Tacos, Tequila, Therapy & The Tea
Join me, Patrice B, for Tacos, Tequila Therapy & the Tea podcast. We're going to be talking about the beauty industry and everything else from life to love to motivation. I'll be bringing in some friends in the industry to inspire, inform, and entertain you. Every day I learn something new and there's a new opportunity to share my passion with others. I've done it on the stage, in the classroom, and behind the chair, and now I'm going to share it with you! I am a hair stylist, entrepreneur, educator, and mom who has been in the beauty industry for over 20 years. I will be talking about hair, beauty and how to get that mind right because I believe that goes hand in hand with what we do behind the chair. Join me, follow, and share. Remember, you got options - choose The Tea with P!

Are you acting out roles like wife or department manager, before you actually have the part? Consider whether you're having permanent conversations with temporary people. Why would he deserve your "wife...

I'm talking a little about grief today - but not in a sad way! In our lives we'll have many ships - relationships, situationships, friendships, work relationships, you name it. As we go through life and learn and grow, some of those s...

This is a season of growth, challenges, and leveling up. Do you feel it too? I've been working on being self-aware on my journey of healing and we've had some good conversations in the salon about life and growth.
You know how you feel like you've done some healing, then the universe sends you a new challenge? Stay steady and sturdy ...

We've reached the one year anniversary of this podcast! THANK YOU for supporting your girl and being here with me!
I also recently passed the 8 year anniversary of opening my salon and let me tell you, that was a time when I had to JUMP and take that leap of faith. My son's daycare gave us 2 weeks notice that they were closing down, and I had...

How do you see yourself? The real you, not the things you do for others or the you that you think others see.
This conversation has been coming up in my salon and at home. When was the last time you really took a look and owned who you really are? Including the good, the bad, the ugly. Do you ever boast on your accomplishments? Why or why not?

I've been feeling kind of meh. You too? I love my work and we have fun in the salon, but once I'm done, I start to feel overwhelmed with all the adulting, running my business, and overthinking about how I'm going to retire and the direction I want to go in my life.
I had to get rid of the things that were draining my energy and find ways ...

Back when I started my hairstyling career, I had to start all over. I had been working a corporate job, but my boss could see my passion for hair with the different styles I would come in with every day. I wrote out a plan, a timeline, a list of what the school needed to look like, all of it - and I made it happen.
Every time I write out something with...

When people ask what I want for my birthday, I used to always say, “Peace, sanity, and balance.” What I’ve realized now is that those aren’t things someone can give to me.
We’ve talked before about this personal journey towards self-awareness and growth. When we really own our journey and our own peace, it’s yours! No one can take it away from you.

I’m so glad to be back with you after the holidays! As you know, I start my new year back at my birthday, but this year I had trouble keeping focused. When everyone starts talking about New Year, New Me, I had a thought…
I’ve never done the “new me” part of that. My goal is to meet the next stage of my growth with purpose and intention and keep my promises to mys...

It's still Scorpio season! Because I use my birthday as an opportunity to set my intentions and resolutions, I wanted to share my big lesson with you today.
Gratitude is incredibly important. Today, I want to talk about the importance of focusing on positives, even in adversities and when times are rough. True abundance lies within oneself, it&ap...

It’s officially Scorpio Season! If you didn’t know already, you know now - it’s your girl’s birthday and I use my birthday as a time to reflect and set goals for my year. No reason to wait for January 1st.
Over this past year, I’ve accomplished goal after goal after goal. My personal relationships have grown, I’ve created a journal (get your copy here!), and...

Perspective: a particular attitude or way of regarding something. Today, I want to talk about our perspective when dealing with hard things in life. For the most part, I try to stay on the side of positivity and possibility because I’ve found that seeing the bright light helps you through the dark times.
Everyone has their own moments of darkness, grief, los...

Sometimes I find that people are very shy to talk about their accomplishments and what’s going on in their lives. It may seem wrong to boast - but if you’ve done a thing, own it! You ain’t leasing it! Give yourself credit!
You got that education. It’s yours. You earned that certification. You started that business. You’ve overcome and accomplished things and...

Today I want to stress the importance of communication. It seems like people nowadays don’t believe in a question mark or a period when they’re communicating with others. Even with my kids - are you asking me or are you telling me?
When communicating with your clients or with businesses that you work with, you need to be clear about what you’re trying to say...

A lot of women are struggling with alopecia and don’t know what the problem actually is. When they don’t feel safe in the salon to talk about the issues they’re having, then they won’t get the help they need. There needs to be a conversation between the professional and the client that goes all the way from where they’ve been to where they want to go.
If yo...

Lately it’s been on my mind that I haven’t been wanting to ask people what’s next for them anymore when they come into the salon. That question seems flat and linear - why would anyone want what’s next on the same level as they’ve been?
A better question is, “what’s up?” What’s up from where you are? What can you learn from where you’ve been, be creative an...

To piggyback off of episode 4 and owning your shit, we’re going into dating today. Not all relationships are meant to last forever, but it’s important that you own your role in the way things go. Yeah, he might have been the worst boyfriend ever, but you did let him in. There are times when the problem might be you.
Regardless, after a relationship ends, that’s y...

Continuing with my theme of professionalism and customer service, here’s another thing I’ve been hearing a lot about that needs to stop.
When someone becomes an entrepreneur because they don’t want to deal with people, that’s a problem. A business requires customers, employees, and the public - if you want the business to succeed, you need to RUN it like a busin...

In my last episode I spilled the tea on professionalism in the salon, what it means to be a professional cosmetologist and what to look for to get the best result for your hair. On the flip side, this episode is about the customer side - because people aren’t taught how to be a good customer, apparently.
This can look like:
- Not liking rules that are set in pla...

Stylist, cosmetologist, licensed, unlicensed, salon or at home, how do you pick someone to help you take care of your hair?
If you’ve been choosing stylists based purely on other styles they’ve done, you’re not going to find someone who is able to help you meet your hair goals. There are some amazing braiders out there that make some gorgeous designs but th...
