    Episode 136: Closing The Gaps: Recruiting, Onboarding and Advanced Education with Carrie Galpin

    Some careers unfold exactly as planned. Carrie Galpin's was peppered with the unexpected, and she wouldn't have it any other way. Her experiences have made her the industry icon she’s become today and a fierce advocate for training, development and long term success of the aesthetic specialty. From launching Sculptra in the HIV population in 2007 to expanding the Galderma Aesthetic Injector Network (GAIN) and supporting clinical educators, speakers, and trainers, Carrie has been in nearly every room that matters. Now she's building her own as the new CEO of TITAN Aesthetic, the recruiting and talent development company founded by Mary Beth Hagen a decade ago. This conversation is about what happens when experience, opportunity, and a willingness to start over all arrive at the same time. It's also about two things this industry desperately needs and rarely talks about honestly: a clearer path for injectors who want to enter or advance in aesthetics, and better systems for practices that struggle with hiring and continue wondering why. What You'll Learn: • Picking up the torch: How Carrie came to lead TITAN after a summer of unexpected transition, why she's approaching the role with a crawl-walk-run mentality, and what it means to inherit a business built by someone you deeply respect with that person staying on to mentor you through the first year • The talent pipeline problem: Why there is an abundance of education in aesthetics but almost no clear path from curious nurse to credible injector, and how that ambiguity costs practices, practitioners, and patients every single day • Screening as a superpower: What TITAN's assessment process actually evaluates, intangibles like grit, work ethic, cultural fit, and critical thinking, and why those transferable skills often predict success better than clinical experience alone • The onboarding gap nobody talks about: Why practices spend significant money recruiting and then hand a new hire a badge and wish them luck, and what it would look like if someone actually owned that handoff • See one, do one, teach one: The Johns Hopkins framework Carrie has carried throughout her entire career and why she believes it applies just as much to business development as it does to clinical training • Gratitude as a leadership strategy: How Carrie navigated one of the more uncertain chapters of her career, why she keeps coming back to gratitude as her anchor, and the advice she'd give anyone who finds themselves asking "what's next?" • What to expect from TITAN in the next 90 days: Screening and placement services for practices with candidates to evaluate, coaching for PAs, nurses and NPs curious about the aesthetic space, and the groundwork being laid for a much bigger 2027 • VASTOZ- a conference unlike anything the industry has seen: Carrie's other major project for 2026 is consulting on this intimate, advanced-level conference hosted by Dr. Yan Trokel at The Pierre Hotel in New York on November 13–14, 2026. One room. Eleven CE credits. Faculty from Brazil, Dubai, and the US, and a focus on what lives beyond toxins and fillers like regenerative medicine, the Y-loop technique, GLP-1 patient management, and the real next frontier of aesthetic medicine Quoteworthy Moments: "There is a significant number of opportunities out there, but because there's no clear path to competency and credibility, there's a lot of ambiguity in the marketplace. I'm a little Pollyanna about it, but I’m bound and determined to help create that clearer path." "Stay in a place of gratitude for all things, good and bad, because they are intended for you. And who you are is enough."

    Episode 135: Aesthetic Next Unfiltered: The Moments, The Lessons & What's Coming with Macy Robinson

    1,500 attendees. 116.75 CME credits. Over 200 sessions. A Secret Service detail that nobody saw coming. And a Saturday night dance floor that had everyone sweaty and still not ready to leave. Aesthetic Next 8.0 is in the books, and Dr. Tiphany sits down with Aesthetic Next Senior Events Manager, Macy Robinson, for a full debrief on what happened, what surprised them both, and what's already in motion for AN 9.0. The Lessons: This year felt different. K-beauty panels were standing room only—a sign that skincare has officially moved from afterthought to main event. Hormones, menopause, and peptides dominated the programming, with Lexi Yoo delivering a full-day dual session along with multiple panels and lectures. Hair made a major comeback. Advanced injection workshops replaced the basic demos of earlier years. And a strong, consistent message ran through multiple sessions: stop using adverse events as a social media strategy: it's scaring patients and hurting the industry. The Moments: The evenings were just as memorable as the sessions. True Biologix kicked off Thursday night with a block party, and the exhibit hall had everything from Xtresse's puppy park featuring adoptable shelter dogs (at least one found a forever home) to SkinSpirit's networking lounge, headshots and IVs. Friday's Nexties swapped the traditional awards show format for a full casino night, with craps, roulette, and Texas Hold 'Em tables alongside the award presentations. Congratulations to Delaney Poor, Olivia Salmon, Amy Birkenstam, Heather Zade, Leslie Fletcher, Merz, and Waseem Garbia & Erika Barry with Aesthetic Intel. Saturday's Studio AN 8.0 was, by all accounts, the best party in AN history!!! The outfits, the music, the dancing.....so good! Oh, and the RNC came to Dallas the same week, because of course they did, so the Secret Service showed up on day one. Plans changed and everyone rolled with it and lived to tell the tale. What's Coming: Looking ahead, AN 9.0 moves to the Lowe's Arlington Hotel and Convention Center on August 26–29, 2027, a new venue, a single-floor layout, and slightly earlier dates that should make life easier for East Coast attendees navigating back-to-school. Abstracts should open November 1, but check the AN instagram for actual availability. Exhibitor interest forms are live now at aestheticnext.com, and with nearly half of all attendees serving as owners or decisions makers, it's a great place to be for any brand! And if you missed AN 8.0, the virtual venue is available through March 15 for $600 including all sessions from the main 4 tracks and all CMEs included.

    Episode 134: Know When to Say No: Compliance, Licensing & Protecting Your Practice with Meika Mirabelli, JD, FNP-C

    We are well conditioned to think about what to do when an adverse event or bad outcome strikes. But do we think enough about what happens when the medical board walks in, the malpractice carrier finds a loophole, or a patient's attorney starts pulling the thread on everything that wasn't properly documented? Meika Mirabelli, JD, FNP-C is one of the industry's rarest voices: a practicing nurse practitioner, a licensed attorney, a former legal nurse consultant at a major South Florida malpractice law firm, and the founder of Maven Aesthetics Studio in Plantation, Florida. She has spent her career standing at the intersection of clinical skill and legal accountability, and she uses both fluently. She's also a mentor, a speaker, and the creator of the Injector Launch Lab, an online course designed to help new and aspiring injectors determine if this career is right for them before they spend the money, quit the hospital job, and figure it out the hard way. This episode covers a lot of ground, from the underrated lessons she learned watching her mother say no to bangs and bad haircut requests (yes, that's in here), to the real risks of injecting without understanding what your malpractice policy actually covers, to why she still doesn't prescribe peptides in her practice. It's one of the most practically useful compliance conversations the show has ever had, and it doesn't require a law degree to follow. What You'll Learn: • Training does not equal competence: The uncomfortable truth about weekend certification courses, why trainers rarely tell students what they're not going to know after two days, and what a new injector should actually be told at the end of a training class • What a medical director should actually be asking before delegating: The full checklist Meika walks through - clinical background, critical thinking indicators, ICU vs. nursing home experience, social media professionalism, LinkedIn presence—and why the totality of the package matters more than years of aesthetic experience • Malpractice insurance isn't just for the Practice: What a declaration page is, why you should ask to see your employer's before you start injecting, why your policy may not cover you if you switch practices or add a service you didn't disclose, and why the people most likely to not have coverage are the ones most likely to need it • The GFE problem and why medical directors aren't optional: Why the "I didn't know I needed one" defense doesn't work in front of a board, and why your medical director fee is not a cost. It's the price of protecting your license. • Why compliance isn't sexy, and how to make yourself care anyway: Her honest answer to why the industry keeps ignoring the legal foundation it's built on, and why the "it won't happen to me" mentality is exactly what the malpractice attorneys she used to work for were waiting for • Injector Launch Lab: What's inside the course: compliance, anatomy, complications, business checklists, LinkedIn templates, a 90-day launch plan, resume templates, and a first module designed to help you decide if this is even the right career before you spend another dollar on training Quoteworthy Moments: "Nurses, you have the right to interview your employer. Ask about malpractice coverage. Ask about the medical director. Ask to see the declaration page. If they make you feel bad for asking, that tells you everything you need to know." "Compliance isn't sexy. It doesn't bring patients in. It doesn't produce revenue. And most people don't know they need it until they're sitting in front of a board that's asking for the thing they don't have."

    Episode 133: The Flawless Formula: Luxury, Loyalty & the Patient Experience with Lindsay Bright, FNP-C

    Some practices make you feel like a patient. Some make you feel like a number. And then there's Flawless Aesthetics in Chattanooga, Tennessee—where you walk in to a signature scent, a glass of champagne, a massage chair, and a front desk team who already knows your name. Lindsay Bright, FNP-C is the founder of Flawless Aesthetics, a five-time Best Injector in America honoree, national trainer for multiple brands, and one of the most compelling brand builders in the industry. She didn't come from money or business school. She came from plastic surgery offices where her ideas kept getting shut down—until her husband finally said, "You know what you want. Just go do it." Two weeks later, she was injecting out of a hair salon closet. Two years later, she was in a 7,000-square-foot practice with a thriving business. This episode is a masterclass in what it actually means to build a luxury brand from the inside out—from hiring philosophy and handwritten patient letters to the new Flawless Formula, a six-month comprehensive treatment planning model that is quietly transforming how her practice retains and reconnects with patients. And as a special bonus, her 12-year-old daughter Eva joins the conversation to talk about Lil’ Flawless and Skintuition, her two skincare lines for tweens and teens—and what she's already learning about entrepreneurship, loyalty, and showing up even when you don't feel like it. What You'll Learn: • The vision she created: How Lindsay spent years envisioning the practice she wanted—the champagne, the chandeliers, the signature scent, the whole feel of it—and finally stopped waiting for permission and opened her own practice in two weeks flat • The front desk is the most important hire you'll ever make: Why Lindsay pays her front desk team exceptionally well, protects them fiercely, and credits them as the first and most critical point of the luxury patient experience—and why most practices dramatically undervalue this role • Love on the patients you have: The year-one-to-two mindset shift from "I need more patients" to "I need to know the ones I have"—and how slowing down, increasing room time, and genuinely getting to know patients transformed the business • The Flawless Formula: Lindsay's newly launched six-month comprehensive patient check-in model that revisits treatment plans, checks in on what's working and what isn't, and creates the kind of ongoing dialogue that stops patients from quietly leaving for someone else without ever saying why • Building culture before building locations: Why Lindsay delayed opening her third location in Knoxville for months—not because she didn't have the space or the demand, but because she hadn't found the right people who truly embodied the Flawless culture yet • Hire smarter people and listen to them: The hiring philosophy Lindsay adopted early—find people who know things you don't, give them a seat at the table, and actually listen when they bring ideas—and how that approach has kept most of her original staff through five years of growth Special guest & Lindsay's daughter, Eva Bright, Founder of Lil' Flawless & Skintuition, also joins us! At 12 years old, Eva has already launched two skincare lines. Lil' Flawless is a gentle, age-appropriate routine designed for tweens and younger teens who want to care for their skin without overwhelming it. Skintuition is her second line—stronger and targeted for acne-prone teen skin. Eva designed the packaging, helped develop the formulations, and handles her own social media content. She's proof that the entrepreneurial spirit can manifest at any age, and she talks about the lessons she's learning from Mom & Dad and the challenges that come with managing 2 skincare lines.

    Episode 132: The Catalyst for Growth: Inside the Business of Aesthetics with Chris Murray

    Chris Murray has been in almost every room that matters in this industry. Galderma. Revision Skincare. Platinum Dermatology Partners. And now—after more than a decade of building other people's businesses, launching private label lines, managing 432 providers across 125 locations, and quietly answering every call on the first ring—he's building his own. Catalyst Aesthetic Advisors is the business Chris has been talking about starting for years. The concept is as simple as it is rare: a “talent agency model” for aesthetics that doesn't sell you a playbook, a software, or a marketing package. It sells you a result. You tell him where you want to go, grow revenue, scale locations, exit, or bring a big idea to life, and he diagnoses what you actually need, finds the right people to execute it, and stays in the room until it's done. This is a conversation about what you learn when you've stood on every side of this industry. What practices get wrong about vendors. What vendors get wrong about practices. Why the million-dollar ceiling exists. Why private equity isn't the threat people think it is. And why the Forrest Gump of aesthetics might be exactly who your practice needs to call. What You'll Learn: • The CAA model for aesthetics: Why Chris modeled Catalyst after Creative Artists Agency—the talent agency that revolutionized Hollywood by packaging talent instead of producing content—and how that same idea translates to packaging the right consultants, operators, and experts around a practice's specific goal • Four reasons to call Catalyst: Grow revenue, scale and add locations, exit the practice, or develop a big idea, and why knowing which one you need changes everything about the path forward • Diagnose, assess, refer, execute: The operational model behind Catalyst, and why "execute" is the differentiator—not the diagnosis or the referral, but staying in the room until the result is done • The 30,000-foot view problem: Why most practice owners are stuck at 10 feet (survival mode, day-to-day) with no one operating at 20,000 feet, translating between the board level and the treatment room, and why that gap costs more than any single expense line on the P&L • Stop carrying everything: Why focusing on two or three vendor partners and giving them preferential treatment results in better pricing, more samples, more training support, and less panic at the end of every quarter • The private label reality check: When private label makes sense, when it doesn't, why volume equals price, and what it actually takes to build a custom formulation versus just putting your name on someone else's product • Five ways to grow an aesthetic practice, and new patients is only one: Why retention, cross-selling, increased visit frequency, e-commerce, and membership are all being left on the table while practices pour money into lead acquisition • When to expand: Don't even think about a second location until you're hitting $1.4 per provider and $1 million in EBITDA in year one. Get your house in order first. Expanding chaos is just more chaos. Quoteworthy Moments: "Hope is not a strategy. That's a T-shirt I wear constantly. And it is what most marketing plans in aesthetics are built on." "There's no litmus test for how well a practice is doing. I've shown someone their books and said, 'Do you realize how good you're doing?' They had no idea. You can't go from a B-plus to an A-minus without knowing what a B-plus looks like first."

    Episode 131: Value Over Visibility: How to Build a Name in Aesthetics with Amanda Strunk

    Everyone wants visibility, but what have you built that brings enough value to get you noticed? In this episode of For The Record, Dr. Tiphany Hall sits down with Amanda Strunk, third-generation owner and publisher of Dermascope Magazine, to talk about what it really takes to build credibility, earn opportunities, and create a name that lasts in aesthetics. After growing up in the professional skin care industry and working her way through nearly every department of the family business, Amanda has helped evolve Dermascope from a traditional print publication into a multi-platform educational resource while protecting the mission that has guided the brand for more than 50 years: raising the standards of aesthetics through trusted education. And after reviewing countless contributors, educators, experts, and emerging industry voices, Amanda has a unique perspective on what separates the people who simply want exposure from the people who become respected thought leaders. Her advice? Focus on your value before your visibility. What separates the ones who last from the ones who disappear after one conference appearance? It's not their follower count. It's not their lighting setup. It's value—deep, specific, earned, credential-backed value—and the consistency to keep showing up once they've built it. This is one of those episodes that's equal parts career coaching, industry history, and a gentle but firm reminder that there are no shortcuts to becoming someone this industry actually trusts. What You'll Learn: • Value before visibility: Why building your expertise, credentials, and niche must come before anyone starts putting you on stages or magazine covers—and why the people who skip that step disappear just as fast as they arrived • Finding your niche: Why trying to talk about everything means you're known for nothing—and how to identify the one topic you could discuss in your sleep, unprompted, forever • The difference between knowing and teaching: Why some of the most knowledgeable people in this industry are terrible educators, and why the ability to take complex science and make it digestible is a skill worth developing separately from clinical expertise • Consistency as a career strategy: Why Dermascope loses more contributors to disappearance than to disqualification—people raise their hand, get one shot, and then vanish—and what showing up repeatedly does for your visibility over time • Brand-driven vs. education-driven content: How to recognize when an article or speaker is selling a product versus genuinely teaching—and why readers increasingly need to do their own due diligence before trusting what they consume • The influencer paradox: Why the best influencers are actually skilled educators who happen to be magnetic on camera—and why credentialed practitioners who dismiss them are missing the point while their patients are taking notes • Trade shows as community, not commerce: Why the future of in-person events isn't the booth floor—it's the conversations between sessions, the theme nights you hate until you get there, and the relationships that don't happen on Instagram no matter how many times you follow each other Quoteworthy Moments "Value over visibility. Focus on your value before your visibility. So many people want to be an influencer before they've built anything worth following. Find your value, grow your credentials, and the visibility will come naturally." "Anybody can educate, but can you actually teach? You can have 20 years in the industry, but if you can't take what you know and make someone else understand it—in print, on stage, in a treatment room—then that knowledge stops with you."

    Episode 130: The Operator Gap: Data Intelligence, Practice Growth & Building Enterprise Value with Cameron Hemphill

    Cameron Hemphill is back for another round—and this time, he's coming at you from the other side of an exit. Most people in this industry know Cameron as the founder of Growth99, the marketing and CRM platform that he bootstrapped to over 1,000 aesthetic practices before successfully exiting in 2024. What happens after you build something like that, hand it off, and try to sit still for two weeks? You start looking under the hood of other people's businesses and realizing the same gap exists everywhere: practices that are doing well, that have brand equity, that have loyal patients—and that are leaving enormous amounts of money on the table because nobody is running the business like a business. That's the thesis Cameron has been living for the past 48 weeks. He took on one practice owner after his exit—not to run campaigns, but to sit at the data, build command centers, engineer compensation models, rethink marketing ratios, and do what he calls "operator work." The result: her revenue has nearly doubled. Not by adding locations. Not by buying a new laser. By fixing the operational gaps that were invisible because nobody had the time to look for them. This episode is part post-exit debrief, part business school, and part honest conversation about why the million-dollar plateau exists, what delayed gratification actually requires, and why AI is simultaneously overhyped and underutilized in the same breath. What You'll Learn: • The operator gap: Why every aesthetic practice above a certain size desperately needs someone whose only job is to sit at the data, look at the math, and make decisions based on what the numbers actually say—not what it feels like is happening • The math behind the ceiling: What Cameron found when he looked under the hood of that first post-exit client—marketing-to-revenue ratio off, average ticket below benchmark, RPH below threshold, utilization too low—and how tweaking those numbers without changing anything else doubled revenue in under a year • Marketing vs. operational problems: Why most practices think they have a marketing problem when they actually have an operational revenue leak—and how to tell the difference before spending another dollar on ads • The million-dollar plateau: Why the $100K/month mark is where practices stall, what's happening psychologically and operationally when they hit that ceiling, and why cracking through it requires delayed gratification most providers aren't willing to practice • Post-patient automation as a retention engine: Why the follow-up after the visit is where most practices completely fall apart, how building service-specific post-treatment funnels drives measurable lifts in rebooking rates, and why asking for the next appointment is the simplest thing nobody does • CRM as operating system, not email tool: Why a CRM is no longer optional, how the pre-booking funnel and post-patient follow-up should connect seamlessly to your EMR, and why the leads that sit in a spreadsheet while the front desk is busy are the most expensive leads you'll ever acquire • The ICP problem: Why practices that try to serve everyone serve no one, why it's okay to say no and refer out patients who don't fit your model Quoteworthy Moments: "Patients can smell b******t. You have to be honest with them, tried and true to who you are, and put them on a real journey. Give me the treatment plan. Give me the protocol. Give me the roadmap. I don't want to make that decision myself—I make enough decisions all day long." "It's not just tracking metrics—it's knowing what the metrics mean against a benchmark. Feeling busy means nothing. Feeling like you're growing means nothing. Show me the utilization rate."

    Episode 129: Clean Books. Strong Culture: The Path to Practice Profitability with Terri Ross

    Some guests you schedule because they're timely. Some you schedule because they're iconic. Terri Ross falls firmly in the second category! Terri Ross is the founder of Terri Ross Consulting, co-creator of the 4S Summit, former managing partner of a Beverly Hills med spa she scaled and sold to SkinSpirit, and one of the most respected voices in aesthetic business consulting in the country. She's worked with over 2,000 practices, launched industry accreditation frameworks, consulted for PE-backed groups, and helped practice owners add hundreds of thousands (sometimes millions) of dollars to their bottom line. This conversation is equal parts business school and tough love. Terri doesn't sugarcoat. She doesn't celebrate mediocrity. And she is not here for burying your head in the sand when things get tough. What she is here for is helping practice owners finally bridge the gap between clinical excellence and business excellence. What You'll Learn: • Clinical craft alone is not enough: Why being a great injector or surgeon used to be sufficient and why it categorically isn't in today's commoditized, hyper-competitive landscape and what you have to build instead • The pillars that determine practice health: The consistent gaps Terri finds in every practice audit, from P&L mapping and pricing strategy to compensation models, profit margins, and sales capability, regardless of whether the practice has been open one year or thirty • Revenue per hour as a non-negotiable KPI: Why providers who don't know their RPH can't set meaningful goals, can't identify inefficiency, and can't make informed decisions about how they spend their time • The retention crisis hiding in plain sight: Why 52% of aesthetic patients don't come back, and why chasing new leads while ignoring that number is the most expensive mistake a practice can make • Gross margins and pricing strategy: Why you must know your gross profit before you run a single promotion or you may be actively losing money on your best-selling service • The 45% follow-up gap: Almost half of all aesthetic patients are never followed up with after their appointment, and what that silence costs in lifetime value, referrals, and rebooking rates that compound quietly over years • Why compensation models break practices: The single most common structural mistake Terri finds and how wrong commission structures incentivize the wrong behaviors, and why fixing it changes everything downstream • The consultation is emotional, the money is logic: How to stop leading with procedures and start listening for the emotional driver behind every visit, and why the providers who master that skill consistently outperform those who don't, regardless of clinical skill level • Treating your business like you're going to sell it: Why P&L clarity and team culture are the two things any buyer, PE or otherwise, will look at first, and why "someone will buy my business eventually" without both is a fantasy • The Private Equity effect: Why PE firms are brilliant at business infrastructure but don't always understand what makes an aesthetic practice unique: an irreplaceable patient experience Quoteworthy Moments: "Hope is not a winning strategy in this industry. We're just hoping they rebook, hoping they convert, hoping they tell their friends. Come on. Stop hoping and start building the system." "Treat your business like you're going to sell it from day one. Clean books. Strong culture. If those two things aren't there, there's no business to sell—no matter what the top line looks like."
