I could so use some time with my friends, I miss getting cozy and chatting about anything and everything. Covid really messed with everything, didn’t it?

Since Covid, It’s not safe to have my friends over to chat and hang, so I thought, what’s the next best thing?

Having you virtually come hang out!

I’ve got a special guest for you today, Casey Taylor, she’s an RYB alumni who joined right in the midst of a pandemic. You are not gonna wanna miss this episode ‘cause Casey has done some pretty amazing things this year, despite the pandemic.

I know you’re going to learn so much from Casey, so let’s get right to it!

I could feel the sweat trickle down my back as I panicked trying to figure out how I was going to navigate this stressful situation that I found myself in.

I was brand new to the balayage game and I was still in the “sell it with confidence to everyone so I can get more practice” stage…

I don’t think anything could have prepared me for this.

Oh boy, you’re in for a treat today! I’ve got a very special guest who is near and dear to my heart, Amy Mitchell. Amy has not only revolutionized my business, she’s created systems that actually work for my creative brain.

I’m so honored that she’s joined me for this episode to share with you that it is possible to get organized in your biz, even if you’re an Anxious Creative like myself.

So, let’s dive in shall we?

Let me take you back to fall of 2014. I had just recently moved to Calgary, after selling my home and my salon in another province, the only person I knew was my boyfriend.

I was two weeks into running my home-salon in my basement. I was pretty excited to be getting new clients booking in.

On this fateful Wednesday, I had one client I had previously seen in my chair finishing up, with another one (a new client) sitting patiently on my pink couch waiting for their appointment.

I’m so excited to be bringing you this episode of The Anxious Creative. I’ve got a super special guest for you, Mark Peyton. He’s a barbershop owner, mental health advocate and fellow Canadian from Nova Scotia.

It’s been a long time coming, but I think the Anxious Creative has waited long enough for a barber to come on to the show. He’s got such a heart of gold and I can’t wait for you to dive into this episode.
