    No Clients, No Plan B | Inspired by Ms Amber Red

    Send us a text There’s a side of tattooing that goes deeper than brows and lips — the kind that is soul healing💫 In this episode, we sit down with Jessica or rn_healthy_skin of Las Vegas, our newest renter specializing in paramedical tattooing and stretch mark camouflage with NuConceal. She opens up about what it’s really like to start over while taking the leap & quitting her 9-5 RN position and become a new paramedical artist — the fear, the doubt, and the quiet courage it takes to build something from scratch. Jessica shares how she mapped out her business for a slow and steady start, why she refuses to rush her growth, and how that patience became her power. You’ll hear her talk about the transformative results of NuConceal, how it blends seamlessly into scar tissue, and how she’s helping clients rewrite their confidence one session at a time. This episode isn’t just about camouflage tattooing — it’s about staying the course when the path feels uncertain, betting on your artistry, and building a career that heals people in more ways than one. 🎧 Listen now — because success in PMU isn’t always fast, but it’s always worth it.

Aubrie jumps in with her love for Google Sheets and how she used it in sales to keep track of follow-ups. Adrienne talks about how she uses Excel for inventory, client management, and finances. And of course, we end with a fun round of the programs we absolutely cannot live without—Sasha swears by Trello, Adrienne and Amber both love CapCut, while Aubrie shouts out ChatGPT and Canva. This episode is a mix of practical tools, business hacks, and real talk about what’s actually working for us behind the scenes.

    Realism to Paramedical Tattooing: Jeff Simon | Inspired by Ms Amber Red

    Send us a text On this episode of The Inspired Podcast, Ms Amber Red, Adrienne, Sasha, and our special guest Jeff Simon—owner of Novella Aesthetics—sit down for a real and inspiring conversation. Jeff has been in the tattoo industry for over 12 years, specializing in realism tattooing, but his journey took a powerful turn when his sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. That moment inspired him to pivot into paramedical tattooing—helping clients with scar camouflage, 3D areolas, nipple revisions, and stretch mark treatments. Alongside his wife Mandy (who manages the business and social media and is currently training to join him in the procedure room), Jeff has built Novella Aesthetics into a studio dedicated to restoring confidence and changing lives. In this episode, we get personal with Jeff about his life, his move to Las Vegas, what it’s like traveling between Washington and Nevada, and how he found his apprenticeship in paramedical tattooing. He shares his passion for the tattoo industry, his background in realism, and how it all connects to the work he’s doing today. Plus, we dive into the product he created—FlexaDerm, a medical-grade, sterile bandage designed to protect minor injuries from water and bacteria. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to transition from traditional tattooing into the world of paramedical tattooing, build a business with purpose, or hear from someone who’s using art to heal, this episode is for you. P.s. Jeff is looking to build his portfolio!
