I took the biggest leap of faith in quitting my corporate job to pursue something I didn’t have a plan for… let alone an idea of what it would become 🫠

At the time, all I knew was that I couldn’t be miserable for another day. That’s not how I wanted to live my life, nor was it how I wanted to contribute to the world.

The decision to leave was a decision to have faith in my purpose and my ability to be well with myself & others.

I had no business experience at all. Just 6 years of waxing experience & the belief that there had to be something more for me.

Growth can be hard to recognize when you’re living in it every day.

5 years ago, we started with 22 lbs of wax every 6 weeks. Today, we go through 88 lbs.

It’s just wax… but those numbers hold hundreds of appointments, connections, lessons, referrals, & people who trusted Bare Culture enough to keep coming back.

Sometimes we’re so focused on where we’re trying to go that we forget to look for the evidence of how far we’ve already come.

So whatever you’re building, becoming, or working toward- find your own little way to measure the growth.

The evidence of how far you’ve come might be smaller than you expected, but the story behind it is so much bigger.

Instead of chasing BIG goals, life asked me to slow down, let go, & redefine what growth even means to me.

I’ve been so deep in that transformation that I almost let a HUGE milestone pass without truly honoring it:
Bare Culture turned 5 in May 🎉

& before I start asking what’s next for us, I want to remember what got us here.

So this video is the beginning of a little series taking us down memory lane reflecting on the last five years: the lessons, growth, mission, & everything Bare Culture has become.

Looking back is exactly what we need to feel inspired about where we’re going next.

Here’s to 5 years of Bare Culture & the stories that got us here. 💙
