from Brazen and Bold: Real, Raw, and Radically Honest Conversations for Entrepreneurs and Small Business Leaders · host Lauren Gartland

If you've ever whispered to yourself "I just want my life back" — this episode is for you. Lauren Gartland of Inspiring Champions sits down with Heather and Lucy of Spark Pro Global for a raw, no-fluff conversation about what it actually takes to stop doing everything yourself and start leading like the CEO you are. From panic attacks mid-client to doubling profit margins, Heather and Lucy share the real stories, the hard lessons, and the practical steps that helped them — and the salon owners they serve — reclaim their time, their energy, and their businesses. In this episode, you'll learn: •⁠  ⁠Which tasks salon owners should never be doing themselves (hint: most of it is on your phone) •⁠  ⁠How to find hidden revenue already sitting in your salon software — untouched •⁠  ⁠What delegation actually looks like in practice, not just in theory •⁠  ⁠Why the biggest ceiling in your business might be you — and what to do about it Whether you're running a 5-chair salon or a multi-location operation, this conversation will challenge the way you think about your role, your time, and what becomes possible when you finally get out of your own way. 🌐 Inspiring Champions: https://www.inspiringchampions.com/ Follow Lauren: 📸 Inspiring Champions — https://www.instagram.com/inspiringchampions/?hl=en 📸 Lauren — https://www.instagram.com/gartland.lauren/?hl=en 🔗 LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauren-gartland-0aa19a26/ Branding and consistency are everything.
