In this episode, I’m joined by Jaynee Meyer (@jayneenailedit) for a real and refreshing conversation all about the F word—finances. We’re breaking down the basics of managing your finances as an independent beauty professional—how to keep track of income and expenses, stay prepared for taxes, actually pay yourself, and use your profits to invest back into your business or personal goals. Whether numbers overwhelm you or you’re ready to level up your money mindset, this one’s packed with insight and encouragement to get confident with your finances.
In this episode, I’m chatting with Morgan Tucker about her journey from doing nails out of her home to opening Luxe—a beautiful studio space that’s now home to 16 other nail techs. We talk about what it’s really like to make big moves in your business, how to push past doubt, and why believing in yourself is such a huge part of growing something bigger. Morgan shares so many honest insights about stepping into leadership and creating a space that supports other beauty pros. If you’ve ever dreamed of leveling up your business, this one’s for you.
