68: Karen Geiszler: Empowering Beauty Professionals Through KG Beauty Modality Training
Welcome to another episode of "Confessions of a #Beauty Boss," hosted by Angela Sanchez. In this episode, we have a special guest, Karen Geiszler, a prominent figure in the beauty and aesthetics industry. Karen is not only an accomplished Clinical Educator but also the visionary founder of KG Beauty Modality Training. Karen's remarkable journey in the hair and beauty industry, which began back in 1986, has spanned over three decades, and her extensive expertise includes roles as a beauty therapist, hairdresser, laser and IPL practitioner, and trainer. Her story takes an exciting turn when she decided to relocate to Queensland in 2004, selling her thriving clinics in southern Sydney to create a new venture. Nestled on a picturesque 12-acre property between Harvey Bay and Bundaberg, Karen established the renowned Karen Geiszler Hair and Beauty Laser and IPL clinic, realizing her dream of achieving a work-life balance. But Karen's journey doesn't stop there. Fueled by a desire to give back to the industry that had brought her immense joy, she embarked on a mission in 2006 to obtain training qualifications. She recognized the challenges faced by sole operators and businesses in regional areas, often having to leave their clinics for training, incurring additional expenses for travel and accommodation. It was this realization that gave birth to KG Beauty and Modality Training, a groundbreaking concept that brings customized training right to the doorstep of your clinic. Karen travels to both city and regional locations across Australia, minimizing business disruption and saving valuable resources that would typically be spent on travel and accommodation. Karen's passion for sharing her knowledge with fellow therapists, especially those in regional areas, shines through her work. Her unwavering commitment to excellence earned her recognition as a finalist in two prestigious categories at the 2021 Australian Beauty Industry Awards: Educator of the Year (individual) and Sole Operator of the Year. In this podcast episode, Angela Sanchez delves deep into Karen's journey, discussing the significance of investing in skill advancement and the due diligence required when selecting a trainer. Karen proudly showcases her extensive qualifications and certifications, providing peace of mind to all seeking her expertise. Karen's ultimate goal is to form partnerships through personalized, in-clinic training, empowering and inspiring every unique therapist to elevate their skills and reach new heights.
