Every salon owner faces it. A stylist you poured into, trained, and trusted walks out the door. So what do you do?

In this episode, Nick Mirabella breaks down exactly how to handle it when a stylist leaves your salon without letting it unravel your business or your mindset. From knowing when to let someone work their two weeks versus cutting them loose the same day, to spotting the red flags before the resignation even comes, Nick gives you the raw, real playbook that only comes from years in the chair and behind the owner's desk.

Nick also digs into The Four Agreements as a framework for leadership, why you should never badmouth a stylist who leaves, how to handle clients who call asking where their stylist went, and what your real job is as a salon owner when things get hard.
