Glow Up
Episode 5
Saturday, 31 January, 2026
Episode 5 of PiXL Pearls Series 9 steps into the beauty industry’s meteoric rise and asks what its “glow up” can teach leaders about real, lasting change. Hosted by Rachel Johnson, this episode moves beyond products and playlists to the inner work of transformation – the shift from awkward starts to confident practice, and from solo excellence to helping others shine. Tune in to hear how an industry powered by small luxuries, creators and micro‑influencers has reframed value, trust and attention, and why that matters for classrooms, staffrooms and boardrooms. Explore the difference between a surface makeover and a meaningful shift in mindset, how situational leadership turns pressure into progress, and what it takes to move from “blow up” to “glow up” without losing your footing.
