many high-achieving women feel challenged when they begin working with a coach—and why that’s a good thing. Growth is uncomfortable, but having someone to guide you through it can make all the difference.

                  This episode is packed with insights to help you reflect on your own journey. Are you leaning into your potential? Are you proud of the business you’re creating?

                  Key Takeaways:

                  1. Your Business Reflects You: By addressing your limiting beliefs and mindset blocks, you can gain clarity and develop strategies that align with your goals.
                  2. The End of Trial-and-Error: While experimenting in the early stages is valuable, growth requires intention and strategy.
                  3. Mindset + Strategy = Success: Your mindset and strategy should work together to create sustainable, fulfilling results.
                  4. Discomfort Fuels Growth: Growth isn’t easy, but channeling that discomfort into action is where transformation happens.

                      • How To Not Pick the Wrong Goals To Go After in 2025

                        One of my favorite decision making processes goes like this: identify what didn't work, learn from that, don't do it again.

                         

                        It may seem simple, but when it comes to setting and chasing goals, there are a lot of ways it goes wrong, then we give up and sit in the feeling of failure. 

                         

                        I don't want you to do that in 2025. 

                         

                        While dreaming big is exciting, aligning your goals with your vision, values, and long-term success is essential.

                         

                        In this episode, discover why doing less—but better—leads to faster progress and how clarity in your goals creates momentum. I share personal insights from my journey as a high-achieving entrepreneur and break down a practical, aligned goal-setting process rooted in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) to help you move into the new year with intention and focus.

                        This episode also tackles common mindset blocks around goal-setting—like comparison, fear of failure, and all-or-nothing thinking—so you can overcome them and stay on track toward your vision.

                        What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

                        • Why setting the right goals is more important than setting more goals
                        • How to identify and release what’s no longer serving you
                        • The connection between clarity, focus, and momentum in achieving your dreams
                        • How to break big goals into actionable steps you can confidently take
                        • Five common mindset traps that sabotage goal-setting—and how to shift those limiting thoughts
