Show notes

Hi Roomies! Enjoy this solo episode with Tess highlighting her favorite esthetics courses to take outside of school! Some classes are free or virtual so there's no reason NOT to continue learning while quarantined. We hope it helps you to go beyond the basic education provided in school. I hope everyone is doing as amazing as they can be in quarantine. I know it can be difficult if you are in esthetician school to stay motivated, keep your eye on the prize and continue to learn. I hope this information is the encouragement you need to keep pushing yourself forward!
