How I Got Started in Esthetics — And How You Can Too

Hey future esthi,

If you’re reading this, chances are you’re either dreaming about turning your love for skincare into a career or already dabbling in the idea. I’ve been there, not too long ago actually, I was in your shoes, googling “how to become an esthetician,” binge-watching facial videos, and trying to figure out if I even had what it took.

Let me start by saying this: you do.
And I created The Glow Getter Blueprint to prove it.

🌱 My Esthetics Journey

I didn’t wake up one day with a full spa suite and a six-figure plan. I started with curiosity, a lot of overthinking, and a deep desire to help people feel better in their skin. Esthetics wasn’t just about beauty for me, it became a way to connect, to heal, and to build a life that reflects who I truly am.

The path wasn’t always clear. I had questions, made mistakes, and felt overwhelmed more than once. From vetting the right school to passing my boards to navigating my first job, it was a learning curve. But every moment brought me closer to what I now call The Suite Life.

That’s why I built a course and digital guide I wish I had when I was just starting out — to save you time, stress, and self-doubt.

💡 Want to Start Your Own Glow Journey?

Whether you’re still researching esthetics schools or you’re halfway through theory, here’s what I’d tell my younger self (and now, you):

  • Take your time choosing a school. It sets the tone for your entire experience.

  • Document everything. Your progress is part of your brand and your future portfolio.

  • You don’t need to be perfect, just passionate and consistent.

  • You can absolutely be both a service provider and a CEO. There’s room for both glow and grind.

🎓 Ready to Begin?

I created The Glow Getter: Your Esthetics Career Starter Kit to help you confidently step into the world of esthetics. It’s more than a guide, it’s your behind-the-scenes roadmap from research to real results.

💻 Inside the course:

  • How to vet esthetic schools

  • State board prep tips

  • What to expect during training

  • Tools to build your portfolio, track progress, and map your esthi glow-up

🧰 You’ll also get access to printable tools, checklists, and my exact notes from building BTE Luxe into what it is today.

💫 You’re not behind. You’re not too old. You’re not too inexperienced. You’re right on time. And I’m here to help you glow and grow, for real.

With love and light,
