No target is too small. Having said that…Do you start right away & start where you’re at, OR are you waiting for the circumstance to be perfect before you even start? Let’s just be honest; we are all guilty of waiting for the circumstances to be “perfect” before we start a project sometimes. It's really easy to create stories or excuses about why you’re not doing something. But the truth is, you have to be MORE than what you’re doing. You have to continue to put yourself in uncomfortable sit...

Welcome to The Big Money Stylist Podcast! Just because you’re good at hair doesn’t mean you're an educator, and even then you should STILL be continuing your education!

You might be taking a ton of different certification courses, but actually continuing your education is a little different because you can really dive into your craft & perfect every little th...

Why did you choose to go to hair school? What is the driving force behind the things that you do? When you go to hair school, you are taught to do hair and really nothing else.

Unfortunately, there are NO shortcuts to success. Consistency can get you SO far. We’ve said it a million times & we will likely tell you a million MORE times that the small consistencies will make all the difference. There are going to be times when you fall out of your habit & consistency, and that is OKAY. The biggest thing you want to do is make that choice that you're going to jump right back in. Just do it. Perfection does not exist. Progress exists. You’re always wanting to strive...

To grow, you have to LEAP! Are you committed? Do you see the vision? First things first, you have to believe in yourself. You know you can do it. You have ALL the tools you need. Sometimes things can be scary, but you have to dig deep & remember why you committed to something in the first place & just take the leap. As an Artist, you’re told that you have to take any and all of the clients. You are told you’re lucky to even have them in your chair. The reality is you are the prize. That ...

Just to start this out on the right foot - If you have hair & your hair is done, you don’t need anything else. Shifting mindset… What does that mean to you? What does commitment mean to you? Do you think that they correlate? If you can’t commit to YOURSELF how are you supposed to commit to anything else? Most days you probably don’t want to commit to what you originally committed to, THOSE are the moments where you really figure out who you are. When you figure out how committed you are to y...

Being humble… Artists are notorious for having an ego about their art. Which is understandable, to a point, you worked really hard to produce what you’re putting out! HOWEVER, you don’t want your ego to ever get SO big that you’re not open to growth & feedback. You’re NEVER too good to learn & grow. Ask yourself this, when is the last time you looked at your work? Really looked at your work & thought, “what can I do to get better? What can I do to improve?” It's okay to want more. Yo...
