Real talk. Real stories. Real solutions to get estheticians and sole proprietors to six figures and beyond without burning out. Why make your own mistakes when you can learn from two solopreneurs on your journey to six figures? Skinfessional started from the idea that there needs to be more honesty about the real struggles, mistakes, and flat out failures that happen when you build a spa or salon business. 12-hour days? Non-existent self-care? Crazy barnacle clients? We’ve been there and lived to tell the tale. Everyone wants an overnight success, but the reality is that being an entrepreneur boils down to lessons learned and being persistent AF. We’re pulling back the curtain and giving you an all access pass to how this spa owner and wellness excerpt do it so you can too. Grab your journal and trusty mechanical pencil (because you want to take notes) and join Cybil Solyn and Alex Ellis as we confess all our Skinfessional secrets.

Real talk for beauty/wellness businesses

I listen to loads of business podcasts in general and specific to my industry (esthetician). Skinfessional is the ONLY one giving real business advice with a doses of humanity sprinkled in. Showing up this way through the COVID shut down is incredible. Thank you!

Review Update:

Continuing to LOVE this Beauty industry podcast for it’s refreshingly real, grounded advice. Esthy’s, quit wasting your time listening to those other podcasts that are all egoic puff and fluff and let this dynamic duo’s wisdom seep into your being. The success that follows will be way more sustainable than chasing shiny objects will ever get you.
