I CHANGED MY LIFESTYLE & FOUND SUCCESS IN LIFE & BIZ | JENNY KHAN | CO-FOUNDER, INDUSTRY ALIGNED & STYLIST, INDIE ATELIER | IL

Tune in to hear how Jenny focused on her mental and physical health to find success and create Industry Aligned!

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

-- After 11 years at a salon, I started my Independent career w/ the intention of leading a healthier life!

-- Working non-stop, never saying no to any client, eating whatever I wanted whenever I wanted, going through prolonged periods of not eating, and consuming toxins like alcohol and cigarettes led me to feel terrible about myself in every way.

-- I thought money was my problem, but it was my mental health being hampered by my poor physical health.

-- If you can afford alcohol, cigarettes, and/or buy lunch/dinner but have no money to save or invest in your future, It is Time for a Change!

-- You can only do so much without help. Be willing to pay pros to help you with your physical, mental, and financial health!

“I 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.”
-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.
