The Big Choice
We’re getting real this week and talking about the BIGGEST choice you’ll make in your career: going solo or starting as an employee. Learn the real metrics for knowing when you're truly ready to go solo, including the magic number of loyal clients you need and what your current employer's reaction to your departure should tell you. This no-holds-barred episode strips away the toxic positivity of "just follow your dreams" to reveal what it really takes to build a sustainable beauty business. Plus, we get our first FDA recall of the year, new skincare gadgets, and bad business behavior from the owner of Sugared + Bronzed. There’s also some important resources for those impacted by the Southern California wildfires. Be sure to visit our site for all the links.
