In this episode of The Lunchbucket Podcast, we meet salon owner and esthetician Lisa, who loves what she does for a living! Lisa talks about her daily routine and how much she enjoys providing services for her clients, who she considers her friends.

We hear Lisa’s story of building her own business while raising her son and how she has felt lucky all along the way. We also learn all about spray tans and get some solid skincare tips.

Of course we take a lunch break and get a peak into Lisa’s snack, er, lunchbucket 😂 And as always, we hope you enjoy the links/info this episode inspired (see below).

Love, Gail & Donna

Inspired to try a facial or one of the other services available at Lisa’s salon?

Are you a woman business owner like Lisa? (Or aspiring to be one?) Here are a couple of links to current grant opportunities:

Gail here – making a plug for a beautiful little business whose products I discovered on a trip to New Mexico last year - EastsideRemedios.

My uber-minimal skincare routine involves washing face and body with one of their soaps. This one for my face: Skin Tonic No. 4 Rose

To soften up crazy dry Central Oregon skin, I like one of their salves like this Prairie Salve.

Everything they make is simple, clean, and made in small batches with wild foraged and local ingredients. Love you, Eastside!

If you want to hear more vintage radio commercials like the one we played at the beginning of this podcast episode, check out the Old Radio World site - it’s cool!

Oh and here’s a link to a 1950’s TV ad for Camay Beauty Soap!

Lisa admitted that lunch is not really on her radar, although she does have a basket of snacks at the salon (above) for quick bites in between clients. She promises that she makes up for it with a wonderful dinner each evening.

And finally, Lisa has very fond memories of Hostess Fruit Pies from her teenage years (and who doesn’t)!
