PhorestFM: Building a Stronger Industry, Together · Jennifer Jade Alvarez on Where AI & Automation Can Drive Impact in an Industry Built on Human Connection (w/ Rich Cullen) · 3 Apr 2026 podcast

Development hasn't been rushed because we've had to ensure Forest AI amplifies the human connection, building trust in an industry built on it.

We've been our own harshest critics.

And the reality is, as with any new technology, people are bound to have strong feelings about it.

And we believe that the Force FM podcast has matured enough to hold those two truths at once.

And so with that, even though they weren't created specifically for this conversation, in fact they were created

And now let me introduce you to this week's guest, Jennifer Jade Alvarez.

Jennifer knows what it's like to build something from nothing.

A licensed cosmetologist since 2002, she spent years behind the chair navigating the same doubt, burnout, and uncertainty that so many owners know all too well before turning that struggle into a roadmap.

Today, she's the founder of Refined Beauty, a salon spa in Naperville, Illinois, and three-time Salon Today 200 Honoree.

After retiring from behind the chair in 2023, Jennifer channeled everything she learned into helping other owners build smarter, more sustainable businesses through her Salon CEO Method coaching program and the Beauty Business Game Changer Podcast.
