"The things you want in life will force you to level up. You have to be willing to let go of what may have worked out for you at one point, but isn't working out for you any more." -Anianne Rivera, Lead Trainer, Director of Education, Natural Beaded Rows™️, Big Money Stylist® ========================== Ever just feel afraid of success sometimes-- even though you want it so much? It's a confusing dilemma: when you're already doing pretty good, but you want to have more, do more, and, most importantly, BE more...but you're ultimately too afraid to let go of what's already "pretty good", even though "f**king amazing" is right within your reach. The desire is there, but the courage won't show its face. Classic. So--how do you find that courage to drop the excuses and overcome that fear of letting go of something that ultimately served you well, in order to gain something that will serve you even more; in order to become someone greater than who you were yesterday?In this latest powerhouse episode of the Big Money Stylist Podcast, Danielle is back behind the mic with Anianne as they discuss ways to overcome our fears of letting go of something "good" in order to make room to become even greater than what we can currently imagine.

Why is it sometimes so damn hard to listen to your own voice -- you know, the voice that's telling you that something isn't right, or that something needs to change, and that something needs change NOW... ?
Why do we sometimes ignore the voice inside the most when it starts screaming the loudest?
In the latest episode of the BMS podcast, Danielle and Ani get fired up about why it's sometimes so f**king hard to be honest with ourselves and with others - and discuss how learning to embrace radical honesty in all areas and with all people can give us the courage we need to face our biggest problems - and ultimately find our greatest solutions - head on.
Quotes of the week:
"If you don't learn your lesson, life will continue to repeat that lesson -- and sometimes in an even bigger way and with a much harder fall -- until you decide to become humble and surrender to what your current reality is trying to teach you."

"If you don't address the problem, you're never gonna know the solution."

Let's be honest for a moment here: why do we sometimes care more about marketing to a potential new client, but then once we've secured their investment, we sometimes kind of stop caring as much?
How honest are we really about how well (or how poorly) we treat our customers? Where and how often are we taking accountability for the customer service experience within our own business(es)?
In this unsurprisingly SPICY episode of the BMS podcast, Danielle and Anianne get real af about the customer service experience and discuss simple yet game-changing approaches that can help build client trust and satisfaction that will last for years to come.
Quotes of the week:
"There's always something you can learn, even if you don't agree with that person's opinion of why a customer experience went south. "
- Danielle K. White, Founder, Owner, DKW Styling Salon®, Natural Beaded Rows™️, Big Money Stylist®
"I want to you think about these two questions: 1. Are you taking accountability for your customer service? 2. Are you providing a service that reflects the money that you're charging?"

Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you're working on something, you're just not making any progress? How do you overcome the sometimes addictive and dreadful thoughts of "I'm just not good enough" or "I'm just not seeing any progress" or "I don't think I can do this" -- and just push forward, even if it's just enough to acknowledge just how far you've really come?
How do we notice the lessons and transform them into measured leaps forward within both our personal and professional lives?
And then how do we keep that progress cemented and continuous?
In this new episode of the BMS podcast, Danielle and Anianne discuss just how the simple act of keeping track of the progress we make - whether big or small - can help us find (and keep) continuous gains in every area of our life.

Setting personal and professional boundaries that are both effective and long-lasting can sometimes be SO difficult... And, once they are set in place, it can be even harder to KEEP them there.
Whether it be with clients, relatives, close friends, or co-workers - or even business partners, a domestic partner, or a significant other - setting and keeping boundaries that are clear and healthily firm is arguably one the most crucially necessary habits to maintaining the priceless integrity of our mental, physical, and emotional health and well-being.
So when we know it's time to set that boundary in our professional and/or personal lives, how do we overcome the guilt and shame so we can just do what we know is actually the right thing for us? And is selfishness a good thing in this scenario?
In this new episode, Danielle and Anianne discuss the very real and tricky dance of setting personal and professional boundaries and more - plus talk about various ways to commit to making and keeping healthy boundaries established in our daily personal and professional lives.
Quotes of the week:
"You just kinda just need to let go of those feelings - that GUILT - and process it to where you're like, "okay, I feel fine. I've moved on. And here's what I learned from it."
- Danielle K. White, Founder, Owner, DKW Styling Salon®, Natural Beaded Rows™️, Big Money Stylist®
"The only people who get upset about you setting boundaries are the ones benefiting from you having none."

Overconfidence can oftentimes be the precursor to major disappointment. We believe that our natural abilities in a certain area are so good, that we get the idea in our heads that we cannot fail. And, then, when we do inevitably fail...we wonder if we were any good to begin with.
This moment can cause either one of two feelings:
1. Fear: "an unpleasant, often strong emotion caused by anticipation or awareness of danger"
or
2. Panic: "a sudden overwhelming fear, with or without cause, that produces hysterical or irrational behavior, and that often spreads quickly".
So, when we feel either of these feelings, how do we calm these sudden emotional tides - whether it be at home or in the workplace - so that we can start focusing on the right things, move forward with stronger clarity, and perform to the best of our natural abilities?
In this new episode of the BMS podcast, Anianne Rivera and guest host Katie Guthrie discuss their most humbling moments of failure, how they overcame their fear and panic, and how they challenged their comfort zones and broke open the ceilings of their own limitations to reach new levels of success.
Quotes of the week:
"People get so stuck on the "wrong thing" that they never launch anything. And even, especially, I feel like it's the wrong thing - because the RIGHT thing they should focus on is outside of their comfort zone and outside their natural ability."
- Ani Rivera, Lead Trainer, Director of Education, Natural Beaded Rows™️, Big Money Stylist®
"Is any method going to be flawless 100% of the time? No. Because humans are all different. Every client is different. What really is important, is understanding how to evaluate your own work so that you know what is going wrong so that you can improve upon it."
- Katie Guthrie, Director of Events and Operations, DKW Styling Salon, Natural Beaded Rows™️
