For this podcast session today, we are joined by two incredibly talented guests Demi who is a lash expert, and Rachel who is a brow technician. Together the two decided to combine their skills and start a salon and this is their story of how it all happened!
Key Takeaways
#1 Follow your heart
Societal pressure and stigma around certain things can prevent you from fulfilling your goals but in times like this hold on tight to your dreams. If you know what you are doing is right, have a solid plan to achieve your vision, don't stop. Start and keep going until you get there!
#2 Overcome challenges
Challenges are a part of life, we all have them. So don't let the hard times get to you and continue putting your energy into things that truly matter.

8:51-13:12
The stigma around beauty courses is real and who would know that better than someone in the beauty industry themselves?

Demi and Rachel share with us how they made this business partnership work given how collaborative work requires a lot of effort and often still doesn't end up working quite right

Inflation, covid, and increased cost of living. This segment is loaded with some real talk on finances and managing through tough economic times!
‘Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday.’ - Wilma Rudolph
