365 Days to France 🇫🇷 | Episode 2: Building My Business & Getting My Life Together

🇫🇷 365 DAYS TO FRANCE | EPISODE 2 Getting Myself & My Business Together Welcome back to my 365 Days to France journey. 🇫🇷 In Episode 2, I’m focusing on something that doesn’t always look glamorous: building the foundation required for the life and business I want. This episode takes you behind the scenes of my everyday life as a cosmetologist, beauty entrepreneur, and luxury hair professional—from my morning routine and wellness habits to testing a new Smooth Filler service, taking care of my own hair, working with clients, and continuing to organize and develop my business. I’ve been thinking bigger about where I want my business to go, but I’m also learning that the international vision starts with getting the foundation right right here at home. This isn’t just about moving to France. It’s about building a business, lifestyle, and level of independence that gives me the freedom to live, create, study, travel, and eventually operate internationally. And I’m documenting the process—all of it. This isn’t just about moving to France. It’s about building a life that doesn’t require permission. 🇫🇷 ✨ WHAT I’M WORKING ON In this episode: • My morning routine, wellness & self-care • Testing my new Smooth Filler service • Taking care of my own hair as a beauty professional • Working with clients • Introducing new services into my catalog • Updating my Google Business Profile • Updating my GlossGenius portfolio • Finalizing my hair extension pricing • Continuing to develop my luxury beauty business • Working toward my custom hair & topper offerings • Building the foundation for an eventually international business 🛍️ SHOP MY ROUTINE These are some of the products featured in this episode. 🧴 Skincare & Self-Care Desert Essence Cinnamon Toothpaste https://amzn.to/45IJU5j Aveeno Calm + Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser https://amzn.to/4gNXLNT Sea Breeze Facial Astringent — Normal Skin https://amzn.to/4qBT9xu Vanicream https://amzn.to/3STKWbG 🍍 Wellness Wellah Creatine — Pineapple Mango flavor https://amzn.to/3STKWbG Ninja Blender https://amzn.to/4zED66o Fruit/Smoothie Ingredients https://amzn.to/4zBEdnh 💇🏽‍♀️ Hair Products I’m a Design Essentials girl through and through. 😂 Design Essentials Oatmeal & Henna Deep Cleansing Shampoo https://amzn.to/4grd2CU Design Essentials Bamboo & H2O Conditioning Leave-In Spray https://amzn.to/4cu5NsX Design Essentials Thermal Straightening Serum https://amzn.to/45IO797 💎 MY HAIR BUSINESS I also featured my 613 raw blonde hair extensions in this episode.
