Live Coaching Session with Brittney Eileen Beauty

Live Coaching Session with Brittney Eileen Beauty

I’m sitting down for a very special, live coaching episode with one of my brilliant mentorship students, Brittney from Brittney Eileen Beauty! We just wrapped up her three-month mentorship journey, and instead of doing our final strategy call behind closed doors, we decided to bring the coaching session straight to the microphone. Brittney is an elite bridal makeup artist out of Boston who hit that classic $150k glass ceiling and knew she wanted to scale beyond the brush. In this episode, we break down her explosive social media growth during the program, including a video that hit over 3 million views, how she navigated her first massive wave of viral internet hate, and the exact steps we took to launch her new income streams in beauty education and brand partnerships. If you're ready to see what high-level business mentoring actually looks like in real-time, grab your notebook.

Why Your Health is Your Greatest Business Asset with Darcie Powell

I called this podcast More Than Makeup for a reason. As entrepreneurs, our health is our greatest business asset, yet so many of us in the wedding industry are running on caffeine and fumes. In this episode, I’m joined by my personal nutritionist, Darcie Powell, to talk about how to stop the 'starve and crash' cycle. We’re diving into the science of blood sugar, why your 'bridal breakfast' of black coffee is killing your energy, and how to fuel your body so you actually have a life left at the end of a wedding weekend. If you’ve ever felt like you’re hitting a wall by 2:00 PM or crashing for two days after a job, this episode is the wellness deep-dive you’ve been waiting for.

From Corporate to Creative: My Career Journey

I constantly get asked: 'Kellsie, how did your old career in corporate event planning impact the way you run your makeup business today?' The truth is, my old career built almost everything I do now. In this episode of More Than Makeup, I’m taking you down memory lane to discuss the transition from the corporate world to full-time artistry. We’re talking about the 'nudge' that tells you it’s time to quit, why your corporate skills are actually your secret weapon in the beauty industry, and how to know when you're ready to take the leap. Whether you’re currently working a 9-to-5 or you're already full-time and looking to bring more structure to your brand, this episode is a masterclass in professional evolution.   RESOURCES MENTIONED: * If you're feeling that nudge, here’s my masterclasses!

Makeup Artists and Influencers: The $1,000 Collaboration Debate

The makeup world has been noisy this week, but I’m not here for the negativity. In this episode of More Than Makeup, I’m taking the viral 'MUA vs. Influencer' debate and turning it into a high-level business masterclass. We’re moving past the $1,000 quote drama to talk about the actual strategy behind influencer marketing. I’m sharing my own experience with collaborations, how to audit your data to see what’s actually working, and why you need to stop making business decisions based on feelings. Whether you believe in paid collaborations or strictly 'pro-bono' artistry, this episode will help you understand how to use your analytics to grow your brand and your bank account.

I Lost $40,000 Last Week

I’ve debated whether to share this, but I refuse to only show you the highlight reel. In this episode of More Than Makeup, I’m sharing the raw, unfiltered story of how I lost $40,000 in less than 24 hours. This wasn't a bad investment or a scam; it was the result of a single decision I made at 3:00 AM in a hotel room to cancel my fully booked Toronto masterclass. I’m walking you through the 'perfect storm' of logistics, the high standards I refuse to compromise on, and the reality of what it costs to prioritize your reputation over your bank account. If you’ve ever faced a crisis in your business that tested your integrity, this episode is for you.
