262 Empowering the Next Generation of Stylists with Martha Lynn Kale

I often say that opening a business gives you a great education. Not just into the skills needed in management, finance, and marketing. 

But also the understanding and insights that come with the responsibility of employing people, training them and coaching them to become the best version possible of themselves. 

On today's episode, I’m talking with returning guest salon owner and now author Martha Lynn Kale of the Mirror Mirror salon in Austin, Texas, who has written a book about getting the most out of the early years of your career.

In today’s podcast, we discuss:

- Martha Lynn’s book “The Ambitious Stylist” Making the Most of Cosmetology School.
- Why hand in hand with freedom, flexibility and autonomy comes personal responsibility, accountability and owning the outcome.
- Advice on building a clientele and developing your own personal brand.

And lots more!
