Realigned.
That’s how Michelle describes her journey back to herself, her family, and a business that truly fits her life.

In this episode of Beyond Esthetics, we sit down with Michelle — a small-town Canadian esthetician, mom, and former spa owner — who shares how she got into Esthetics and the spiritual journey that was so integral, how she went from managing a team to choosing simplicity, purpose, and alignment and what success truly means to her now! This is one of the most spiritually inspiring conversations we've ever done that gave us chills all the way through! 

She takes us inside the emotional pivot of downsizing, the systems that support her peace, and her recent journey into the Enneagram and self-discovery work that's helped her lead with more clarity and confidence than ever before.

✨ This one is for every beauty pro who’s ever felt like “more” isn’t always better.

Realigned | Redefining Success On Your Own Terms featuring Michelle Knoll

Pull up a chair and pour yourself something cozy — because this episode feels like a heart-to-heart with your closest esty girlfriends.

We’re bringing back one of our favorite humans, Erin Malinski, for a soul-deep conversation that’s been a long time coming. This one is for the beauty pros who are done with the comparison trap, tired of pretending they have to do it all alone, and ready to step into something more… aligned, authentic, and connected.

Together with Erin, we unpack what “community over competition” really looks like — not just as a cute phrase, but as a powerful way to lead, live, and build a sustainable business. This value is the heartbeat of Beyond Esthetics, and in this episode, you’ll hear why.

✨ We talk about:

 * How comparison can sneak into your career (and what to do about it)
 * The real growth that comes from collaboration and support
 * Personal stories from all three of us about letting go of ego and choosing connection
 * Why mentorship, community, and sisterhood change the game
 * And how to start building that kind of support right now

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “behind,” like someone else’s success takes away from yours, or like you’re doing it all alone — this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to be.

💬 “There’s room for you. There’s room for all of us. And the magic happens when we stop competing and start cheering each other on.”

Stronger Together | Cultivating Community Over Competition In The Esthetics Industry

This episode picks up where our conversation with Marti Hutchinson left off — diving into the mindset that builds not just momentum, but sustainability in your beauty career.

We explore what it really means to earn your place in the industry, how to start at the bottom without shame, and the difference between “doing whatever it takes” and burning yourself out.

You’ll hear honest takes on entitlement vs. willingness, why integrity and initiative go farther than talent alone, and how follow-through is the quiet trait behind every successful esthetician.

This one’s for the esthetician who’s in it for the long game — who wants to grow with intention, grit, and grace.

Earned, Not Given | Grit, Growth, and the Mindset for Long-Term Success

Behind every powerful leader and industry icon is a story no one saw.

In this episode, we sit down with Marti Hutchinson, The Medspa Mentor and owner of M Spa Boise and Aesthetics Academy of Idaho. Marti knows what it means to start from nothing—and still believe in something greater. For the first time, she’s letting us in on the full story: the losses, the lessons, the relentless work, and the unstoppable, unlimited mindset that carried her through.

This conversation goes deep. It’s raw, real, and rooted in everything most people don’t talk about—but should.

If you've ever felt behind, broken down, or unsure of your next step—this is your reminder that your beginning doesn’t define your capacity to rise.
