Ep2: Faith, Wellness, and Putting in the Work when Life Happens
In this episode of Beyond The Chair, I sit down with my friend Nikki Brooks Seevers for an honest conversation about wellness, faith, and what it really looks like to rebuild when life forces a pivot you didn’t plan for.We talk about transitions that aren’t strategic, the emotional weight of entrepreneurship, and the work of staying grounded when your business, your purpose, and your personal life are all shifting at once. This conversation isn’t about having it all figured out — it’s about continuing anyway.Recorded during an earlier chapter of Nikki’s journey, this episode captures the truth of navigating change in real time and reminds us that rebuilding isn’t failure — it’s evolution.If you’re in a season of transition, carrying vision while figuring things out as you go, this one is for you.

Ep 1: Advocacy and Access
In the first episode of Beyond The Chair, Marriah Jones chats with Delegate Kent Roberson for a conversation about advocacy, access, and accountability from local leaders.When small businesses hit regulatory walls, who steps in—and why does access to government support so often depend on who you know? This episode unpacks the policy blind spots that leave beauty professionals overlooked despite representing a billion-dollar industry, and why organizing, visibility, and leadership are critical to long-term survival and growth.This conversation challenges the idea that beauty is “soft work” and reframes it as real infrastructure, real jobs, and real community power.This episode sets the foundation for Beyond The Chair—where beauty, business, and policy intersect.
