In this episode, we’re tackling the mindset blocks that hold so many aspiring lash artists back. If you’ve been telling yourself you need more time, more money, or more confidence before starting, this is your wake-up call. I’ll walk you through how hesitation keeps you stuck, why fear often shows up as over-planning, and how the most successful lash artists push forwardbeforethey feel fully prepared. If you’re done waiting and ready to take control of your future, this episode is for you.
At Dear Lash Babe, we believe in taking action—even before you feel ready. The difference between those who build thriving lash businesses and those who stay stuck is simple: they start. If you’ve been telling yourself, “I’ll do it next year,” “I just need more money first,” “I don’t feel ready yet,” then this episode is for you. Because here’s the truth—there is no perfect time to start. There is only now.
So many aspiring lash artists dream of leaving their 9-5, becoming their own boss, and creating a career they actually love, but fear holds them back. Fear of failure, fear of not being good enough, fear of putting themselves out there and not seeing results. But the reality is this—waiting doesn’t remove the fear. It only keeps you stuck exactly where you are. The biggest risk isn’t starting; it’s staying in the same place, looking back a year from now, wishing you had taken the leap.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the real reason why we wait, the mindset shifts you need to break free from self-doubt, and how taking just one small step today can completely change your future. Success doesn’t come from waiting. It comes from taking that first, imperfect step. You don’t have to feel ready—you just have to start.
Confidence doesn’t come before you begin. It comes because you begin. Every successful lash artist, every six-figure beauty entrepreneur, started exactly where you are now—unsure, nervous, full of doubts. The only difference? They took action while others kept waiting. In this episode, I’m going to help you recognize the excuses that are holding you back and show you how to step into your power, even when you don’t feel ready.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign, this is it. The best time to start was yesterday. The second-best time is right now. Imagine where you could be six months from now if you just took that first step today. This isn’t just about learning a skill—it’s about building a life and business on your terms, one that gives you financial freedom, flexibility, and fulfillment.
