That Makeup Gal
It’s me, That Makeup Gal!
A business girlie who tripped over all the “shoulds,” tore up the script, and started fresh in her 30s—after life took a very unexpected turn in a direction I absolutely was not ready for.
Grief shook everything I thought I knew. My perspective, my priorities, and the way I moved through the world. This podcast is about the growth that came from those hard lessons and the chaos of navigating some very unfamiliar paths.
After over 15 years in the makeup industry, I’ve seen the highs of running a creative business and the lows of when it all feels like it’s falling apart.
Deep lessons, fun chats with other business owners, and stories that hit home.
Never polished, always real, and that’s what makes it relatable.
Whether you’re here for beauty, business, or just a good story, grab a coffee (or a marg), and let’s rip in!
LUVYA!

#4 - Unlearning Hyper-Independence: Finding Strength in Vulnerability
In this episode, we’re diving into the often overlooked journey of unlearning hyper-independence. For anyone who’s been fiercely self-reliant, you know that finding comfort in vulnerability isn’t just hard—it can feel like breaking down walls you’ve spent years building. I talk about what it’s like to shift from “I can do it all myself” to “Maybe I don’t have to.” We’ll explore how deeply ingrained our independence can be, why opening up can feel so uncomfortable, and why embracing vulnerability might just be the next step forward.
Tune in as I share my own struggles and realisations on this path toward balancing independence with the power of connection.
