    EP 3.27: From Salon Owner to Sleepless Nights: My Birth Story, Business and Becoming a Mom

    I’m so excited to be on the pod today sharing something really personal. As many of you know, I recently had my first baby, and life has been a beautiful blur ever since. As a salon owner, I’m used to juggling schedules, managing a team, and keeping everything running smoothly — but nothing prepared me for the wild ride of motherhood. In this episode, I’m opening up about my birth story, postpartum highs and lows, and how I’m navigating running a business with a newborn in the mix. I hope this episode resonates with other moms, business owners, or anyone figuring it out one day at a time. Grab your notebook and let’s get limitless!

    EP 3.25: Commission vs. Rental: What's Better for Today's Stylists?

    Today, we're covering a really hot topic in the salon industry — the ongoing conversation around booth rental versus commission-based salons. As a salon owner, I’ve seen both sides up close: the independence and flexibility of renting, and the structure, support, and growth that come with commission. Lately, there’s a growing trend of stylists rethinking the 'be your own boss' mindset and finding real value in employee-based careers. So if you're wondering which path is right for you, or if you’re just generally curious how the industry is shifting — this episode is for you. Grab your notebook and let’s get limitless!

    EP 3.23: Prebooking, Pricing and Retail That Doesn't Feel Gross

    Today we’re diving into something that so many stylists and salon owners struggle with— prebooking + retail + pricing. More specifically, how to make this happen without feeling like a pushy salesperson or a walking infomercial. Whether you’re running a commission-based salon or you’re working independently in a rental setup, this can feel awkward—unless you shift the mindset. In this episode, we’re breaking down how to make these three business builders feel natural, supportive, and totally not gross. Trust me, your clients actually want to know how to maintain their hair and this can be a really positive part of your service. Let’s talk about how to turn these conversations into client care moments that build trust and grow your income, without sacrificing your vibe.
