KEY TAKEAWAYS:

--Brigette became a stylist, then a 6 figure stylist, then a salon owner before making a transition to coaching.

--After getting through a 2 year nasty divorce (which included bankruptcy on over $1M), she had to battle breast cancer twice! Getting through this has made her stronger to tackle other tasks and share her story with you!

--Brigette learned about NLP and timeline therapy which helped her throughout all of this!

--NLP: Neuro Linguistic Programing- a study of modeling excellence, practicing how to be mindful of your words and thoughts

--Timeline Therapy is just like Scrooge in A Christmas Carol where you go back and forward on your timeline through this work which includes hypnosis to work on making your life better!

--Do not get caught up in your clients' finances or stories. You have a business to run. Giving discounts to people who claim to have challenges with money is very disappointing when the client comes in next time talking about their travels and shopping sprees.

โ€œI THINK HAIRSTYLISTS ARE THE COOLEST, NICEST, AND MOST FUN GROUP OF PEOPLE ON THE PLANET! I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT USHERING IN AN EMPOWERED-STYLIST FUTURE, AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE GETTING STYLISTS FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE TOGETHER IN A NON-COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE CAN LEARN, LAUGH, AND GROW TOGETHER.โ€
-Said by ME!
Robert started his hair journey as a kid in rural America offering haircuts on the street to kids in the neighborhood, not realizing, one day, he would find himself working the front desk at a hair salon while in high school. From there, his experience from salon-to-salon has included the front of the house, back of the house, stylist, educator, and consultant. It was during this movement through various salons he developed a passion to empower stylists and educate owners on how to raise the industry standard of excellence, mutual respect, and professionalism amongst stylists, managers, owners, and clients. Robert currently is the General Manager and a Master Stylist at Violet Salon in Georgetown, DC.
