How we run our salon in our busiest season
Episode 195
Sunday, 10 May, 2026
February tried to take us out. Not in a dramatic way. In the quiet, sneaky way that happens when every weekend is booked, you’re living out of a suitcase, and you still need to show up for your team, your clients, and your family with a clear head.Now that we’ve had a moment to zoom out, we’re reflecting on that season and what it taught us about leadership, pace, and staying grounded when everything feels full.In this episode, we share a behind the scenes update from the Conscious Salon world while Tae’s away. From retreats we’ve locked in, to a live event idea we may have announced before securing a venue, to navigating the momentum of saying yes to opportunities that genuinely align with our values.We also reflect on Salon Forum. The unexpected power of meeting inspiring people in real life. And a standout leadership moment where we watched someone handle disruption with total composure and what that taught us.Then we take you to Tasmania. Hobart, Spring Bay Mill glamping, outdoor showers in wild weather, long lunches, near missed flights, and that very real feeling of being both grateful and completely exhausted.If you are in the salon industry, running a small business, or moving through a busy season right now, this will feel very familiar. We talk about how to grow without losing yourself in the pace.Most importantly, we break down the two simple anchors that helped us stay regulated through it all: • A calendar that plans your whole life, not just work • A daily mindful moment to reset before the day beginsIf things have felt fast lately, this episode is your reminder to slow down, reset, and lead with more intention.👉 Follow the show, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find tools that actually help.To follow our journey:Instagram @aheadhair_@the_conscious_salon
