When you start something new… How do you feel when you do?

Are you an expert? Do you know exactly what you’re doing? Do you feel confident & comfortable?

How about your support system?

What’s funny is when we start hair school, we understand that we are NOT experts. We give ourselves grace because we know we are starting something new.

How is that not the case when we are starting something else??? We forget that we are starting something new, and we forget to give ourselves grace.

Let’s talk about being an expert… can you actually become an expert at something when you are offering every service imaginable?

A misconception is that you actually have to be good at everything.

Something that is not commonly taught is that it is easier to be an expert at something when you pick ONE thing.

Do you know what else is a common misconception… to be a successful hairstylist, you have to have a big salon with lots of stylists.

You can easily run a successful salon with only a few hair stylists if you know your numbers.

Not only that, remember that your clients will pay you double if you can go faster if you can give them the outcome they are looking for, AND if the overall experience is better.

What is the outcome you’re looking for?

Once you figure out what that is, you want to reverse engineer it to really figure out HOW to get where you want.

So STOP complaining about working holidays, stop overworking yourself & position yourself as the prize. It is a privilege to be doing what you’re doing and to be able to give people something they couldn't get anywhere else.

Put yourself out there & do the things that are hard.

THEN you will be able to really have the life you want. Nothing worth having comes easy.

You have to fight for it. You have to find value in yourself FIRST.

Anyone can put a post on Instagram, but not everyone can really double down & do the work.

What is the outcome you’re looking for?
