It’s one thing to reach six figures in your styling business. It’s another to actually feel like you’ve arrived there. Too many stylists keep sprinting on the hamster wheel long after they’ve “made it,” believing that being overbooked, exhausted, and constantly available (even after hiring help) means things are working. The reality is that this is just survival mode, and it keeps your business stuck at the exact level you’re trying to grow past.
In part three of our Multi Six-Figure Stylist Series on The Six Figure Personal Stylist Podcast, we’re talking about something that trips up a lot of high-achieving stylists—believing that staying booked and constantly moving means the business is growing. It doesn’t. Your next level shows up when you’re not buried in client work and reacting to every task, but when you finally have room to make decisions and move the business forward.
