Speaker:
Stacey Soble, SALON TODAY and BARBERING TODAY

In this bold and relatable session, Heather Harris invites salon owners and entrepreneurs to confront the real reason they feel overwhelmed and stuck: trying to do it all. Through an engaging opening exercise and a powerful dose of truth, she challenges attendees to imagine stepping away from their business without fear of it falling apart—and what it would take to make that a reality. With humor and heart, Heather shares how strategic delegation isn’t just about getting help; it’s the key to building a thriving business, becoming a confident leader, and reclaiming your time, energy, and purpose. 

Heather doesn’t just talk about delegation—she lives it. She takes attendees on a transformational journey from burnout to bold leadership, guiding them to identify low-value tasks, activate team potential, and focus on the high-impact work that truly moves the needle. Whether it’s mentoring your staff more meaningfully, saying yes to new creative ventures, or finally getting a full night’s sleep, this talk is your permission slip to stop grinding and start leading. Because, as Heather says: You didn’t build this dream to be tired. You built it to lead.

Want to boost your salon’s bottom line? Start with engagement. In this culture-driven session, I’ll share how to ignite purpose, connection, and accountability in your team—because when stylists feel seen, supported, and part of something bigger, they show up differently… and so do your numbers. And the data backs it up: highly engaged teams are proven to increase profitability by up to 23%. Let’s build a culture that doesn’t just feel good—it produces results.
