Whether you’ve faced personal struggles, business challenges, or those “is it all worth it?” moments, this episode is here to remind you: you’re not alone. Together, we’ll reflect on the power of resilience, the importance of growth, and why it’s okay to not have everything figured out.

  • How do you keep moving forward when life feels unbearably heavy?
  • Why is asking for help so hard, and how can we get better at it? (I definitely have to keep working on this!)
  • How anchoring into your “why” can pull you through the toughest seasons
  • When it’s time to let go and how - from toxic relationships to services you don’t like providing
  • Are you embracing systems and support in your business—or doing it all the hard way?
  • How focusing on gratitude (even for the smallest things) can shift your mindset and help you through hard times
  • What if you started thinking bigger for your life and business in 2025?!

From delivering unforgettable client experiences to building boundaries that actually work, Becca gets real about what it takes to grow and thrive in the lash industry.

  • How to build a unique identity in a saturated industry
  • Why Becca believes beauty services are recession-proof, and how she plans to stay relevant
  • Why Becca is shifting away from selling lash application products to lash artist accessories and apparel

About Becca:
Becca is a 9+ year veteran in the lash industry based in Arizona. She just opened up her own salon suites and sells lash supplies from glue to lash trays. Currently, she is transitioning into developing her own apparel, accessory, and jewelry line for the lash industry.

Have you ever hit a point where your to-do list feels like it’s never-ending, your brain won’t turn off, and no matter how much you hustle, you’re still overwhelmed? Yeah... same. In this episode, I pull back the curtain and get real about the burnout I didn’t see coming, how I knew I had to make changes, and what I’m doing to make my business (and life) sustainable again.
No highlight reels here—just an honest look at what happens when we push too hard and how to find our way back. If you’ve ever felt like you’re juggling a million things and still dropping the ball, this one’s for you.
What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • The warning signs of burnout I ignored
  • How my “leaky boundaries” made everything harder (and how I’m fixing them)
  • Why taking a break or vacation usually isn’t enough
  • The small daily habits that are actually making the biggest impact
  • How I’m redefining success to prioritize joy, peace, and sustainability

This episode is all about giving yourself permission to slow down, reassess, and make changes that truly serve you. I challenge you to take a closer look at where you’re overextending yourself, identify what’s draining your energy, and start setting boundaries that actually stick. Business building doesn’t equal you having to be stretched thin. Hit play and let’s dive in!
