On this week’s solo episode of the Friends in Beauty Podcast, I’m keeping it real with you. This is my last episode before I take a much-needed pause, and I want to share why.

I’m opening up about what burnout really feels like as a beauty pro and entrepreneur, and why it’s so important for us to prioritize our health for longevity in this industry. From setting and honoring boundaries with clients, to living in Washington, DC during such a tense political climate, to processing the weight of world news in Gaza, Sudan, and Libya — it’s been a lot.

This episode is my reminder to you (and to myself): we don’t have to glorify pushing through exhaustion. Rest is revolutionary. Boundaries are protection. And longevity in beauty comes when we choose peace over pressure.

✨ Tune in, reflect with me, and know that this pause is not the end — it’s the reset Friends in Beauty needs to grow even bigger and better.

Oh yea! And I’m doing my makeup so you get to see some of my favorite beauty products and try some new ones with me!

If you’ve ever felt burnt out, overwhelmed, or unsure how to balance your artistry with your well-being, this episode is for you. 💕 Let me know what you think.

Enjoy this episode!
