Burnout isn’t a badge of honor, and inconsistent income doesn’t have to be part of the job.

In this episode, Lisa sits down with business coach and industry educator Mandy Zehnder to talk about the systems that create real stability behind the chair: budgeting your business, setting aside taxes, paying yourself consistently, building cushion, and pricing with intention so your schedule can actually support your life.

Mandy also shares her story of leaving the industry during a hard season, coming back with a “failure isn’t an option” mindset, and how running her business on a budget ultimately protected her family when life threw a major curveball.

If you want more income, more freedom, and a schedule that doesn’t require nights, weekends, or constant hustle, this conversation will shift how you think about your business.

This is Day 2 of the Vision Casting Workshop 2026 replay, originally hosted live inside Stylist Soul Tribe.

Day 2 is where vision turns into structure. We move from reflection and big-picture dreaming into practical planning, focusing on the 12-Month Blueprint, quarterly themes, and 12-Week Roadmaps that actually support real life.

This session is conversational, emotional, and deeply grounding. We talk through resistance, imposter syndrome, contentment, celebration, and what it really looks like to grow without chaos. You’ll hear live coaching, honest reflections from members, and examples of how to turn clarity into momentum.

In this replay, we cover:

• Creating a 12-month vision that feels supportive, not overwhelming
• Choosing a yearly theme and anchor goals
• Breaking the year into quarters (and when it’s okay to only plan Q1)
• How to define “needle movers” instead of vague goals
• Building realistic 12-week roadmaps (with real examples)
• When to DIY your roadmap vs. when deeper support matters
• Celebrating wins, practicing contentment, and navigating imposter syndrome
• Systems, delegation, and support that reduce burnout
• An overview of the SST Marketplace and how members can get support without doing everything alone

Happy 2026. This episode is a replay of Vision Casting Workshop 2026, Day 1 (originally hosted live at the end of 2025).

If you’ve been wondering where I’ve been, what’s been shifting inside Stylist Soul Tribe, and what I’m building next, this is the clearest “big picture” update I’ve shared in one place. We spend the first half casting the vision and guiding you through reflection and vision board prep, and then I pull back the curtain on the Stylist Soul Tribe ecosystem and what’s evolving going into 2026.

In this replay, we cover:

Why I love vision casting in the “week that doesn’t feel real” between Christmas + New Year’s

Reflection prompts that actually create clarity (camera roll, benchmarks, lessons)

Vision board mindset (specificity + detachment: “this or something better”)

Bucket list items, mantras/word of the year, and “possible failures” (big bold goals)

A full update on the SST ecosystem: Jumpstart, Mastermind, Community, Intensives, Retreats, BOS, and Marketplace

What I’m prioritizing in 2026, and why “Together We Rise” is the theme
