Have you ever faced challenging personal times in your life and felt like you needed to put a pretend smile on and keep working in the salon without sharing anything with your clients? Or perhaps you've overshared and you're now wondering how to reset boundaries that feel more comfortable for you now. In this episode, we're discussing these questions and sharing self-care strategies to help hairdressers prevent burnout. I understand from personal experience that hairdressing, when things are tough, is hard. It's hard to manage our long hours and inflexible schedules as it is at times. It can be hard when you have to put the show on to pretend everything is ok. It becomes even more challenging when you're facing complicated life situations that could include a relationship breakdown, perhaps you're caring for a parent or loved one with a terminal illness or a new diagnosis that is challenging, or you're attending medical appointments yourself for treatments such as IVF or fertility support to name a few scenarios that are surprisingly common for us as humans that have chosen to work as hairdressers. I'm talking with psychotherapist Hayley Jepson about how to take care of yourself in tough times. ---------------------------- Want to learn more?
