The Sustainable Stylist Podcast is for independent hairstylists who are tired of being told that a full book is the finish line. Hosted by Jen, a hairstylist with over thirteen years behind the chair who went independent in 2018 and learned the hard way, through undercharging, overworking, and figuring it out with no roadmap, this show goes beyond hair. Each episode blends real business strategy, mindset, and holistic wellness to help independent stylists build a career that is not just busy, but actually sustainable and profitable. If you are booked solid and still feel broke, this is the podcast that finally hands you the roadmap nobody gave you.

    Episode 1: My “Magic Number” for a 3-Day Workweek + $100K+ Without Burnout

    Send us Fan Mail The Sustainable Stylist Ep. 1: My “Magic Number” for a 3-Day Workweek + $100K+ Without Burnout Jen Alden introduces her new podcast, The Sustainable Stylist, sharing her 13-year journey in the hair industry, the burnout and financial stress that made her consider quitting, and the epiphany that led her to change how she ran her business. She explains how she set a $100,000 annual income goal, reverse engineered it into a weekly and daily target, and then structured her pricing around that “magic number,” taking small steps until she reached over $100K and closer to $150K. Jen emphasizes setting pricing based on personal life costs and goals rather than comparing to others, and she discusses choosing a sustainable schedule—three full workdays a week—to reduce anxiety and avoid overbooking. She invites listeners to download her free guide and submit topics and questions for future episodes. 00:00 Welcome to the Show 00:40 Why I Started This 01:03 From Burnout to Clarity 01:55 Exploring Education Online 02:47 Money Goals and Reverse Math 04:25 Three Day Workweek Plan 05:59 Pricing with Your Magic Number 07:09 Budget for a Better Life 08:03 Schedule Boundaries and Anxiety 09:00 Download the Guide and Next Steps 09:39 Wrap Up and Goodbye Get the FREE SalonSchedule Audit: https://www.theholistichairstylist.com/salon-schedule-reset-free-guide Questions?
