Hello Everyone,

I would like to talk about Beautiful Minds, a charity about mental health within our industry. This is a daily growing issue in our world right now and we are big supporters backing anything that will help mental health. Beautiful minds was set up by a friend of ours Christopher Kitchen. We will be sharing his story and more about the Charity in the coming weeks on our podcast ” The Life Of KG” but please see below their latest press release and links so you can learn more.

Beautiful Minds 2019 March 1st

I would first like to thank everybody who has supported Beautiful Minds already.

Considering the project was only announced on the 21stof January, the response has been phenomenal!

We’d love your help to keep this momentum going as with close to 7months to go and some incredible events planned we really have the potential to make a great impact on the industries attitude towards mental health and hopefully send a lasting and positive message to everybody that the easiest way to help yourself is by helping each other ?

Beautiful Minds was announced as running from September 1-15thbut I have decided to relax this time frame to allow even more participation, with over 60 techs, Educators and salons planning fundraisers already! We’d love your help to encourage more to participate and all enquires can be directed via the Beautiful Minds Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/beautifulminds150919/

The next scheduled fundraiser is hosted by Gemma Lambert and The Nail Team on March 11thwith all the event details here https://www.facebook.com/events/310705026463882/?ti=ia

I have also managed to convince industry icons Kirsty Meakin and Katie Barnes to participate in a sponsored skydive to raise money for PAPYRUS a Charity who work to prevent suicide in young people, and are a Charity whom are very important to my personal journey.

We are aiming to raise £15,000 for this event alone with a video ready to be published on the Naio Nails YouTube channel featuring myself being treated to a Beautiful Minds inspired design from Kirsty herself to promote it!

The Beautiful Minds Finale is really starting to take shape after a pre-PB visit to the Royal Hotel in Clacton to start putting plans into place with our generous hosts Georgie and Jason Smedley.

Donations for our Goodie bags have been offered from product suppliers from all areas of the beauty industry and the lots already confirmed for the charity auction promise a great night.

We of course would like to welcome you to contribute to the event in anyway you can whether that be via sponsorship for the event (please contact me directly for further details) Donations for the goody bags or auction or anything you think would help make the night as memorable as possible for everybody taking the time to come and support Beautiful Minds.

Once again thank you for taking the time and wanting to support Beautiful Minds, this is something I’ve been organising single handily behind the scenes for a few months, but to see the response after only 5 weeks of me announcing it has been the most positively emotional experience of my life and the support shown by everybody I saw at Pro Beauty this past weekend has only increased my optimism that together we can achieve something really special

Below are all the links to our social media and it would mean a lot if you could share the information wherever possible ?

Yours gratefully

Christopher KitchenBeautiful Minds

It’s always been our CEO – Katie Godfrey, dream to be part of a book. Let alone be called a “No1 best selling Author”

Katie has always preached about how reading has helped her through business and learning. Katie said in a blog once “Remember one tip, you are the books you read, the movies you watch, the people you spend your time with, the conversations you engage with. So choose wisely what you feed your mind with”

This book is about 12 amazing, successful business women from all industries. It’s great to read for some inspiration, ideas and guidance. Defiantly a must have on the book shelf.

Just a few points of what it takes to be successful. It is not an easy ride and my saying as everyone knows – If it were easy everyone would do it.

Persistence – No matter what you have to do keep knocking at the door, fighting, and spite of how difficult it is. Never give up.

Late nights – If you’re an entrepreneur, you will most probably find you hit the pillow and your mind will be buzzing. So you find yourself up working through the night. I find that’s when I work best.

Dedication – Being fully committed to your business or goal. Don’t let your mind run off course and keep focus on that end result.

Hard Work – Like I said it’s not easy. Social life will take a back seat while your building. Long hours and just generally cannot switch off. But it’s all part of the buzz.

Rejections – No matter what business you are in, you will always come across rejection. Whether that’s a client going elsewhere, a buyer not interested in a product or not being able to sign that deal you was so close to. Even trying to get that business finance to start your business. Just keep going – Never let a rejection knock you down as your will have this throughout your career. You will learn how to deal with rejection and become stronger rather than taking it personal.

Sacrifices – While your building you need to sacrifice anything that’s going to distract you. That party that’s going to cause you to have a hangover for the next two days – Or maybe a holiday that will pull you out the loop for a week and not the best time. Maybe a group of “friends” that aren’t a positive influence in your life.

Criticism – You will get people giving you disapproval on your goals. Judging your business and what “they” would do differently. But constructive criticism is great. Choose what you want to take from people’s criticism and push out the negative.

Failure – Even with the most successful entrepreneurs they have failed at something during their journey. 8 out of 10 businesses fail within the first 18 months. Don’t be afraid of failure. Study, learn, hear and change what your business needs before it gets to this point. Failure is not bad; you can change it round to a good.

Doubts – Whether to start a business or something new within an existing business. Knowing whether to grow your team or bring in a new product. You will always have doubts. You have to decide what is best for you and business and most of all if your finances can take the change.

Risks – Business will always be a risk. Risk of going bankrupt, risk of the business not working, not pulling in the business you need. If you are not a risk taker I wouldn’t even try to start a company.

Salon owners: stepping out of the salon and working on your business objectives.

One of the main subjects I am questioned about the most is working on the business side of things rather than working in the actual salon, and the business side can be rather daunting at times. I really enjoy doing treatments as they are my passion and the main reason I started my business, I love talking with my clients, working alongside my team and most of all I love lashing and making clients feel beautiful.

But, my business would never grow to what it has if I still had my own column. So for my company to expand and my team to perform as successfully as they do it was necessary for me to step away from working in the salon full time.

With all of the background work there is to do such as accounting, salaries, staff appraisals, planning team meetings, advertising & marketing, social media, writing magazine articles, working on my other businesses, judging competitions, staff training, mentoring talks for students and writing policies. Plus an array of other tasks It would be virtually impossible for me to still lash too!

It’s all about a work and life balance and I didn’t have any when I had a column! All of the above tasks were done outside of my salon hours, which meant I was only actually giving it only 20% of my effort and to say I was exhausted after a salon day is an understatement. But nowadays I give the business side my all, 100% of my dedication. I still work around sixty hours plus a week, but I choose to do this.

This gives me time to go to the salon and see the salon from a customer perspective rather than a therapist, which keeps the customer service in the salon very strong.
I conduct regular training sessions with my wonderful team to ensure they are the best they can be. This also gives me the added advantage to help out the therapists on busy days when needed, so I am always flexible to step into my beautician shoes again which I love.

I stepped away from my column nearly three years ago now but I do still work on occasional Saturday’s purely because I want to as I love the salon atmosphere. However, last Saturday was my first week stopping my column again due to other on-going business commitments. Instead I worked on the reception which enabled me to still work in the salon but concentrate on the business side of things. I did get itchy feet though and I just wanted to pick up my tweezers and lash! but I have to keep focused and concentrate on the bigger picture, that being the business side.

If you want to know more about how you can move your column over to your team, start tripling your income and how to start working more efficiently on your business rather than struggling to do treatments and your business objectives then get in touch today for more details on my mentoring services.

So today I went to church… (yes I go to church) It was pretty apt too as it was about the day of rest and why it’s important to take that day of rest that God gave us.

Anyone who knows me well, knows that Sundays are my favourite day of the week and how important they are to me. Sundays are the ONE day I refuse to work, the one day I’m not bothered about my phone and the one day I can spend with my daughter and loved ones without any interruptions at all. 100% quality time.


Those of you that run businesses, working all hours God sends….. make sure you take 1 day off a week to do NOTHING work related. Just chill, unwind, reflect and enjoy time with your family and friends without any stress getting in the way.
It’s so important and will prepare you for the successful week your going to have ahead.

Have a great week everyone ❤

Lots of wishes and dreams,
