I’ve been a little quiet on here lately… and it wasn’t by accident.
I’ve been building.
Behind the scenes, I’ve been developing the next phase of this work, and taking it beyond Ireland.
In June, I’ll be delivering my first workshop in the UK.
📍 London
📅 June 22nd
The Brave Salon Leader
This work is for salon owners and leaders in the hair & beauty industry who are ready to step into a different level of leadership, not just in how they run their business, but in how they show up within it.
Because leadership in this industry isn’t about being the busiest, the most booked, or doing the most.
It’s about clarity.
Standards.
Confidence.
And the ability to lead people, including yourself properly.
This is a big step for me.
And one I’ve taken with real intention.
If you’re based in the UK and this speaks to you, I’d love to hear from you.

Hearing how this work is making an impact for salon owners is exactly why I created The Brave Salon Leader🤍
Emma joined the course and her reflection perfectly captures what the day is all about, stepping back, gaining clarity on leadership, strengthening your team culture, and leaving with practical steps you can implement straight away in your salon.
Creating strong, supportive salon environments doesn’t happen by accident. It comes from intentional leadership, clear communication, and investing in the growth of your team.
If you’re a salon owner or leader who wants to feel more confident guiding your team, building culture, and developing your people,
this day is for you.
✨ The Brave Salon Leader is coming to Cork on March 30th.
Spaces are limited.

I’m incredibly grateful to be featured in the January issue of Creative HEAD talking about something I’m really passionate about, helping salons Refocus. Reset. Reignite.
Our industry is changing fast. Rising costs, evolving client expectations and team pressures mean the old ways of running salons simply don’t work anymore.
That’s why I’ve developed a Mindset & Business Reset Workshop, designed to help teams reconnect with purpose, strengthen culture, improve communication and create a more consistent client experience.
It’s not a meeting.
It’s not a motivational talk.
It’s a real reset for teams who want to grow with clarity and confidence.
A huge thank you to Creative HEAD for the feature and for believing in the work I’m doing to support salons and their teams.
If you’re a salon owner or manager reading this and thinking your team would benefit from something like this, I’d love to work with you.
For team development, salon culture or management support, feel free to message me here to start the conversation.

This is why I created Brave.
Not for ‘more information’.
But for moments like this…
👉 Walking in overwhelmed
👉 Carrying everything
👉 Feeling stuck
👉 Doubting yourself
…and walking out with:
✔️ Clarity
✔️ Confidence
✔️ A simple plan
✔️ Control again
Clare’s words mean everything to me.
Because she’s been there. She’s living it.
📍 The Address, Cork | March 30th

Feeling incredibly grateful to be a finalist for Educator of the Year.
What makes this so meaningful is that it’s not for technical skills, it’s for the work I do through consultancy, shining a light on culture, systems, operations, and team development.
The work that builds strong, sustainable businesses.
The work that supports people to grow with confidence.
The work that lasts.
None of this happens without salon owners, leaders, and teams believing in what I teach and committing to doing things properly.
That belief is everything.
Feeling beyond honoured and thankful.🤍

I didn’t plan to bring Brave Salon Leader to Cork this quickly.
But after Dublin booked out overnight, I knew I couldn’t leave it there.
So… by popular demand, it’s coming home. 💛
This workshop is for salon owners and managers across hair, beauty, spa, and wellness who are carrying a lot right now.
Running a business.
Leading a team.
Looking after clients.
Trying to stay motivated.
Trying not to burn out.
And often doing it quietly.
Brave Salon Leader is about learning how to lead with clarity, confidence, and calm.
Not pressure.
Not pretending.
Not “pushing through”.
It’s about:
✔️ Setting standards without guilt
✔️ Having proper conversations with your team
✔️ Feeling steady in your decisions
✔️ Building respect, for yourself and your business
If you’ve been thinking about joining Elevate in the future, this is the perfect place to start.
It gives you the foundations.
The mindset.
The structure.
Everything else builds from here.
If you’re ready to feel more in control, more confident, and more supported — this is for you.
Cork, I can’t wait to work with you. 🤍

Feeling very humbled and grateful to be nominated as a finalist for Director of the Year.
It’s hard to put into words what this recognition means.
It represents years of showing up, through the good seasons, the wobbles, the doubts, the learning curves, and the moments where I questioned myself.
None of this happens on its own.
It happens because of an incredible team who believe in what we’re building, who live our culture every day, and who care deeply about doing things properly, with pride, integrity and heart.
That’s where real recognition lives.
And now, through VF Consultancy, I get to share everything I’ve learned, the wins and the lessons, with others in this industry, which is something I’m deeply proud of.
Thank you to everyone who has walked this journey with me.
This means more than you know. 🤍

SOLD OUT
Elevate 4 is taking place this Monday at Accademia, Dublin, and I’m so proud to say that every participant from Elevate 1, 2 & 3 is returning once again.
This is leadership in action.
Commitment to growth.
And a deep understanding that culture doesn’t sustain itself, systems do.
Elevate 4 is where we step into the structure behind strong leadership:
creating systems that lead, support decision-making, and align fully with the culture we’ve built together.
I’m genuinely looking forward to being back in the room with this group as we continue their leadership and management journey layer by layer, with intention.
Thank you to each of you for trusting the process and showing up again.
