Just a Beauty Therapist! A cheeky podcast for beauty therapists who are tired of being underestimated.
It’s like a break room chat — if the break room had wine, no clients, and all the juicy tips, tricks, and real talk you actually want.
We’re sharing our knowledge to build a community that empowers each other through education, connection, and a whole lot of laughs.
Hosted by Shamara Jarrett
Episode 26 - How to build Community, in an industry known for a competition mindset
In this episode of Just a Beauty Therapist, I sit down with Liana Saunders, founder of You Beauty Townsville, to talk about something I think our industry needs more of: Community.
For so long, beauty business owners have been conditioned to look at the clinic down the road as the competition. To compare, protect, and sometimes keep our distance. But what if we changed that mindset?
Liana and I talk about the power of connecting with other business owners, what happens when we stop seeing each other as a threat, and why having people around you who truly understand the highs and lows of running a clinic can make such a difference.
We unpack comparison, competition, collaboration, and the pressure social media can create when it feels like everyone else is doing better than you. We also talk about the value of sharing knowledge, celebrating each other’s wins, asking for help, and building genuine relationships with people in the industry.
Because running a beauty business can be lonely, and some of the best support can come from the people who understand exactly what you are navigating.
This episode is for therapists and clinic owners who want to build stronger connections, feel less isolated in business, and rethink what competition really means.
There is room for more than one successful clinic. There is room to collaborate, learn from each other, and grow together.

Episode 25 - The Money Reset: Taking Control of Your Business Finances with Gemma Mitchell
In this episode of Just a Beauty Therapist, I sit down with Gemma Mitchell, Senior Financial Adviser at Rask, money coach, author of The Money Reset, and co-host of The Australian Finance Podcast.
With over twenty years in banking and finance, Gemma has made it her mission to help people, particularly women feel confident and in control of their money.
In our industry, we pour everything into clients, treatments, and results, but money is the conversation we tend to avoid. So many clinic owners are highly skilled at what they do, yet are left to work out the financial side on their own.
Together, Gemma and I unpack what actually matters for business owners: the key numbers every clinic owner should know, the difference between making money and managing it, how to pay yourself properly, when debt becomes a problem, and how to balance reinvesting in your business with looking after yourself. We also dig into the habits behind long-term wealth, and why financial success comes down to behaviour as much as knowledge.
This episode is for clinic owners who are brilliant in the treatment room but want that same clarity and confidence with their finances. If money has felt like the missing piece in your business, this conversation is for you.
