Runs Business with Scissors


Consulting News

Hello super busy stylists and salon owners,


It is time, actually past time to pause and review how you and your business are doing and to set a goal or two for 2020.



Whenever I do this I am reminded that I run my business, my business does not run me.

It takes discipline to do this exercise because when your day behind-the-chair is at capacity and your personal life is ticking along nicely why would you change anything at all? Or conversely your day behind-the-chair is not at capacity and your personal life is a mess how on earth can you find time to change anything at all?

Here are a few reasons why:

1.     You want to make more money.
2.     You want to work smarter not harder.
3.     You want to remember why you love to do hair.
4.     You want more time with your family and friends.
5.     You want to improve your skills.
6.     You want to travel more.
7.     You want to understand where your money goes.
8.     You want to start a retirement fund.
9.     You want to laugh more and stress less.
10.  You need a change.

It is always amazing to me that when I take the time to check in with my coach and actually sit down to review where I am today and where I want to go that the miracles happen.

Ready for a miracle?  Ready for a coaching session?

Contact me today and let’s take steps towards the change you want to happen.

Retirement Life

HairQueen News On October 1 2022 after 40 plus years of working full-time I stepped way-back from the salon chair and way-into retirement life.   As the date grew closer, I was and still am all over the place with so many feelings and uncertainties about how to navigate this next stage. To mark the occasion of my retirement I had a wonderful party, please see the previous blog, Endings and Beginnings.  Next, I went on a celebratory trip which included a week sailing the Atlantic Ocean on the Queen Mary 2.  So exciting! Crossing the Atlantic Ocean Gala Time Upon my return I am turning my attention to what it means to be an older, wiser, experienced, master of my trade.  As space in my life opens up I will take the opportunity to grow Swans Studios, to mentor, coach and consult within and beyond the salon industry. With more free time I will enjoy my granddaughters, my family, friends and hobbies. I know from many of you that the retired life is a busy life and I am grateful t
