How I Became A Master Aesthetician, Life/Wellness/Beauty Coach, Hypnotherapist and Ayurveda Practitioner
Having been a teenage mother 22 years ago I knew one day I would like to own my own business no matter how big or small. I worked for a dermatologist as a sterilization tech and I found his work fascinating! I planned on one day attending medical school to be a dermatologist but plans changed when I got pregnant and so I decided to still pursue my love for skincare but as an Aesthetician!
After receiving my certificate I completed other certificate programs which made me a specialist in various forms of peels, Microdermabrasion and electric modalities related to skincare. These extra certifications allowed me to become a medical master aesthetician and I was able to work with various physicians and plastic surgeons early in my career.
Until....
I realized I was being underpaid. I was not going to allow another person’s dream come to fruition but my own. It was then I decided to save up, buy all my own equipment, save up for a deposit and open up my own spa!
It was scary at first but through word of mouth and countless networking I jumpstarted my little business! There was some tough times but you can’t get anywhere without learning from mistakes and taking risks.
To bring in more income I knew I had to be able to provide my clients with other services outside my treatment menu so I became a certified life and wellness coach and received my certification as a Hypnotherapist too.
These services have become quite popular and I offer them via Skype to clients outside my area and internationally! I am bilingual so that has helped me getting clients in Mexico and Spain.
I also give group classes in the art of flirting, pole dance and makeup application! These are always soooo much fun!
Owning your own business often feels like you’re working more as what you make depends solely on you. Healthcare is not the best as you have to pay for your insurance plan yourself and those are often not the best. But is it worth it? Yes! Would I do it all over again? Definitely!

Have you ever owned your own business or do you own one now?
Would you do it again?

This post was chosen to be featured in this weeks SoCal Spotlight!! Thank you so much for being part of the #socalsteemit community.
Thank you!
the beautiful sexy lady is here again, happy to see somethig from you wish you all the best.
Thank you! Hope you are well!
Your life is always interesting to hear about. I think your choice of business sounds so interesting. I bet you meet some interesting people through your job. Working via skype is a brilliant idea. It's awesome your business has been so successful.
Aww you are sweet! It’s not easy working for yourself, but I don’t think I could ever go back to working for others. As a teacher you should look into teaching online! I have a friend who works for an online charter school and she loves working from home! I was thinking about that this morning and seems fun and convenient☺️
Just claimed my space on the internet via SteemIt a few months ago introducing myself as an Oracle for hire.
Its an awkward and slow start. And thats what it is, a start.
Cheers to fresh starts, abundance and happiness!
Kudos to you for taking charge of your own destiny! Lots of people who work for others are underpaid and under appreciated! So why not run your own business! It may be hard work but at least you are your own boss!
It’s hard work alright and I might not be rich yet but I could never go back to working for someone else!
