What if building a bigger beauty business isn’t actually the answer?

In this episode, I’m joined by Beauty Business School student Sarah Pegg, owner of The Lash Hub in Bundaberg, for one of the most honest conversations we’ve ever had on the podcast.

Sarah shares her full-circle journey from being fully booked, pregnant, overwhelmed and managing a team… to making the brave decision to downsize, simplify and build a business that actually supports her life.

We talk about:

  • The pressure to scale just because your books are full
  • Motherhood, burnout and running a business with an empty cup
  • Why trying “the big thing” helped her realise it wasn’t what she wanted
  • People-pleasing, guilt and learning to choose yourself
  • Pricing properly, profit clarity and finally feeling financially safe
  • Letting go of the idea that success has to look a certain way

This episode is our gift to you to stop chasing what you think you should want and start building a beauty business that actually feels good to run. You didn't start to feel STUCK.
