From Makeup Artist to Maverick: Shari Teigman's Story

Описание: What happens when you mix twenty years of high-stakes makeup artistry with a "New York jaded" realism and a dash of soulful reinvention? You get Shari Teigman, a self-described "creative maverick" who turned a life-altering divorce into a powerhouse coaching career. In this episode, Shari pulls back the curtain on her 12-year journey from a single mom in New York to a top-tier coach leading departments in the UK.

Shari doesn't do "fluff" or "toxic positivity." Instead, she treats personal development like a mosaic—breaking things apart to build something more beautiful. We dive deep into her transition from the beauty industry, where she spent 95% of her time acting as a "backroom psychologist" for stressed-out brides, to becoming a strategic visionary for CEOs. Whether you're looking to pivot your career or simply want to understand the "psychology of the chair," Shari’s raw, witty, and deeply authentic perspective is the wake-up call every aspiring entrepreneur needs.
