    Pour One Out for Ghost

    Hey everyone! It’s been a while since we’ve podcasted—I’ve got so many episodes I still need to upload! I’ve been busy living life, and sometimes we all need a break. This podcast has become part of my therapy now so it does more for me than for you I bet. This year, we’ve seen so many different versions of me, and my hair often reflects those phases. Sean jokes that I was nicer with certain hair when we were dating, but when we first met, I was also battling sobriety. We dive deep into topics like my avoidant attachment style, childhood neglect, and even the 90s eating disorder culture. But it’s all about processing, not blaming. We also chat about trauma, AA meetings, codependency, and, yes, even crying—though Fox and the Hound is the only thing that can make me cry (although Sean thinks Guardians of the Galaxy will also do it). Oh, and there’s a story about Sean setting our tent on fire while on vacation. What would you have done? You'll have to  listen to know! Lastly, RIP to Ghost the Guinea Pig—this episode is in his honor.

    In the Salon with, Britton

    In this episode, we’re hanging out in the salon lounge while Britton’s hair color processes. It’s a fun, laid-back chat with some special guests: Lili, Maggie, and Jorja. We spill the tea on the salon’s big launch party, the recent renovations, and—surprise!—an upcoming salon name change. Britton and I have grown so close over the years. I love having her in my chair and working on projects with her because she’s the ultimate girls' girl. And honestly, us girls—sorry, but we rule! We also dive into how much we enjoy collaborating with the amazing Ben Egelson. We chat about why I'm always updating and changing things around the salon. I mean, let's be real—if salons stop evolving, people stop coming. I even brought in secret shoppers to keep things fresh and get some feedback that we share in this episode. Britton, as one of my OG clients, shares her honest feedback on the podcast, especially on that awkward moment when clients stare during the shampoo! You won’t believe how many people do that instead of just closing their eyes. We get the team involved, too, sharing their own wild shampoo station stories. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one!

    Holiday Hair or Holiday Haters?

    What a few weeks it's been! This episode we dive into the pre holiday shit show that is the salon with our favorite salon manager, Maggie! We start off with the crazy ass week we had, including 2 bad reviews not are so wildly invalid we had to share. One of them my attorney is even involved, because you can have an opinion but you're not allowed to make shit up! In all my years in hair the one thing that remains consistent, is the holidays bring out the worst in people receiving services. And the best too! We have some of the absolute best clients, but this time of year the worst ones always find us, rotate back to us, or just suddenly become crazed. (or they ran out of salons to get kicked out of) IDK what it is about Sept - Dec that makes folks so inhospitable, trust me we always investigate and try to grow and learn from each interaction - but there is always at least one person we have to ask to not come back. This week is the precursor every year to the holidays. Two bad reviews from folks we haven't seen in 6 months or over a year. Then to add on top a cancelled concert, me backing out of an event, and people trying to start fights with me via text. Join us, as me and Maggie dissect whats happening and brace for whats coming!

    Monetizing Hate

    The theme this episode is how grumpy people are, especially on the internet; but real life too. And how the best I can do is monetize it, cause Sean is gonna be nice to you if he sees you out. And he always seems to see the biggest haters out and about. Todays hater he saw at the Hair Supply Store. We also have out first sponsors! Links and codes below  Today's trauma is also brought to you by boomer dads on vacation; and boomer moms reading your diary. Navigating childhood trauma is f**king yucky, but I discovered a new limiting belief all because when I was a teen my mom read my diary; and then punished me for what was in it. Spoiler alert, turns out it was normal teen stuff that I was lead to believe was actual psycho stuff haha  So remember, partners, if you see your partners haters out in the world, ignore.

    Family First, is Garbage Advice

    A little more about me, I was always the unwanted kid, but I was also always the aware kid. Words didn't often match the actions of adults around me, so here we are; with trust issues. Although, I am never wrong about a person. We dive a little politically deep here too, because I actually enjoy a healthy discourse. But most people can't even name the 3 branches of government, thus rarely know what they are talking about outside of headlines. It's frustrating, but not as frustrating as that presidential debate. Oof And as usual we take a mental health turn into my PTSD, reframing things to be more positive and tricking your brain into abundance aligned thinking rather than victim aligned.  Which brings us to peoples perspectives, espesh of other people, and heavily tattooed people like myself. From strangers to in laws it gets interesting here.

    We Didn't Hang Out for Weeks

    Ok it was only 3 weeks but it felt like forever. So here we are catching up I did a ton of travel, and I stand by Midwest folks are the nicest folks, none of this 'southern hospitality' stuff. Which also leads to, what is Ohio? does the midwest claim them, does the north east? Where do they go? Sean tried so hard to like Dune, so Chris would like him. He couldn't hack it though. And speaking of movies, I am DYING to see the new Inside Out movie, surprise its for adults. More so, adults in therapy haha  And finally, my favorite mental health discussion, personalities. I recently took an amazing course where we dove into business but first we dove into ourselves! I even shared a worksheet about my personality with my staff so they could get a better understanding of me, their ENTJ leader who has spent most of her life in Fight or Flight. A great well rounded episode as far as I am concerned.
