The Skindustry

This week's episode is a little different 👀 

I'm getting ready for the SKIN&KIN event on Monday (today!) and thought it was the perfect time for a catch-up episode. I talk about the excitement of attending industry events, the importance of surrounding yourself with like-minded people, and why stepping away from your day-to-day environment can completely change your perspective.

I also share a recent situation involving another business tenant that tested my patience and got me thinking about something many business owners experience at some point in their journey... difficult people.

In this epis...

Have you ever felt like you're working harder on your client's skin than they are?

In this week's episode of The Skindustry Podcast, I'm diving into a topic that every skin specialist will relate to at some point in their career - how to be firmer with clients whilst still being fair, supportive and professional.

A fellow practitioner recently asked me how to deal with clients who expect life-changing results from facials but aren't willing to make the changes needed at home. Whether it's acne, rosacea, pigmentation, or ageing concerns, we often find ourselves repeating...

Today’s episode is a BIG one 👀⚡️

I’m joined by the incredible Emily from  Emily Jayne Skin Revision - acne specialist, educator and founder of the Advanced Acne Academy, and honestly, this conversation is one EVERY skin specialist needs to hear.

Fun fact - I actually completed Emily’s academy myself back in 2024 when she first launched, so this felt like a really full-circle conversation and one I’ve wanted to have for a long time.

We talk about the reality of treating acne in clinic beyond products, protocols and be...

This week on The Skindustry 🎙️✨

I’m talking all about the Functional Skin Academy event I attended last week, why it left me feeling SO inspired, and why getting yourself into the right rooms can completely change your mindset, motivation and business.

When you work alone, it’s so easy to get stuck in your own bubble, and sometimes being surrounded by like-minded people who genuinely understand your goals, struggles and ambition is exactly what you need to reignite your fire ⚡️

In this episode, we chat about:
• The importance of community in business
• Wh...

In this episode, I’m talking about something I think so many business owners are silently struggling with - burnout 🔥 

I open up about what burnout actually looked like for me behind the scenes, what led me there, and the moment I realised something had to change.

After constantly overworking, overfilling my diary, and convincing myself I just needed to “push through”, I finally made the terrifying decision to drop a day in clinic.

And within 5 minutes of announcing it… an opportunity I’d been quietly manifesting landed in my DM’s 👀 

This episode is ab...

If you feel like you need more clients to make more money… this episode is your reality check 👀 

Because more clients isn’t the answer - a better business model is.

I’m joined by my first ever guest, @bylaurenjohnson, who helps business owners build passive income, create multiple income streams, and scale in a way that doesn’t lead to burnout 🔥 

We break down why being fully booked can still leave you stuck, and how to start scaling your income without burning out 😴 

🧠 WE COVER:

• Why fully booked do...

Cheap prices aren’t just hurting your business - they’re damaging the entire industry 😢 

In this episode, I’m breaking down the real impact of undercharging, why it’s making it harder for skin specialists to be taken seriously, especially in the whole “medic vs non-medic” conversation, and how it’s affecting your ability to actually build a profitable, sustainable clinic 💰 

I’ll also walk you through exactly how to set your prices properly - including a simple formula to work out if your current pricing even makes sense 📈 

If you’re fully booked but still not ear...

Branding is one of the most overlooked parts of building a successful skin business… but it could be the exact reason you're not attracting the clients you actually want 👀 

In this episode, I’m breaking down why branding is so much more than just a logo or a colour palette, and how it directly impacts your ability to attract, convert and retain clients.

Because the truth is… people don’t just buy treatments anymore.
They buy into YOU!

If your brand feels inconsistent, unclear or disconnected, your dream clients will feel that - even if th...

Most new skin businesses are set up wrong… and it’s not your fault.

The industry is louder than ever.

More courses. More treatments. More pressure to do everything.

But no one is actually teaching you how to build a business that works.

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what I would do if I had to start my skin business from scratch in 2026… with no clients, no following, and no reputation.

This is the real foundati...

Everyone is talking about the new aesthetics regulations…

and honestly? The level of panic right now is unreal 👀

Group chats are blowing up

People are rushing into courses

Training academies are telling you what you “need” to do

But the truth is… a lot of it isn’t actually confirmed yet

In this episode, I’m breaking down the new regulations in Scotland, what’s actually happening, and what this could mean for England and the wider UK

We’re cuttin...

Everyone is using AI right now… but most people are using it completely wrong 👀 

If your content feels flat, robotic, or just isn’t converting, this episode is going to hit home 🤍

I’m breaking down exactly how I use AI in my business, from content planning and email marketing to offers, pricing and client education. But more importantly, I’m showing you why so many people are getting it wrong… and how to fix it.

Because let’s be honest, you can spot unedited ChatGPT content instantly. The tone...

In this episode of The Skindustry, we’re talking about one of the biggest things therapists struggle with in business - boundaries.

From last-minute cancellations and no-shows, to clients turning up late and expecting you to bend the rules, this episode dives into why clear policies are absolutely essential if you want to protect your time, income and sanity as a business owner.

I’m breaking down why deposits matter, how cancellation and no-show fees should work, and why consistency with your policies is so important. Because the truth is, if you bend the rules once...

Manifesting is everywhere right now. Vision boards, affirmations, “just believe and it will happen.” But is it actually real, or just another bit of business woo?

In this episode I’m getting honest about mindset, manifestation and what it actually looks like when you’re building a business behind the scenes.

I’m sharing my own experience with mindset over the years, how it’s helped me push through some of the hardest moments in business, and why manifesting on its own won’t magically change your life.

Because the truth is, belief without...
