    Why So Many Successful Owners Are Burning Out

    On this week's episode of Running a Little Late, Jena draws on her article, recently published in the Feb 2026 issue of Professional Beauty . She explores her own experiences with burnout and nervous system dysregulation as a salon owner and offers practical guidance and actionable insights on how to begin leading from a place of empowerment. If you're a leader or salon/spa owner experiencing dysregulation and burnout in your own business, Jena invites you to reach out or schedule a complimentary clarity call to discuss how working together can help restructure how you are leading. If you are marketing and advertising your salon or spa using social media and it's quietly becoming your second full time job, Jena recommends exploring Hootsuite- a software that helps you streamline your social media across all platforms, so you have more time to focus on running your business and less time managing social media from your phone.

    What No One Tells You About Opening A Salon

    Opening my first salon didn’t start with a business plan or investors, it started with a walk around the block, a “For Rent” sign, and a whole lot of confidence I hadn’t yet earned. In this first episode, I share the story of opening my very first salon in the United States and the lessons I learned the hard way; from underestimating costs, to doing everything myself, to pushing through the discomfort and starting small. This episode isn’t about regret. It’s about context. About the things we don’t know yet and how not knowing them sometimes gives us the courage to begin. If you’re a salon, spa, or wellness professional navigating growth or just beginning, this conversation is for you. Jena Berenberg is a licensed Esthetician, artist, speaker, published writer, former multi-business owner and leadership coach for salon, spa and wellness professionals.
