Isn't that the truth!
When it comes to YOUR skin, please be kind to yourself! Remember that there is NO quick fix...invest yourself and some time into your skin!
You only have one skin... and it sometimes needs a little positive reinforcement to do the right thing! Think a 'hug' or a 'pat on the back' rather than putting it on the 'naughty step' 😁
Lets start at the very beginning…a very good place to start 🎼
I can’t help but sing when I hear that!! lol
So lets talk about YOUR SKIN!
Your skin is absolutely incredible! Did you know that?
Not only does it keep all of you ‘contained’ 😆 and ‘protected’ ...forming your bodies first line of defence, a barrier against the external environment...it does SO MUCH MORE!
It regulates your temperature
It heals itself when it is physically damaged
It removes waste products from your body
It helps absorb and synthesise Vitamin D
YOUR SKIN is one of the best indicators of how the rest of our body is feeling…it can tell you a story…and it also provides us with the most important sensorial experiences for the human race (in my opinion) - the sense of touch and feel – something every human desires!
Your skin is incredible! Lets look after it and listen to what it is telling us!
In a society where a huge emphasis is made on APPEARANCE and how outwardly attractive you are, it can be hard to shake off the feeling that you are not good enough!
We always see things worse than they actually are ... we emphasise the negative before looking at the POSITIVE!
I have been massively guilty for this in the past (yes, I am talking from personal experience!) ...focussing on the breakouts that I have struggled with for years and now the fine lines and wrinkles that are appearing as I move into my forties.
But I accept those imperfections now and I can work WITH my skin to make the changes.
Before we delve into the full geekiness of ... true skin confidence, empowerment and perseverance are three traits that I am PROUD to encourage in myself, my family and my clients!
The first thing I ASK you to do...find a mirror, look directly into the eyes of that AMAZING person stood in front of you...and say out loud
YOU ARE AMAZING!
YOU ARE WORTHY!
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
I LOVE YOU!
and BREATHE!
BEAUTY DURING COVID…AND BEYOND!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think that 2020 would pan out like this! Me and the rest of the world, right?
Something that has been niggling away at me for the last couple of months is ‘where are the positive news stories’? and ‘why can’t we find the Phoenix from these crazy Covid flames?’
I opened the doors to my home-based treatment room in January 2018. Elemental Skin & Beauty was my ‘new baby’, something to focus on and be absorbed in. The business grew from strength to strength, offering treatments to my guests including the facial treatments that I had become so passionate about. Life and the treatment room was steady, I had a happy medium of work and life and plodded along.
Fast forward to 23rd March 2020, and the announcement that the UK was going into ‘lockdown’ shut the physical doors to my business.
As a beauty therapist, like many others out there, I lost 100% of my business revenue overnight as I had focused solely on hands on treatments. Suddenly left with a lot of free time, but never one to sit still for long and still having bills to pay and mouths to feed, I found myself trawling the internet looking for inspiration.
I found solace in the shape of two very different online coaches – something I had never even considered for my business - with two very different methods and both on the other side of the world! But there are NO geographical boundaries during lockdown!
Stacey Sargison is a Visibility and Life Coach based in Sydney, Australia. For years I had admired Stacey’s tenacity and confidence, something that I had lost after having children and changing my own career. Her journey back from personal and financial ‘no mans land’ was something I could resonate with. Stacey engaged directly with me over the Internet and late night, very early on in Lockdown, I was glued to the iPad, binge watching lives when she started talking about ‘Selling Successfully’ – a programme that she was going to offer where she would show you how to continue to show up for your business even through a pandemic.
What did I have to lose?
Stepping out of my comfort zone was the only way I was going to get through this!
Pete Scott, Sales Coach and Creator of the Ultimate Sales Method, was working from a hut somewhere in Bali, Indonesia as a result of the pause on travel. Pete offered a fresh look at sales in the beauty industry.
Opening the doors to his Ultimate Sales Academy just to offer something to the masses, I joined a community of therapists engaging with his dynamic and energetic videos. I spent hours on Zoom calls with Pete, learning his Ultimate Sales methodology ... something that fitted into the corporate me and really resonated with my brain for figures and excel!
I found his no nonsense attitude to sales contagious and really started to transfer the skills that I had developed in my previous career into the beauty industry.
The combination was a game changer! My confidence started to grow…the Kat I had lost when I had the kids was returning to me and I loved it!
Who knew that in the midst of a global pandemic, that I could completely up my game and create something that would change my life!
I started offering virtual self-care skin care classes to my clients once a week through Facebook and Zoom to keep busy at first.
I pushed myself through my comfort zone, showing up as me. I learnt that by showing up for my ‘people’ I could grow my business organically and that I could be ‘me’ and that the right people would watch. I embraced my passion for skin and the science behind skincare.
Virtual facials with a group developed into one to one client sessions and online programmes, and a retail income that I had never had before.
Lockdown gave me permission to stop and re-evaluate where I was going in my life.
I have overcome my self-doubt and regained that confidence in myself.
I have successfully weathered the storm and believe I am coming out the other side with a very different business.
The Elemental Skin Coach has been lovingly created, using online platforms and amazing products from Nimue Skin Technology UK to provide bespoke skincare routines.
I am now working with clients across the UK and all over the world – no geographical limits like lockdown showed me – and launching the ‘Elemental Skin Society’, a monthly subscription service which can be offered in my treatment room and to my remote clients.
By taking my business online, with the support of Stacey’s coaching, showing up LIVE no matter what your situation and Pete’s Ultimate Sales Method, I have increased my confidence to show up and found my true purpose.
The Covid-19 pandemic has not just been a negative news story…for me, it has created opportunity.
It has enabled me to remember the resilience that is within me to commit…something that I now pass onto my clients, a commitment to pursue the success we know they can achieve, to realise their best skin and empower themselves to be truly skin confident! My business is truly a reflection of me!
And I thank 2020 for that learning experience.
BACKGROUND OF THE SKIN GEEK!
I’m not a creative person, more academic with scientific brain. I was a dowdy child, not much style, suffered terribly from acne and oily skin and used every high street ‘cure’ to try and improve it.
Four years at University, a degree in Geography and Geology from Keele University and a Masters degree in Environmental Science from University of Manchester. In 2000, I landed my dream job as a ‘Graduate Environmental Consultant’ for a company in Leeds. I lived, worked and dreamt about my job!
By 2008, I was married and had my son and my life no longer revolved around work! The 3 hour daily commute, 7am nursery drop off and 7pm pickup was just about bearable. But after just 8 months back at work I fell pregnant …then found out we were having twins! The girls arrived in 2010 after a difficult pregnancy and I was diagnosed with post-natal depression...
..two years off-sick focussing on being mummy and keeping myself sane, I began helping my friend with her beauty direct-selling business, my counsellor suggested I might enjoy a massage or a facial…I went one better!
I enrolled on a beauty course and therein started my career in the Beauty Industry.
It gave me something to focus on, an interest outside life at home and the depression. I went from being that anxious scared person I had become, to owning my life again! Passionate!
The ‘beauty’ of the Beauty Industry for me, using the business skills I developed in my first career with new skills I have gained to create a business I can mould into my own busy family life! I can make a real difference to someones life! My new career has given me the opportunity to live again! To take control of my future! I thrive on the challenge and the unexpected, the independence, the friendship and the potential of entrepreneurship.
No two skins are the same...almost like a fingerprint!
Your skin is not the same as your friends skin, your sisters skin, your mothers skin or the person down the roads skin!
Its not the same as the 'celebrity paid to promote the next big commercial product online or the TV' skin either!
To begin to realise YOUR healthiest, best skin, it is SO important to understand YOUR skin! What is it trying to tell you??
As a and , I have studied, continue to study, eat, sleep and breathe skin...I am truly passionate about helping YOU achieve the skin that you should have! I research the products I recommend to YOU and I invest myself in YOUR .
