What happens when two neurodivergent creatives sit down to unpack what it means to build a business that honors your authentic self? Magic, tears, and powerful truth bombs about embracing your unique vision despite what the world thinks you should do.
In this deeply moving conversation, we're joined by Bec, a master hairdresser with 30 years of experience who recently opened Plume, a salon space created entirely on her own terms. As I settle in for a color touch-up, we dive into how Bec's ADHD has shaped her entrepreneurial journey and the courage it took to reject conventional salon models in favor of creating a sanctuary where clients feel truly seen.
"I want people to feel like they're receiving a hug when they walk in," Bec explains, her voice catching with emotion as she reveals the deeply personal reasons behind her business philosophy. After decades of being told her approach to hairdressing was "wrong," she finally trusted her instincts enough to build a space that reflects her values – where genuine connection comes before transactions and everyone is welcomed exactly as they are.
The conversation takes several profound turns as we explore the intersection of creativity, determination, and fear. Bec doesn't sugarcoat the journey, admitting she was terrified throughout the process of building her business but kept moving forward anyway. Her insights about channeling ADHD-driven determination rather than suppressing it offer a refreshing perspective for anyone who's felt their neurodivergence was a barrier rather than a gift.
Whether you're contemplating starting your own creative business or simply need a reminder that your unique approach has value, this episode will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and ready to let your authentic self lead the way. As Bec powerfully reminds us: "If you want to do something that to everybody else seems stupid or crazy... who cares? They can all fuck off."
