405. Balancing Lashes & Life: Sisterhood, Motherhood, and Staying True to Your Why

In this heartfelt episode of LashCast, we welcome Canadian sister duo Monica Vipond of Peace Lash and Mel Temple of Glitz Lash Studio to dive deep into what it means to build a lash business around your real priorities—family, flexibility, and fulfillment. With over a decade of experience each, these two share how motherhood inspired them to leave their corporate careers behind and carve out home-based businesses that honor their values and their kids’ schedules. They talk candidly about burnout, boundary-setting, and resisting the pressure to “do it all” in an industry that often glorifies hustle culture.From losing a major Instagram account to launching a product line, Monica and Mel open up about their biggest challenges and most powerful lessons. Their story is a refreshing reminder that success isn’t one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re just lashing solo in your basement or chasing bigger business dreams, this conversation will encourage you to define success on your own terms—and prioritize the people who matter most.LASHCON TICKETSThe moment you've been waiting for is here—LASHCON 2025 tickets are officially ON SALE!  Over 60% of VIP tickets are already SOLD!
