Heidi Gammarano
100%. When I rebranded to Haus Of Heidi my intention was to let my clients know who I really am, that I put my creativity and diligence into each project. That the Special Sauce, is me! What you see is what you get, I love showing my followers on social media what I do, at work and at play. Read more>>
Randy Lewis
As a kid, and a young adult, I thought that the best way to motivate yourself to do something was just to think about the right course of action, then to do it. For example, I never used to work in libraries–why waste time on the commute when you can just work in your room? Read more>>
Ryan Fitzpatrick
They say routine is the key to success. Recently I read the same routine is what makes the weeks and years feel faster and faster. So for better or worse, my morning routine is different almost every morning. I am fortunate enough to be a small business owner which brings me the fortune of being at the mercy of that schedule.

Anissa
I believe integrity is the most important quality because it is the template for everything we do. Integrity shapes the intentions that are carried out with our intelligence and energy. Without integrity at the root, intelligence becomes manipulation. Energy becomes chaos, and vision becomes vanity. People with integrity turn mistakes into discoveries. They choose to be effective rather than egoic. Read more>>
Radhika Karandikar
I do not believe that hiding pain is always necessary. It is one of the most natural human feelings and needs an outlet. Every person experiences pain on a wide spectrum and no matter how more or less it is, they need to let it out for their own sake. Read more>>
Knengi Martin
This question is a hard one because as a child I feel like I was on my own a lot. I have a younger sister who is one of the few people who I believe always supported me in the things that I wanted to do, and always made me feel loved and value. Read more>>
BROOKE Wagner
The people who have taught me the most about work are the clients and families I’ve had the honor of serving. Over the past 25 years, they have been my greatest teachers. Each family and each individual has invited me into their lives with trust, and in doing so, they’ve continually challenged me to grow, reflect, and evolve both personally and professionally.

Andrew McCall
Defiantly my dad. He never let me stop and always had me moving. He wasn’t easy to work with but he taught me how to get the job done. Read more>>
Veronica Moreno
A few years ago we presented at Paul Mitchell the School, and gave away 10 seats to a hair/makeup photo session. I couldn’t sleep the night before. I was so excited to give them this gift. I was so exhilarated to share my love of the camera, of making people look their best, of educating the new stylists. Read more>>
Betty Schram
Absolutely. It’s really important that one is immersed in ‘the work,’ whatever that may be for them, for the sake of the work, the passion, to exercise the gift of creating. This is the art of art. If it were to become recognized and find value with others, that too is a gift, but it must not be the impetus of creation. Read more>>
Katerina Husar Lazarova
Yes—absolutely. And honestly, that’s what being an artist trains you to do every single day. Most days, it’s just me in the studio, layers drying, music humming softly, no audience, no applause. Still, I show up and give everything my best. Not because someone is watching, but because creating is how I listen to myself. Read more>>
Sydney White
As a mom of two young children and a business owner, every day is a little different. Each day usually begins with a run before my kids are awake. As a lifelong runner, running has always been my favorite way to center my mind. Read more>>
Andrew Frischer
Honestly, the most surprising thing has been how little people care about the “product” in the way I expected—and how much they care about the story behind it. I thought customers would mostly show up for a design they liked, maybe the vibe, maybe the quality, and a little bit about the why. But a lot of them really want the detailed story behind them.
