Podcasts about esthetics

Thirty interviews in two days became the foundation for RN Esthetics' new website. Kevin shares the behind-the-scenes process of building a digital experience around the people who define the brand: 23 providers and seven longtime patients. Rather than relying on generic treatment messaging, the site uses real stories, genuine provider-patient relationships, and the team's own language to communicate what makes RN Esthetics different. The discussion covers why the patient remains the hero even within a provider-forward brand, how RN Esthetics' coastal New England identity shaped the visual direction, and where AI-assisted illustration supported the creative process without replacing the human story. It also explores the challenge of balancing animation, video, functionality, and page speed while creating a platform that both patients and providers can feel connected to and proud of.   RESOURCES: https://www.partnerwithalpha.com/goodies   https://www.rnesthetics.com/   LEARN MORE AND JOIN THE ALPHA COMMUNITY: https://www.partnerwithalpha.com/   FOLLOW ALPHA AESTHETICS PARTNERS: https://www.instagram.com/partnerwithalpha/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/alpha-aesthetics-partners/

Hello voices from the bench community, John Wilson here and I wanted to share some news about the evolution of the Programill lineup. Most importantly, Ivoclar's new PrograMill 7. What stands out right away is the reduced air consumption this mill requires, but what you'll notice first is that impressive new touchscreen. For us, the biggest advantage has been increased spindle power. Next time you see your Ivoclar representative, be sure to ask about the PrograMill 7 and tell them John Wilson sent you. Thank you. At exocad Insights in beautiful Mallorca, we finally caught up with Felix from Imagine USA—and the timing couldn't have been better. As an exocad dealer on the front lines of digital dentistry, Felix shared his excitement about the strong turnout, the familiar faces, and most importantly, the innovation coming from exocad. What stood out most? The new exocad Hub and its cloud-based capabilities, along with powerful AI-driven tools inside DentalDB designed for efficient batch processing. For Felix and the Imagine team, it's not just about seeing what's new—it's about putting it to the test. By running new features through their own production facility first, they ensure real-world performance before bringing solutions to their customers. Fresh off the beaches and lectures of the beautiful island of Mallorca at the exocad Insights 2026 , Elvis and Barb sat down with three incredible women proving that digital dentistry is global, creative, and fueled by passion. First up is Andreea Bordea, a ceramist and lab owner originally from Romania who found her way into dental technology after narrowly missing acceptance into dental school. From analog waxing and staining zirconia with a single A2 shade to opening her own lab in Spain and building a digital workflow around exocad, Andreea shares the journey of learning everything the hard way. She talks about teaching herself digital dentistry, building a team, and how social media unexpectedly became her outlet while working alone in her lab. The conversation also dives into Ivoclar materials, zirconia, and the excitement around new products launched at Insights. Then the microphones turn to Denisse Ramos from for one of the most energetic conversations of the event. Denisse talks about her journey from Enterprise Rent-A-Car and Coca-Cola into the dental industry, eventually becoming a major force in digital workflows, 3D printing, and equipment sales. From Dentsply to Desktop Health and now leading sales at New Stetic USA, Denisse shares stories about mentorship, industry evolution, women in dentistry, and why labs need to charge for their expertise. We all talk about the rise of digital dentistry, treatment planning frustrations, social media, the future of dentures, and the importance of giving back through organizations like Ladies of the Mill and the NADL. Finally, Elvis met Daniela Torres, better known online as “Danny Designer,” a digital designer from Chile whose Instagram portfolio turned into a thriving business. Daniela explains how she taught herself exocad through YouTube before traveling to Madrid for advanced training, eventually working at the MOD Institute in South Carolina before returning to Chile to build her own remote design business. From designing full arch restorations and dentures to handling dozens of cases a day entirely through email and WhatsApp, Daniela proves how powerful digital dentistry and social media have become for technicians worldwide. The conversation wraps with excitement around exocad's newest updates, the exocad Hub, and what it means to be recognized as an exocad Hero.Special Guests: Andreea Bordea, Daniela Torres, and Denisse Lasso Ramos.

With the rise of social media, many of us have forgotten the true foundation of success in esthetics. Here at Beyond Esthetics, we aim to refocus on the most important aspects that truly create success now and in the long term - and social media will never be at the top of our list. Among many skills like touch, product knowledge and retail sales, there remains a skill beneath it all that is the most important skill to learn and master - CONNECTION. Without connection, there is no relationship and without relationship, there is no career. But most of us are not taught how to create connection or communicate. Today, we do a deep dive and we make it tangible. Many of the things we discuss today will be new, and many will be a reminder that we always need to hear. Connection is a skill that can be learned and we can't wait to share this episode and insight that will propel you forward on a long, joyful and fulfilling career as a beauty professional. Let's rise together!

Hello voices from the bench community, John Wilson here and I wanted to share some news about the evolution of the Programill lineup. Most importantly, Ivoclar's new PrograMill 7. What stands out right away is the reduced air consumption this mill requires, but what you'll notice first is that impressive new touchscreen. For us, the biggest advantage has been increased spindle power. My laboratory's known for these larger cases with complex geometries, and I can tell you that extra power really makes a difference. Next time you see your Ivoclar representative, be sure to ask about the PrograMill 7 and tell them John Wilson sent you. Thank you.

By running new features through their own production facility first, they ensure real-world performance before bringing solutions to their customers. Beyond the technology, Felix emphasized the value of being there in person—connecting face-to-face with partners, having meaningful conversations, and stepping back to see where the industry is headed. And of course, doing it all in Mallorca doesn't hurt either. Mallorca, Spain. exocad Insights 2026 Three completely different conversations somehow all landed on the same theme: digital dentistry keeps getting smaller, smarter, and way more connected. First up, the crew catches back up with digital designer and educator Marjorie de Andrade, who went from Brazil to New Zealand chasing opportunity, only to end up building a global career through remote design, social media, and education. Marjorie talks about creating the Mastering exocad course, freelancing for dentists around the world, and why finding purpose through teaching became more important than simply designing crowns. She also shares thoughts on the newly announced exocad Hub, remote collaboration, and how digital dentistry is making communication between dentists and technicians easier than ever. Then the microphones turn to Dr. Dwight Pate for one of the most workflow-heavy conversations the podcast has ever had. From hand waxing cases the old-school Dawson and Pankey way to designing provisionals and controlling full-mouth rehabs completely through exocad, Dr. Pate breaks down how he combines analog principles with digital workflows. The discussion dives deep into occlusion, provisionals, articulators, guided workflows, AI design, and why he believes digital dentistry still has to prove itself back in the analog world before it ever reaches the patient's mouth. Finally, the crew reconnects with Dr. Eimear O'Connell to talk about why clinicians need to attend events like Insights just as much as technicians. Eimear shares how digital workflows are improving communication between doctors, labs, and patients while making implant planning, dentures, and aesthetic dentistry more predictable than ever. From digital dentures that fit with almost zero adjustment to helping patients emotionally reconnect with their smiles, the conversation reminds everyone that behind every scanner, workflow, and software update is still a real person whose life changes because of dentistry.Special Guests: Dr. Dwight Pate, Dr. Eimear O'Connell, and Marjorie de Andrade .

In this episode, we're joined by Carly Kenyon owner of CK Skin, a skin and laser clinic she built from the ground up—starting with zero clients in her spare room to now leading a full team.But this conversation isn't just about what she's built, it's about how she feels while holding it.After navigating burnout in the midst of growing her business and raising a family, Carly found herself on a path of rebuilding from the inside out—shifting her nervous system, her capacity, and her definition of success.Today, she shares what it looks like to become the calmest and most successful version of yourself—and why that matters more than anything you're building externally.We dive into: The reality of burnout in the beauty industry What “feeling safe in your body” actually means How your nervous system impacts your business, clients, and leadership Letting go of hustle and creating structure that actually supports you Redefining success in a way that feels sustainable, grounded, and alignedIf you've ever felt overwhelmed, overextended, or disconnected while building your business… this episode will bring you back to what actually matters.Because success doesn't have to feel chaotic.It can feel calm.Find Carly on Instagram @carly_francescaukConnect with us!

In this deeply personal and expansive conversation, we sit down with Bria of Sacred Beauty to explore what happens when esthetics becomes more than a profession and begins to feel like a calling.Bria approaches her work as both an esthetician and a minister through her hands, openly sharing her love for and trust in God as the guiding force behind her practice. We explore what it means to be Spirit-led in business, how faith shapes the way she serves her clients, and why she believes the treatment room can become a sacred space for healing far beyond the skin.Together we discuss the meaning of holistic esthetics, the energetic responsibility practitioners carry, and how estheticians can begin “detoxing the treatment room” clearing not only products and protocols, but also the intentions, energy, and environment that shape every client experience.This conversation also dives into the courage it takes to show up authentically in an industry that doesn't always make space for spirituality, and how Bria's unwavering faith has shaped her voice, her business, and her mission.If you've ever felt that your work is about more than results… If you believe the treatment room holds space for something deeper… And if you're curious what it means to practice as a truly holistic esthetician…this episode will meet you there.This is Beyond Esthetics.

If you're an Esthetician who's ready to level up your treatments, grow your business, and finally feel confident in your career, you're about to meet someone you'll never forget… Shelley Hancock is a 37-year veteran in the esthetic industry and has been empowering thousands of Estheticians since 2015 with real guidance, real strategies, and real results.

In an industry built around productivity, service and consistency many women are quietly burning out despite doing “everything right.”In this episode of the Beyond Esthetics Podcast, we sit down with our dear friend Marti Hutchinson to explore what happens when we stop forcing ourselves into linear business models and start honoring the natural rhythms of the female body.We talk about: Why women are cyclical, not constant, and how ignoring that impacts our energy, creativity, and confidence How understanding your menstrual cycle can reshape scheduling, marketing, client care, and leadership Letting go of guilt, comparison, and unrealistic expectations around productivity Building a business and career that feels sustainable, intuitive, and supportive instead of drainingThis conversation is an invitation to soften, listen, and work with your body rather than against it, while still creating success, momentum, and income in your esthetics career.If you've ever felt like the traditional way of “doing business” doesn't quite fit you, this episode will help you see why and what's possible when you honor your natural rhythm.Click here for the Medspa Mentor Cycles PDF https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nt12evct65ny5a7hzj9fu/MedspaMentorCycles.pdf?rlkey=hn6nlpo0gjv2mcth20svcdurb&st=948w0mw1&dl=0Click here for the Medspa Mentor App https://www.medspamentorapp.com/offers/oi9kCEX2/checkoutFind Marti Hutchinson @medspamentoracademy - www.medspamentorapp.comStay connected!All socials @thebeyondesthetics @sweetcheeksuniversity @jessguidesesthisEmail us! hello@beyondestheticscoaching

In this mini bonus episode, Tiff shares a powerful story from her childhood, one that didn't fully reveal its meaning until years later.As a young girl competing in a statewide beauty pageant, she found herself forming a fast friendship with another contestant, one who would go on to win the entire competition. Looking back now, Tiff recognizes a familiar pattern that has followed her throughout her life: a natural pull toward the highest achievers, the confident ones, the top performers.Not from comparison, but from deep alignment.This episode is a reflection on proximity, frequency, and growth. On how surrounding yourself with people who are already operating at the level you aspire to reach can raise your own vibration, expand your vision, and open doors you didn't even know existed. It's about learning through closeness, being inspired by excellence, and allowing yourself to rise to meet the energy of the room you choose to sit in.This message came through as a spiritual download, one that felt meant to be shared immediately with the Beyond Esthetics community. It's an invitation to intentionally choose tables filled with the shakers and doers, the seers and believers, the people who challenge you to grow, stretch, and excel at your highest potential.If you've been feeling the pull toward “more,” this episode may help you understand why.If this story resonated with you, it's likely because you're being called to elevate the rooms you place yourself in.Growth doesn't always require doing more, it often begins by choosing different proximity. Staying connected to spaces that challenge your thinking, raise your frequency, and normalize big visions is part of the work.✨ Continue the conversation & stay in the room: Follow @thebeyondesthetics on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok for mentorship, mindset shifts, and grounded conversations for estheticians ready to rise. Follow Jess at @jessguidesesthis on Instagram & TikTok for intuitive leadership, clarity, and conscious growth. Follow Tiff at @sweetcheeksuniversity across all platforms for education, spiritual alignment, and building a career rooted in intention and excellence.If this episode stirred something within you, trust that it wasn't accidental. Sometimes the next step isn't about pushing harder. It can simply be about choosing a table that reflects who you're becoming. It's already yours babe!
