Jen Baudier on Moving Past Dread and Entering Your Growth Zone

[259] Myths and self-limiting beliefs, i.e. "beliefs, world views or states of mind that limit you in some way that can be about you, other people or how the world operates", can hinder our progress and have us react in different ways: avoidance, dread, fight, flight or freeze responses, negative self-talk, etc.
In a dynamic conversation, creator/co-owner of Bella Style Salon and PIP University professor Jen Baudier highlights the importance of forward motion and doing things scared and shares her take on some of the most common myths in entrepreneurship.

Erin Raber on Pin-Up Curls’ Transformative Journey From Slow to Flywheel Growth

[257] Loyal clients are the people that bring in referrals, typically spend the most with you, help create an atmosphere in your salon, and build genuine connections with you and your team. But no matter how good your client retention strategies and numbers are, there are always people who will leave, voluntarily or not. That's why ensuring you attract a steady stream of new clients (however small) is important.
Featuring salon owner & educator Erin Raber (@theculturecurl) — and in a format ever so slightly different than usual — this episode will help you see how small but deliberate actions applied to a salon's marketing and retention strategies can reduce friction and yield better growth.

Maggie DiFalco on Planning a Smooth Exit and Succession for the Family Business

[256] Owner and leader Maggie DiFalco has invested over 25 years of her career to employing and mentoring young artists, giving back through charitable work and delivering outstanding guest experiences.

Hence, Jaclyn Gonzalez and Joe DiFalco have been steadily preparing themselves for the day their mother fully hands over the business ownership baton.
In a rare interview on the matter, hear all three family members describe their roles within Maggie's exit plan, share their opinion on the biggest threats to success, and discuss preserving relationships, letting go and stepping up.
