The Beauty Ritual Podcast
The Beauty Ritual Podcast is about the intersection of age, beauty and identity in the 21st century.
This podcast was inspired by the last decade I spent behind the chair watching clients contemplate their lives and their relationships with themselves. Beauty trends come and go but what remains constant is our desire to know ourselves.
The Beauty Ritual podcast is for people who sit down in the salon chair, look in the mirror and think, "What am I trying to do here?"

From Classroom to Kismet: Lessons in Craft, Confidence & Community
In this episode, host Eva Stasce reconnects with her former beauty school teacher Nicoletta Gauci, now the owner of Kismet Salon. Together, they reflect on the full-circle journey from the classroom to the salon floor, the lessons that never leave you, and how mentorship shapes a stylist’s artistry. Nicoletta shares what inspired her to open Kismet, the values she’s built into its culture, and the evolving meaning of success in the beauty industry.
If you’ve ever wondered how education, resilience, and a love for people can transform a career, this candid conversation is for you.
