Ep. 120 From Lash Tech to Lash Educator

Are you like me and in love and addicted to your lashes? From basic classic lashes to a massive and rapid growing industry, Arianna is an active leader in the lash industry.

Arianna McKiknely went from a flash idea of ‘labour lashes’ to creating a lash empire vision!

Today, she is a Lash Educator, and she is helping you do the same with your lash dream, because she wants to help people that go through her lash program, create their own income and independence, the same way she did.

Her lash experience left her loving the idea of being a part of the lash industry, realizing it wasn’t just the lash service, it was the empowering and insightful conversations and connections in each session, while also getting to leave the appointment feeling beautiful! While seeing a lack of technicians in her area, she decided to get certified!

Join us on this week’s episode for a heartwarming conversation with Melissa Walterson, as she shares her journey of accepting and embracing her Nisichawayasihk Cree and Pasqua roots after years of growing up in a predominantly non-Indigenous life.

Being raised by her adoptive white parents, Melissa spent her adolescent years not acknowledging her indigenous roots, and always felt out of place in religious denominations. This feeling of not belonging led her to a path of reconnection with her identity, her birth family, and fully embracing her culture.

A story of self-rediscovery, acceptance, and celebrating culture, all of this and more in this episode that hits close to home. Tune in now!
