REAL TALK!!!!
My guest, Mistie Collins and I dive DEEP into the real talk on being a new mom in the beauty industry.
As a new mom, who chooses to go to work, we find ourselves constantly questioning if working is the right choice. As Mistie mentions.."sometimes I'm killing the game and sometimes I question what I'm doing... is working and missing out on watching my son grow truly worth it?" We are judged by clients, family and society on working OR staying home with our kids. Mistie and I agree that it's so important to just go with what feels right for the individual. She shares that, most days, working is so good for her mental health. Yes, she misses her son, however while working she gets to showcase her individuality and be "Mistie"!
We also dive into how she juggles work life balance and how she loves structure. She shares that postpartum was hard because of the lack of structure and control. We discuss Astrology and how being a Scorpio plays a role in her decisions and how it can affect working in the beauty industry with different clients and personality types. Mistie tells me that she is a firm believer in self reflection. She takes the time every day to give herself 30 mins of alone time to decompress and self reflect, which allows her to stay grounded. We also discuss that some days, being a beauty professional, we are the therapist (giver) and other days we are the receiver. We often pour into our clients naturally, however often times the table gets turned. She shares that, It's being strong in who you are and what you do to be able to understand and accept this.
Lastly we touch on triggers, and why they're important to sit with. How her clients energy effects her, what she does to release it and what her non-negotiable are now that she's a mom! You're going to love this episode!
Enjoy!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
