So Many Actionable Ideas

I have been listening to Beyond the Technique for years and love what this show offers!! Katie is always having relevant conversations about where the beauty industry is right in the moment and what we need to be thinking of to prepare for the future. Not only does she present the topic, but she gives actionable steps to take. I love the broad range of topics and look forward to listening every week!

Favorite podcast

This podcast is my favorite all time podcast. Kati’s voice is so soothing to listen to. Every topic she talks about with her guests are relevant topics. They are exactly what we want to hear and exactly what we need to hear. I do not do hair but I run a salon and finding salon oriented podcasts that dive into the business side of the salon, without being outdated in their approach. I cannot recommend this podcast enough!!
