In this episode of The Terra Harvell Show™, Terra did a live podcast with Melissa Schleicher, founder of Parlour 3 Beauty, for a raw conversation about what it really takes to build a business that doesn’t run you into the ground.
From betting on yourself and taking risks that feel terrifying, to navigating walkouts, building teams, and staying focused when doubt creeps in, this episode is a real look behind the scenes of growth in the beauty industry.
Terra and Melissa talk leadership, longevity, and what separates salon owners who stay stuck from the ones who scale with intention.
This episode unpacks:
· The real risks that changed everything (and what it cost emotionally)
· What to do when your team walks out and how to rebuild stronger
· Why leadership gets lonely and how to keep growing anyway
· Social media confidence, haters, and showing up even when you don’t feel ready
· How to reverse-engineer your income goals and build a business plan that actually makes sense
If you're serious about building a business you can one day step away from (without it all falling apart), this episode is your blueprint.
