    Stop Trying to Fit In - This Is How You Actually Stand Out Online | Charlotte Fulcher | Nail Industry Educator

    Send us a message ✨ In this episode, I’m joined by the amazing Charlotte Fulcher - nail artist, educator for The Nail Tech Org, and honestly… one of the most natural content creators I’ve come across. This Episode is Sponsored by Lash Oasis  Shop the full kit OR grab & try the Hybrid Korean Lash Lift Samples now for FREE.. Just USE THE CODE: KARIS  https://lashoasis.co.uk/products/the-one-portion-system-sample-pack-3pcs?variant=47502539456738 Charlotte’s journey is such a powerful one. From doing nails for her school friends, to working in the corporate world and civil service, to building her own business during COVID, this episode really shows what can happen when you actually go all in on yourself. What I love most about Charlotte’s story is how full circle it is… she once messaged Amy (the founder of the Nail Tech Org) saying she’d love to work for her one day.. and years later, Amy reached out to her to speak on a panel… which then led to her becoming one of just three educators for The Nail Tech Org. Honestly, proof that putting yourself out there matters. We also talk about identity, confidence, and not shrinking yourself to fit in. Charlotte opens up about how she used to hold herself back at school, and how she’s now fully stepped into who she is - bright, bold, creative, and completely unapologetic. But the main focus of this episode is content creation and this is where it gets so valuable. Charlotte shares: How she built a fully booked business through contentWhy authenticity is everything (and why overthinking is holding you back)How to actually connect with your audienceFinding your niche and speaking to the right people (not everyone)How she comes up with ideas and creates content that landsWhy being yourself is your biggest advantage onlineOne thing she said that really stuck with me: “The world wants you to fit in, but the universe wants you to stand out.” This episode will leave you feeling inspired, motivated, and probably rethinking how you’re showing up online. If you’ve ever struggled with content, confidence, or knowing how to stand out in a crowded industry… this one’s for you.

    I Was Fully Booked… Then My Health Stopped Everything | Samira Kaur

    Send us a message ✨ This episode really puts things into perspective. Because the truth is… we never think our health is going to stop us - until it does. And Samira’s story is a powerful reminder of just how quickly everything can change. This Episode is Sponsored by Lash Oasis Tired of your Korean Lash lifts taking too long? Shop the NEW Korean Hybrid system from Lash Oasis now: https://lashoasis.co.uk/ Use code: KARIS to grab your FREE sample 🛍️ Samira takes us right back to the beginning -  from her school days, where she never quite felt like she fit in, to chasing her dream of becoming an actress at drama school. She shares what it was really like navigating that time in her life, including the challenges she faced and how it shaped the person she is today… plus, the surreal moment she got to be an extra in Harry Potter and step inside Hogwarts 🤯 We then move into her journey into the beauty industry, where she found her true passion in lash lifts. Samira opens up about why she fell so deeply in love with the treatment, how she built a fully booked diary around it, and the challenges she had to overcome along the way. She also shares a moment where she decided to go back into employment.. only to leave after 3 days 🤭 A real, honest reminder that the grass isn’t always greener. But the heart of this episode is something much deeper. Samira bravely opens up about her diagnosis of an AVM, the symptoms she experienced while still working, and the reality of undergoing brain surgery. She shares what happened during the procedure, including experiencing a series of mini strokes, and speaks honestly about the mental and physical impact it has had on her life and recovery. This conversation is a real eye opener - a reminder that we often don’t think about our health until something forces us to, and how important it is to have things in place in our businesses and lives for the unexpected. We also touch on AI, future plans, upcoming courses, and what Samira’s goals look like moving forward. This episode is raw, honest, and incredibly inspiring.

    I Wish Someone Told Me This When I Started In The Beauty Industry

    Send us a message ✨ If I could go back to the very beginning of my beauty career… this is what I would tell myself. In this solo episode of Beyond the Tweezers, I’m getting honest about the lessons that actually shape you - the ones you don’t learn in a training manual. From struggling with confidence, comparing myself to others, and trying to be everything everyone else wanted… to learning how to trust my own voice, set boundaries, and build a business that truly feels aligned. I talk about: Why practice is the real key to progress (not perfection)Learning to be kinder to yourself in the early stagesThe danger of comparison and how to shift into inspiration insteadWhy being authentically YOU will always take you further than following trendsThe mindset shift from a book that completely changed how I thinkHow gratitude has transformed my daily perspective and energyWhy you need to stop waiting until you’re “ready” and just startHow mistakes are what actually build your confidenceThe importance of boundaries from the very beginningReal client experiences that taught me lessons the hard way (including losing money and people-pleasing)Why specialising in your niche is what helps you stand out and become knownThis episode is for anyone at the start of their journey, feeling overwhelmed, doubting themselves, or waiting for the “perfect time.” Because the truth is… there isn’t one.

In this solo episode of Beyond the Tweezers, I’m breaking down what actually turns a one time client into a lifetime client and it goes way beyond just the treatment itself. Because the truth is… clients don’t just stay because you’re good at what you do. They stay because of how you make them feel. From the moment they message you, to the way you greet them, the energy you bring into the room, and the experience you create - every single touch point matters. In this episode, I talk about: Why first impressions start from your messages (and how slow replies can cost you clients)How your energy can make or break a client’s experienceWhy clients should leave feeling uplifted -  not drainedThe importance of consultations and making clients feel truly listened toWhat your workspace says about your professionalism (even if you don’t realise it)Why comfort during treatments matters more than you thinkThe truth about retention vs client experienceWhy you should never let your effort slip with regular clientsI also share real experiences - both as a business owner and as a client -  to show you exactly what makes people stay… and what makes them leave. If you want to build a loyal client base, improve your retention and create an experience your clients genuinely look forward to, this episode will help you see exactly where you can improve. If customer service is something you feel like you struggle with, I also have an online webinar where I go deeper into this - covering client communication, handling complaints, and the small details that make a huge difference.

    Send us a message ✨ Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or burnt out in your business? This episode will show you why - and how to change it. This episode is sponsored by London Lash. A brand supporting lash artists with professional products, education, and tools. https://www.londonlashpro.com/?utm_source=podcastsponsorship&utm_medium=videos&utm_campaign=behindthetweezers&utm_content=episode7 Enjoy an exclusive listener discount: 20% off with code KARIS20 *T&Cs apply. Burnout doesn’t just affect your mind - it can show up in your body too. In this powerful episode, I sit down with business coach Marissa, who shares her personal experience with severe burnout that led to physical symptoms including painful eczema, lack of sleep, and being signed off work. After working 60+ hour weeks without boundaries, her body reached its limit. What happened next changed everything. Once she began setting boundaries in her business and listening to what her body was telling her, she started to heal from the inside out. This conversation felt especially close to home for me, as I’ve been experiencing my own skin rashes and hearing Marissa’s story made me realise how much our bodies can reflect what’s going on internally. ✨ FREE WORKSHEET: Marissa has created a powerful worksheet to help you recognise the signs of burnout, protect your boundaries, let go of fear, and use clear boundary-setting language in your business.

She is sharing her personal experience with burnout and what she has learned through her own journey. This episode is incredibly real and relatable  - especially if you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure in your business. ✨ In this episode, we cover: • Burnout symptoms (mental, emotional & physical) • How burnout can manifest in the body (including skin conditions) • How to overcome burnout and prevent it from happening again • How to recogonise the signs of burnout • Setting boundaries in your business (without guilt) • Imposter syndrome and why it isn’t logical • Understanding your gut instinct vs imposter syndrome  • Nervous system awareness and what your body is telling you • How to come from a place of ‘how can I’ • Building confidence in your business • Visualising your goals and stepping into the next level • Knowing your numbers and creating real change If you’re feeling burnt out, stuck, or disconnected from your business this episode will help you understand what’s really going on and how to move forward.
