Inner Work, Outer Growth

Growth is rarely as glamorous as the finished groom. Sometimes it looks like learning a new technique, raising your prices, or finally feeling confident behind the table. Other times, it looks like confronting imposter syndrome, releasing comparison, setting boundaries, and admitting that protecting your body, time, and peace is part of becoming a better groomer too.Fresh off the Heart of America show in Kansas City, Steph and Brenda pull up their chairs for an honest, slightly chaotic conversation about the work beneath the work.

May your pets be clean and your spirit glow.
