Work, partner, kids, maintaining everyday life, I could go on, but I think you get the point: we juggle a lot in the day-to-day.

And as an aesthetician, that juggling act only grows more chaotic if you add in back-to-back clients and/or running your own business, which makes it all too easy to move healthy eating habits to the back burner (pun intended).

Even in running and building my own business where I have a lot of time freedom to create my own schedule and don’t have to shovel down every scrap of food I can pull together and call it a “lunch” between clients, I still struggled with creating a cohesive, healthy eating plan.

That is until I found today’s guest on the podcast.

In this episode of Spa Marketing Made Easy, I’m joined by Jasmine Schmalhaus, the founder of Your Dinner Is Planned, to talk all about how we can get on track with maintaining a consistent plan of action for healthy meal-making that fuels our bodies and our businesses.  

To say her program and recipes are helpful would be an understatement. They’ve completely transformed how I prepare food for myself and my family, and I can’t wait for you to discover how fun and easy meal planning can be when you’ve got a system.

And whether you’re only looking out for you, or you’ve got a whole brood to cook for, Jasmine’s tips are for everyone because the truth is we all need proper nourishment to give our best to our families, clients, our businesses, and ourselves so that we can achieve what we really want most out of life.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• How healthy eating doesn’t just benefit us personally, but also benefits our business efforts
• There’s no definition of “healthy,” but rather a spectrum, and how to examine it through the lens of your lifestyle
• Jasmine’s five foundational tips for quickly crafting a weekly healthy meal plan that’s delicious and easy to stick to
• My personal journey with struggling to make healthy meals while juggling life and how I’ve incorporated Jasmine’s tips into my family’s life

Even though I conduct trainings for hundreds of people at a time via webinars and speak on stages (sometimes in front of camera crews, sometimes in front of live audiences), there’s something about me that may surprise you…


I’m not a natural public speaker.

The truth is, public speaking can stress me out and get me flustered if I let it, but with many things in life and business, I believe that with intentional preparation, those butterflies can quickly be overcome.


After all, life is too short to only live within the confines of your comfort zone.

The good stuff, the out-of-this-world, perfect-fit opportunities that you dream about require doing things when you’re afraid.

However, when you work on possessing this one quality, you’ll find that doing things outside your comfort zone (like marketing and selling, for example) gets a lot easier.

So, this week I’ve got a quick-listen episode for you, but it’s one with a message you need to hear if you want all the rest of the information I share here on the podcast and in the podcast Facebook community to work.

In this episode, I’m also presenting a challenge with some ideas to get you inspired and motivated to jump outside your comfort zone, so be sure to keep the conversation going in the Spa Marketing Made Easy group where our community can help cheer you on, hold you accountable, and provide feedback.

I’ll see you in there!

In this episode you’ll discover:

• The surprising thing that can make me nervous in business and how I overcome it
• The behind-the-scenes of how I prepare to do things outside of my comfort zone
• The core issues as to why you may not be hitting your sales numbers and steps you can take today to resolve it

If there’s one thing I see across the aesthetic industry whether it’s solo aestheticians or spa owners with an established team, it’s that mindset and confidence is something 99.9% of us have dealt with, struggled with, or could currently improve upon.

And if you’re one to think mindset is “woo-woo” topic, think again, because as today’s guest, Dr. Shannon Irvine, explains, mindset is a matter of science.

Today we’re discussing how successful people think and apply their thoughts to their lives and businesses in a way that allows them to have more significant achievement in actualizing the vision they’ve set out to accomplish and how you can do the same.

Here’s more of what you’ll learn in this episode:

• The science behind how our thoughts impact our brain’s patterns and our resulting actions
• Why our brains are wired for efficiency and how we can use this knowledge to both break negative thought patterns and create new ones
• What to “feed” your brain daily to make your vision a reality
• How many of us get to a place of needing to retrain our brain and Dr. Shannon’s 4 “R” process to self-navigate the process of creating a mindset for success
