In this final episode of the year on Salon Conversation, Lisa reflects on what it really means to close one year well  - without rushing to escape it, fix it, or label it a failure.

This isn’t a “set your goals and hustle harder” conversation. It’s an honest look at growth, grief, joy, boundaries, identity, leadership, and what happens when you stop chasing more and start choosing what actually matters.

In this episode, Lisa shares:

• Why reflecting on the year just lived is more powerful than racing into the next one
• How joy, growth, and clarity often show up quietly — and why we miss them
• What salon ownership teaches us about boundaries, people, money, and self-worth
• Why leadership evolves when you stop doing everything yourself
• The lessons learned from letting go, leaning in, and listening more than fixing

Lisa also reflects on what she’s witnessed inside salons this year  - owners getting off the floor, teams stepping up, finances stabilising, confidence returning, and the relief that comes when the business no longer runs the owner.

If you’re a salon, spa, or clinic owner who feels ready for a calmer, clearer, more intentional year ahead - this episode will land exactly where it needs to.

If this episode resonated, Lisa invites you to January Jump Start - a live event designed to help you reset your salon, refocus your leadership, and start the year with clarity, structure, and momentum.

This is for owners who don’t want another year of:

• Carrying the business alone
• Overworking on the floor
• Managing instead of leading
