- 0:24think, babe. All clients come to you because they want to feel like a million dollars. And
- 0:27so it's our gift to be able to have them spend as
- 0:31much as they can so that they get the feeling they actually came
- 0:34to our salon for. And you can be like, yuck, Blithe, that feels so manipulative and

- 0:50is the new standard. I'm Blythe Lankford, and in

- 0:57insights that helped me transform my three salons into
- 1:00seven-figure businesses in under 12 months. If you're ready
- 1:04to step into your power and grow your
- 1:07wealth and be part of a movement that's changing the game
- 1:10globally, then babe, you're in the right place. So let's get started. Now
- 1:16I have a question for you and I want you to be 100% brutally
- 1:20honest with yourself because that's how we all evolve and grow and this
- 1:23will help you so much. And I want you
- 1:26to put your answer in the comments below so that I can help you with
- 1:31an answer that can actually help you. A tangible thing that
- 1:34you can use in your salon. Think about all of your staff as
- 1:38a whole. How invested do
- 1:41you think they are really in your business? Think
- 1:46of a percentage of between zero and a hundred
- 1:49percent. How invested in your business are
- 1:53your team members? And pop it in the comments below and I
- 1:56will literally give you a tangible tip that will help you
- 2:00exponentially grow that. I am so excited to bring this episode to you.
- 2:04How to get more out of your salon employees, hairdressers
- 2:07and your staff. Now, first of all, we have to
- 2:11address what is an average salon employee?
- 2:16How do they behave? What do they feel? What are their emotions? What
- 2:19is their customer service like? What are they going through? Because as salon owners,
- 2:23you're like, I don't give a fuck. I just want them to do what I
- 2:31We're not at SeaWorld. This isn't a whale that you've just captured
- 2:35out of the ocean that you are now using as your slave. This
- 2:38is a human being that deserves respect, nurturing,
- 2:43and support. And in
- 2:46order for us to get them to do the things that we want them to do, there
- 2:49has to be something in it for them. So,
- 2:54first of all, we need to think about what our
- 2:57staff are actually going through and where they're at
- 3:01And you're like, bench blind! Stop telling me this stuff, I
- 3:06If you want to get results, you have to get in the head of
- 3:09your staff. You need to understand them so
- 3:13that they can understand themselves, so that they can grow
- 3:16the business for you and with you.
- 3:20Because without your staff, you do not have a business.
- 3:26No, my clients are the most important thing. Without your
- 3:30staff, you do not have a business. Your
- 3:34staff are your business. So make it your business to
- 3:37find out about your business. Okay. So from
- 3:41what I've seen of working with and training thousands
- 3:45of hairdressers over more than two decades is
- 3:51staff come into a salon and they become hairdressers because
- 3:55they want to help people feel beautiful. because
- 3:59they feel ugly and unseen and unheard
- 4:04and they want to care for people. Hairdressers are
- 4:08beautiful souls. We're beautiful souls. You're a beautiful soul.
- 4:12We just want to nurture and like love on people and help
- 4:19And then we just like crave that, oh my gosh, this is the best hair cut
- 4:22or color that I've ever had. Thank you. And that like fills our
- 4:25heart. And we're just like, yum. Oh my gosh, I'm worthy. I
- 4:28can live. This is the most fulfilling day. Like we are fucking craving
- 4:32that. Oh my gosh, you're the best. Don't you
- 4:38That's why your hairdressers are hairdressers for
- 4:45You are only a hairdresser if you sell $1,000 in
- 4:49retail every week. If you sell $1,000 in
- 4:55And the hairdresser's like, no, that is
- 4:58not why I got into hairdressing at all. So if
- 5:01we can get into the hairdresser's head, and
- 5:05then see why they got into hairdressing and how we
- 5:08can marry up sales and their
- 5:11desires of, oh my gosh, this is the best experience I've ever
- 5:14had. How they can feel fulfilled while they're doing the things that you
- 5:18want them to do. Your business will succeed tenfold and
- 5:21you will get so much more out of your staff. They
- 5:25are craving, craving to make
- 5:29you happy. And they are craving, craving
- 5:34to be the best hairdresser and have their clients love
- 5:38them. Okay. So the things that,
- 5:41and you probably know all of these things, but I'm going to explain them first and
- 5:45then we're going to come to a different resolve afterwards because the
- 5:48results that you're getting right now are not exactly where you
- 5:51want them to be. And so I've got a different approach that
- 5:55may just change everything for you. Your staff
- 6:00don't want to be rejected from their clients. They don't want to sell.
- 6:03They don't want to come across as manipulative. They, like, hate
- 6:08that. They hate it. Look, retail isn't
- 6:12something that comes naturally to hairdressers. Because we've
- 6:16literally put a price tag on it and said,
- 6:20you'll get commission from that. They feel putrid every
- 6:23time they sell. Like it feels wrong in
- 6:27their body. So it's up to us as salon owners
- 6:30to create another way. And this is one of the things that is
- 6:33decaying our industry, is that we are forced to
- 6:37sell. And that's what makes other people, our
- 6:41clients, not trust us. Because they're
- 6:44like, I can tell you're trying to manipulate me into this sale. I already use shampoo
- 6:47at home. Shut up. I don't want your crap, you know? But as
- 6:51an industry, we get to change. We get to evolve and grow. And
- 6:55first of all, it comes with our employees. feeling worthy
- 6:59enough to sell, confident enough in
- 7:03themselves that they're okay when a client says
- 7:06no. And in actual fact, that they like cool with it, that it's
- 7:10like water off a duck's back. It does not even affect them. So as
- 7:13salon owners, it is literally up to us to
- 7:17change this paradigm, to transform our staff, to
- 7:20transform our industry, to regain the respect of
- 7:24our clients, by remembering who the fuck
- 7:27we are. And that's why I wanted to create a huge shift in
- 7:31this industry. That is my mission. And I want you
- 7:34to be on board with me so that we can change this industry by
- 7:37empowering our beautiful team members so
- 7:41that they can step into their natural gifts, their natural abilities, their intuition,
- 7:45their guidance, their yumminess to really serve their clients
- 7:49at whole new depths and levels that they haven't yet experienced,
- 7:53that you haven't yet seen. their amazingness. And
- 7:57I would love that for you as well, for you to just be like, oh
- 8:01my God, my team, I love them so much, they're amazing.
- 8:05Of course I want to give you every incentive under the sun because fuck,
- 8:09you are growing this business exponentially. Oh my gosh, you
- 8:16Like I want you to be blown away by your staff and your team.
- 8:20I want us to, you know, like if our staff like move different salons, I
- 8:23want us to be able to like ring each other up and be like, That team member was
- 8:26amazing. You trained them so well. You know,
- 8:30like, why can't we have that instead of like, Oh my God, I'll let him
- 8:35Yeah. Can you read between the lines? Yeah, I can read between the lines.
- 8:42Dodging a bullet there. You know, like I'm sick of that conversation. Like
- 8:46it doesn't need to be that way. And the only reason it
- 8:49is is because of us. So we
- 8:53all have a moral obligation to transform
- 8:57our leadership. We as the
- 9:00salon owners, like I said in previous episodes, we
- 9:05are the pioneers once
- 9:08we allow our staff to become the leaders. And
- 9:12when they become the leaders, You get your
- 9:16freedom back. You get your time back. You get
- 9:19to feel safe in your body knowing that you can walk away at the end of the day and
- 9:22nobody's going to steal your shit or steal any money off you, rip
- 9:26you off, take your clientele. None of that. We
- 9:30get to teach our staff ethics and
- 9:34values and get them away from tacky sales
- 9:37techniques that make clients feel a little bit sick,
- 9:41you know, and make us feel a bit sick. So as owners, in order
- 9:44for us to step into our pioneership and allow our staff
- 9:48to step into their leadership, it really comes down to
- 9:51us treating each one of them as an individual. Now,
- 9:56the way that I personally believe to have the most success
- 9:59and what I did in my salons is to get to know each and every one
- 10:03of them at a whole other level. You need to know what their strengths are,
- 10:06what their weaknesses are, what they're scared of, what they love. All
- 10:09of these things, like they're a client, get into their
- 10:13mind. and into their world so that you can
- 10:16understand where their blind spots are, how they
- 10:19can evolve and grow, what they hope and desire, what
- 10:23they would like, their dreams, their ambitions. And
- 10:27then if you can interweave that into your incentives and into your
- 10:30business, you'll have employees for life. You
- 10:34will be able to get so much out of your staff, willingly.
- 10:39They want to be of service. Hairdressers are
- 10:43beautiful souls. And you'll be like, that bitch has got attitude.
- 10:46Yeah, that bitch has got attitude because she has had a
- 10:50tricky time. You know, like we always say, you can't train
- 10:53attitude. You can't get somebody that's nice, you can train
- 10:57it. It's better off having a staff member that's unskilled and nice than
- 11:00somebody with attitude. Yes, and the
- 11:05ones that have got all the attitude have just had more wounds in
- 11:08their life. And so I'm not saying get all the people with
- 11:11attitude. I'm definitely not saying that. I'm just saying take every
- 11:15single individual on a case-by-case basis and
- 11:18you tune into what their ambitions are, getting to
- 11:21know them, allow them to be seen and heard, and then a lot of
- 11:24the time the attitude dissolves because you get them. Nobody
- 11:28just gets them, right? Nobody gets them. They're outcasts. They
- 11:33feel so different to everybody else. They didn't fit into all the things. They didn't learn the
- 11:36same way that everybody else learned. That's why we're hairdressers. We're
- 11:39not supposed to fucking fit in the round pegs of society. We're
- 11:44different. We're squares in everybody else's bloody circle. Boring,
- 11:48you know? God, we're all different. And so once
- 11:51you can see the uniqueness in each one of your staff members,
- 11:55then you can start to nourish their uniqueness. You can start to
- 11:59nourish what it is that they want and give them opportunities for
- 12:03growth. Give them opportunities for success. And
- 12:08the most important thing Two
- 12:12things. Set them up to succeed. I'm
- 12:16going to say it 10 times mentally, not physically. Set
- 12:21them up for success. So many business owners
- 12:25I have witnessed are like, yeah, I tell them exactly what I want them to do and
- 12:28then they don't do it. I'm like, oh, how often do you tell them? I
- 12:31told them in the interview, they know exactly what their job is about. I'm like, Dude,
- 12:36people remember about 10% of their interview. And
- 12:39you're like, no, the statistics actually say 20%. Not
- 12:42with hairdressers, mate. Hairdressers remember about 10% of
- 12:46what happens in the interview. Do you know why? Because so many
- 12:49hairdressers feel so unworthy, they are literally in fight, fright,
- 12:53freeze, or fawn in the interview process, that their conscious
- 12:56brain has shut off and they're in their nervous system. So
- 12:59good luck having the remember any of that stuff. And
- 13:03this is often happening as well in the induction process as
- 13:07well. So we think that we've done this amazing induction with
- 13:10them, that our staff are so like, yep, listening, listening,
- 13:14listening, got it all, got it all, got it all. And you don't need to share it with them ever again. That's
- 13:18what a narcissist would think, babe. You're not a narcissist. So
- 13:22you don't need to think like that. Education is a constant thing.
- 13:27It's constantly evolving as well. And you need
- 13:30to be able to hold them accountable through it as well. And not by
- 13:33being an asshole or a sea banger, but by being lovely
- 13:37and supportive and sharing and allowing them to
- 13:40tell you where they believe their strengths and
- 13:44their weaknesses are. Not so that you can just concentrate on their weaks and
- 13:47getting their weaknesses better. So that you can concentrate on their strengths
- 13:51and getting their strengths better so that they can be more confident and
- 13:55then naturally their weaknesses turn into strengths. So
- 13:58it's just about seeing things from a different point of view, from your
- 14:01staff's point of view, from a nurturing and nourishing point of view.
- 14:05And when you do that, they just have the biggest shifts.
- 14:10their personal development becomes soul development.
- 14:14Their natural gifts and abilities like intuition, their psychic abilities,
- 14:17their empathy, their creativity, their confidence,
- 14:22their problem-solving skills, it all comes on line 10x,
- 14:26right? Because a lot of the time that What
- 14:30I've seen in my time in hairdressing is that hairdressers are
- 14:33actually a lot of the time stuck in a fear response or
- 14:37stuck in a fight response. They're stuck in the nervous system, right?
- 14:40They feel so unconsciously shit
- 14:44about themselves that they're never truly present. It's
- 14:49really hard for them to stay present because they've had so much
- 14:53go on in their past that's made them feel stupid and like a piece of
- 14:56shit. And so if we're not really
- 14:59tuning in and being supportive of them as
- 15:03an individual, then they're just never going to
- 15:06flourish and it will always be challenging for them. So we
- 15:09want to be these supportive leaders that are able to allow
- 15:13our staff to over time feel safer and safer so
- 15:17that they can come out of their nervous system and actually be present
- 15:20with you, with themselves and with their clients. Because
- 15:24when they're able to be fully there and fully present and not
- 15:27tapped out mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually, financially, then
- 15:31they can really be of service to you,
- 15:35to the clients and most importantly to
- 15:38themselves. They can start to feel worthy, they can
- 15:41start to feel loved, encouraged and then
- 15:45watch them just take off in every area
- 15:48of your business and in their career as well. And
- 15:52you'd be like, but I don't want to like educate them too much that they leave my business. Well,
- 15:56make it so amazing so that they don't. Allow them.
- 16:00Well, I trained a lot of staff that once we started to do that personal development,
- 16:03they wanted to get into doing other education. And
- 16:07I like being trainers as well as being educated. They
- 16:10want to be, you know, tiny guy leaders. And
- 16:13so I would say to them, okay, cool. Well, you can do
- 16:16that as well as being in the salon. You can have time to do that and
- 16:21these are the figures that I want you to hit in the salon whilst
- 16:25giving you these epic amazing incentives. I just upped their incentives, upped
- 16:28their wages, upped their commissions so that they would never want to leave and
- 16:31they literally didn't. They stayed in my salons for a very long time
- 16:36and worked at head office as well but didn't choose to
- 16:39work in head office permanently because I paid them better and
- 16:43I gave them overseas holidays and I gave them more time off and
- 16:46I was supportive and I worked through their personal development and I helped them with
- 16:50so many different areas of their lives, reaching their goals. So
- 16:54if you're able to provide all of the things that they desire, then
- 16:58they will stay a lot longer. Will some of them leave? Absolutely.
- 17:03Of course. It's inevitable. Maybe
- 17:07you'll leave first. Who knows? Right? So rather
- 17:11than being attached to them staying and
- 17:14giving your power away to them every time
- 17:18you think that, it's about how can I just have this relationship
- 17:21be beautiful whilst they're in my care?
- 17:27Because they are. And if you
- 17:30are so attached to people staying, I
- 17:33would encourage you to look and see if this is happening somewhere else in your
- 17:36life too. Because your team, your
- 17:40salon, your business, is a reflection of your internal world.
- 17:46And then it becomes about doing some more work. But you can watch the previous episode for that. So,
- 17:50back to your staff. It's also
- 17:55really amazing once you start to nurture these gifts and abilities because then
- 17:59that's when the tacky, gross sales
- 18:03tactics and the yuckiness around sales dissipates.
- 18:08It literally dissolves because your staff
- 18:11become courageous. They become empowered
- 18:16and they become aware of what the clients need
- 18:21and all clients need retail. They're washing their hair with something.
- 18:25And if they're not getting it from you, they're getting it from somebody else. And
- 18:30what they're getting from somebody else is going to fuck up your cut or color. You know that. So
- 18:35once your team start to understand that they're not manipulating anybody
- 18:39when they're selling, they're actually doing a disservice when
- 18:43they don't educate the clients in exactly what
- 18:46they need, then everything becomes effortless. And
- 18:49you're like, well, it's still like them telling the client what they need. It
- 18:54is, if they haven't done an amazing consultation. But
- 18:57when they've done an amazing consultation from an empowered, courageous,
- 19:02bold and magnetic place, then they
- 19:05already know everything that the client needs. So
- 19:08it doesn't become manipulative or tacky sales. It
- 19:12literally just becomes the answer that the client is asking
- 19:15for. So when I work with people and when I
- 19:19work with teams, I literally work
- 19:22with teams so that they don't ever have to sell. So
- 19:26that they just ask the client specific questions and
- 19:29the client tells them exactly the retail that they need.
- 19:33Right? And so it's beautiful. It's such a beautiful way
- 19:37of working because all clients come to you because
- 19:40they want to feel like a million dollars without spending a million dollars.
- 19:44And so it's our gift to be able to have them
- 19:48spend as much as they can so that they
- 19:51get the feeling they actually came to our salon for. And
- 19:55you can be like, yuck, Blythe, that feels so manipulative and gross. You're talking about
- 19:58sales like that. Okay, so put it this way. If clients
- 20:02have got a certain amount of money to spend on themselves, and
- 20:08they don't spend that money in your salon, they're going to go straight
- 20:11away somewhere else and spend that money somewhere else. And think about this for
- 20:15yourself. People want to spend money on
- 20:18themselves because it makes them feel better. Think
- 20:24First of all, you're like, fuck, did I spend all that money? Oh my God, hide it from whoever
- 20:36Oh my God, fuck, I love this. And that's what
- 20:43They're like, oh my God, I fucking, fuck, fuck you, you fucking hot
- 20:47bitch, I love you. That's what I want my clients to
- 20:53have this specific story that I used to say to all my staff. So I want to share it
- 20:56with you and you can use it with your staff too. So I
- 20:59had a client and she had four boys,
- 21:03four teenage boys and a husband. Two
- 21:07fridges in the house, like everything, right? Like this woman was amazing. But
- 21:11these, she was in an abusive relationship. Her husband physically,
- 21:19And her sons started to copy him. And
- 21:22they treated her like absolute shit. And she
- 21:26did not have the confidence to leave this relationship. She stayed in
- 21:29it. And she was my client for years. And that's okay.
- 21:37But she had a certain budget that she was able to spend on
- 21:42And every time she came in, she needed
- 21:46to spend money so that she could feel good. I know that sounds so superficial
- 21:52And so I would teach her how to wear her hair on all different occasions, how
- 21:56to wear her hair every day, how when they went on holidays, and of course she
- 21:59needed products for those different experiences. And
- 22:03every single time she came in, she would say
- 22:08The 10 minutes that I do my hair in the morning is the only time that
- 22:11I feel loved and beautiful and I'm so grateful that
- 22:14you teach me how to look after myself and how to help me feel beautiful.
- 22:18And I love the products that I use and every time I put them
- 22:21in my hair I feel like I'm having a beautiful ritual and it makes me
- 22:25feel so much better. Thank you. Sales
- 22:32is not tacky when you do it right. Clients
- 22:37should love being able
- 22:40to do their hair. They should love the products that you give them.
- 22:44Like, can you imagine this woman? She'd be like, Bligh, they put this product in
- 22:47my hair and it just like helped me love myself. My
- 22:52heart, every time she came in, I just felt for her so much.
- 22:57And I shared that story with all of my team and it allowed them to
- 23:02the power in what we do when it's done right.
- 23:07So sales is sales. And
- 23:10looking after your clients is a whole nother thing. And that's the
- 23:13level that I want all hairdressers to get at where
- 23:17we can actually understand the gift that we are giving our
- 23:20clients. And you'll never sell again.
- 23:24And your team will never sell again. And they'll feel so
- 23:29confident in what they're doing. Does it happen overnight? No,
- 23:33it doesn't happen overnight. It's training and it
- 23:36comes from you or me. And
- 23:40it's a process over time for them to build their
- 23:44confidence, to build their courage, to
- 23:47build their energy, to build their self-worth so that they can
- 23:50help other people build their self-worth too. Because once
- 23:53we can come back to and remember the importance
- 23:58and the power of a hairdresser, we
- 24:02get to come back to the mission of changing this world together forever. And
- 24:06I want to remind you of the story of my shaman, my
- 24:09teacher. Yeah, I also went through that training. That's a
- 24:12story for another day. But before ceremonies, plant
- 24:15medicine ceremonies, he'd ask me to braid his hair. And
- 24:20he'd always say, Blythe, make sure you put the most beautiful prayers of protection in
- 24:25Make sure that you protect everybody in this whole ceremony with
- 24:31And the first time he said that, I said, what are you talking about? I
- 24:34mean, I know what you're talking about, but I want to know your side of what you're talking about.
- 24:38This is an elder. He said, Blythe, all hairdressers are healers. All
- 24:43hairdressers used to prepare the warriors, the saints, the
- 24:46sages, before the kings, the queens, everybody,
- 24:51before a battle, before a rite of passage, before
- 24:56You guys are amazing. You're wisdom keepers.
- 25:01Don't you understand what you do? Don't you understand how valuable
- 25:04you are to people? And I was like, fuck, yes,
- 25:08I do. But you've said it in a completely different way that helps
- 25:12me to understand it so much more. It's like, you need
- 25:15to share this with more people. You need to help all
- 25:18of the hairdressers remember who the fuck they are because
- 25:26And this starts with you sharing this with your team.
- 25:33They're there for a reason. They're different for a reason. They're
- 25:38As well as hairdressers. And
- 25:45or tune in, remember, when you're doing somebody's hair, you're
- 25:49just so there for them, right? Just so in love with them,
- 25:52just want the best for them. We are so unbiasedly in
- 25:57love with our clients, not in a creepy way, but just fuck, we
- 26:00love them. Fuck, we just want the best for them. Sometimes
- 26:06we forget that. We forget how magnetic
- 26:10our medicine is. We forget that the work that we're doing is literally medicine
- 26:16And that's why we got into hairdressing. And it's us as
- 26:20salon owners. that have taken that
- 26:25And it's not your fault, it's humanity. We as salon owners, because we get caught
- 26:28up in the money, and I'm not saying you shouldn't be caught up in the money because
- 26:32it's the only way that we can pay our staff, right? But because we've
- 26:35been caught up in greed and this societal model
- 26:39of how we should run our salons and how we should mentally manipulate
- 26:43our staffs into selling, we've forgotten the
- 26:50And we've forgotten how magical our
- 26:57So I invite you, I use this as an invitation to
- 27:02really go into your salon and look at it from a completely different point
- 27:05of view, from your staff's point of view, of who they
- 27:14and nurture that fucking beautiful loving essence
- 27:17within them so that they never sell again. So that
- 27:21they can just be magnetic powerhouses,
- 27:26courageous leaders within your business that enable their
- 27:29clients to fucking fully receive all of
- 27:35all of their wisdom, all of their power, all
- 27:38of their intention that they are giving them because hairdressing
- 27:42is a gift. That's why we're so passionate about what we
- 27:46do every time we are doing somebody's hair. Fuck, it's a
- 27:49fucking gift. We are giving something from our
- 27:52heart and that's why it hurts so much every
- 27:56time somebody doesn't like the work we do. Your hairdressers, they
- 28:00don't want to feel that rejection. They don't want to feel that pain when somebody hasn't
- 28:03accepted their gift. So it's up
- 28:06to you to help them realise
- 28:12Nobody's rejecting them. It's just conversations around
- 28:17what the client wants as well. And it all comes
- 28:21back to the consultation. It all comes back to you nurturing this
- 28:24space for your hairdressers. God, I'm so emotional today.
- 28:29I'm so passionate about this. I
- 28:34just see so many missed opportunities with salon owners and their staff. And
- 28:38I feel that's what's bred all the unconscious yuckness in our industry.
- 28:43So if we can tune into the wisdom
- 28:52all of the love that we have within us as salon owners,
- 28:56just to really like, I know that you're dealing with so much.
- 28:59I really do. I know the pressures of a salon can be
- 29:03so overwhelming. I fucking, I'm feeling that for
- 29:06you right now. I'm feeling that with you right now. Believe me. I
- 29:12And the pressures can go away when we
- 29:16are in service to our staff. We
- 29:19get to serve them and share that much love with them like
- 29:23we do when we share that much love with our clients. The
- 29:27gifts that we're giving our clients, we also need to give those gifts to
- 29:34They're just the younger versions of us that also haven't
- 29:44And that's why I'm so passionate about this. And that's why I'm so passionate about surfing
- 29:52because I really know what this industry can be if we all remember who the
- 29:55fuck we are. And the only
- 29:58reason society has made us be this way is
- 30:04They've already cured off all the wise men and women. They
- 30:13They've gotten us to inject our faces with so much poison and shit that
- 30:16we've forgotten who the fuck we are. Society
- 30:20has made us this way so that we don't realise our power. But
- 30:24now is the time for you to all take your power back. Realise
- 30:28who you are. Train your staff so
- 30:32that they can remember who they are too. That you're not just a
- 30:35hairdresser. A hairdresser is a wise
- 30:39woman, a wise man. A
- 30:43hairdresser is a sage, a healer, a psychic
- 30:46and intuitive, an empath that loves unconditionally,
- 30:51unbiasedly, and is here to be part of a fucking
- 30:54revolution that changes humanity forever. And I'm
- 30:57so happy to be on this journey with you. I honestly cannot
- 31:01express enough how much I'm here for you.
- 31:07Every fibre in my being is ready to support you if and
- 31:10when you're ready. Because I know it's scary doing it alone. I
- 31:14did it alone for a long time. And then I got a fucking coach
- 31:18and a mentor. And my business 10x'd. And
- 31:22then I learnt from my coach and mentor what they were doing so that I
- 31:25could help other people. Except I added all the woo-woo amazingness into
- 31:29it. Because there was so much that they weren't doing. It was all the mindset
- 31:32stuff back then and now we add all the heart back in. Because that's what all
- 31:36hairdressers really crave, is the heart. That's what all of humanity
- 31:39really craves, is to come back into their hearts. Get out of their fucking
- 31:43monkey mind heads. So with this, you
- 31:46have a lot of power now. You have a lot of knowledge and a lot of awareness. How
- 31:50you can guide your staff. to be
- 31:53the best versions of themselves. And it's up to you to
- 31:56be bold and brave and step through your
- 32:00own shit and be of service to your staff. Thank
