    I’ll walk you through the exact 4-step check-in I use to reset my priorities, protect my peace, and pivot with confidence — especially when life feels too full and not fulfilling. This is the process I used to walk away from the salon, shift my business, and even step back from relationships that were no longer serving me.

Let’s talk about how to shift our perspective, trust the process, and embrace the idea that nothing is ever wasted in God’s hands.

    Ever felt like success was a competition? Like there’s only so much space at the top, and if someone else gets there first, you’re out of luck? Yeah, we’re canceling that mindset today. In this episode of Beyond the Brush, I’m diving deep into the power of embracing your uniqueness, ditching the competition mentality, and stepping fully into your confidence.

I’ll also share what happened when I launched my Makeup Academy 10 years ago that completely shocked me. The truth is, insecurity and scarcity thinking are at the root of competition culture, but here’s the good news: you don’t have to play that game.

  • Ep. 1 Where it All Began
    2025/03/06

    Today, I’m taking you back to where it all began. Before the makeup academy, before the mentorship, there was music. I was a girl at a piano, pouring my heart into songs about freedom, faith, and finding my voice. But life had other plans, and let’s just say the road wasn’t a straight path. I faced rejection, setbacks, and even a few mean girls along the way. But here’s the thing: every setback was a setup for a comeback.

    Each twist and turn led me to where I am today—a life and career I truly love. In this episode, I’m sharing my journey, the lessons I’ve learned, and why I started this podcast. It’s all about creating a space where we can get real, go deep, and build the lives we were made for.
