  • Are you an aesthetician or skin wellness professional who is feeling stuck and overwhelmed by the abundance of treatment and program options out there? Don’t worry; you are not alone! We’ve all been in that position before, trying to decide which products, machines, programs, or modalities to focus on; what services our clients need most, and how to differentiate ourselves from other professionals.

    That feeling of fear and uncertainty can often lead us to "Shiny Object Syndrome" — when we jump from one shiny new product or modality to another without any clear direction or strategy for success. But don't despair! With just a few small steps and careful planning, you can unlock the door to your ideal practice niche — no matter how specific or unique it might be!

    On this episode of The Skin Wellness Pro Show, Rachael and Tara discuss how to find your focus and avoid Shiny Object Syndrome in your aesthetics, coaching, or skin wellness practice.

  • Have you ever had a client whose skin just doesn’t improve…even if they use professional skincare, eat clean, exercise, drink lots of water, get great sleep, meditate...do all the things they're supposed to do?

    The reason they’re not getting results might have nothing to do with their skincare or diet…the cause might be lurking in their home or office instead in the form of toxic mold, blue light, indoor air pollution, or another environmental toxicant (commonly referred to as "toxin").

    If you’re an aesthetician or health coach looking for a deeper knowledge of how environmental toxins contribute to premature aging and common skin issues, look no further! We have a fantastic masterclass coming up for you on March 7, 2023, where we will take a deep dive into environmental toxins.

    By the end of the class, you'll have the knowledge you need to help your clients identify and avoid toxins that might harm their skin and overall health.
