If you've ever wondered what goes on "behind the chair" then you're in for a treat! In this episode, I chat with Terra Harvell, six-figure stylist, salon owner and educator, and founder and CEO of Harper Ellis Hair Co. Terra candidly shares why she's had to learn to fall in love with fear on her journey as a beauty entrepreneur, the importance of cultivating a strong community, and how she juggles it all as a multi-passionate business owner.

About Terra:

Terra  has built a flourishing business behind the chair for nearly a decade and has turned her craft into a six-figure income. Her impressive resumé includes being the Founder and CEO of Harper Ellis Hair Co and owner of Salon Five Zero Four in Fort Smith, Arkansas, but she hasn't stopped there. After mastering the artistry of the business, Terra quickly realized you must provide the FULL package in order to be an industry leader. Cue The Harper Ellis Hair Co. Academy! Her Academy has educated hundreds of stylists digitally and in cities such as Fort Smith and Nashville. Not only has she educated on her exclusive hand-tied luxury hair extensions method, but she has also shared her knowledge of all things business and marketing that led her to becoming a six-figure stylist. Her dream is to share her valuable knowledge in hopes that it will help other stylists find as much success as she has found!

When was the last time you had a difficult conversation? Did you feel confident in the way you expressed yourself?

When was the last time you shared your views on something without second-guessing yourself or worrying about what someone else thought?

When was the last time you spoke up in a meeting, set a clear boundary with someone, or asserted yourself in an uncomfortable situation?

Many women struggle with using their voice. Some research suggests that women apologize when we really should be direct because we worry about coming off as rude, or hurting someone's feelings. According to a study in the journal of Psychological Science, women have a much lower threshold for what constitutes offensive behavior. In turn, this causes us to apologize more - even when we should be assertive.

In this short but powerful episode, I’m going to share some tips on how to get crystal clear about who you are, what’s important to you, and how to put it all out there without the fear and without the guilt.

I LOVE getting dressed up. To me it's an art. Now more than ever, I have been super intentional about the way I get up and get dressed each day.

I feel more productive, creative, and inspired. And to be honest it has saved my sanity over the past few months.

I love to set my intentions at the top of each month. It helps me stay focused and in alignment with whatever I want to bring to fruition for myself. Intentions are different than goals. In fact, I much prefer setting intentions because they allow me to stay in a high vibe without attaching myself to a specific outcome. For me, a goal can limit me and cause me to think there's just one to do something. Whereas an intention reminds me of how I want to feel, rather than what I want to achieve. And it leaves room for the universe to do it's magic! In today's episode, I'm sharing 5 tips for setting powerful intentions so that you can call more abundance, creativity, joy, and FLOW into your life. Enjoy!

Today I'm bringing you an encore episode that I feel really strongly about sharing again. It's my conversation with my friend and peer, Amanda Frances. Amanda is my most-frequent guest, I've never had anyone on the show 3 times before, so this is a big deal. She is a self-made multi-millionaire, thought leader, business coach, self-proclaimed "money queen" - and most importantly, a good friend of mine who I respect and admire very much.

I decided to share this episode again because I feel like now more than ever, we are in a time where people are looking at their lives — and at whether their relationship with money and the dynamics at play in their finances do or don’t serve them, feel good to them, or work for them.

Today I'm chatting with Morgan Bloomer, stylist and buyer for Phoenix + Kate boutique, and self-proclaimed "outfit mixologist." Morgan is literally a beam of sunshine, a total girl's girl and has an eye for style AND business. She is one of my dearest clients and I've had the privilege of learning about her vision + her business from the inside out. We worked together during the Coronavirus outbreak to not only help pivot her business model in the interim, but also maintain a positive and creative mindset necessary for our current climate.

In this episode, we talk about starting before you're ready, the importance of relationships in your business, how Morgan had to pivot her retail brick and mortar business during COVID-19, why the way we dress impacts the experience we have in the world, the connection between style and confidence, her brand of "closet therapy" and so much more. Grab a cocktail and get ready to dive in!
