  • Why I Hate WooWoo - An Honest & Open Minded Conversation with Lisa Huff
    Jul 15 2024

    Have a question for Hunter? A topic you'd like him to talk about? Feedback? Text us here!

    In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, I had an eye-opening chat with the incredible Lisa Huff. We dove into a topic that's been buzzing around our industry: the concept of "woo-woo." Now, if you're wondering what that even means, you're not alone. We broke down the different interpretations, from meditation and energy healing to crystals and manifestation, and shared our honest perspectives on how these practices fit into our personal and professional lives.

    Lisa and I explored the fine line between staying grounded in reality and embracing the more mystical aspects of our beliefs. I admitted that while I might seem dismissive of the woo movement, it's not because I think it's all nonsense. Instead, I have my reasons for being cautious, especially when it comes to how easily people can be exploited in desperate times. We had a heartfelt discussion about the importance of protecting oneself from manipulative marketing while still appreciating the genuine benefits that some woo practices can offer.

    We didn't shy away from the controversial aspects either. I shared my concerns about how the woo movement can sometimes distract from taking necessary, uncomfortable actions that lead to real progress. Lisa provided a beautiful counterpoint, emphasizing the value of intuition and how aligning with what feels right can propel us forward in meaningful ways. It was a rich conversation that highlighted the balance between strategic business decisions and staying true to our passions and personal growth.

    Wrapping up, we agreed that no matter what path you choose—whether it's fully embracing the woo, staying strictly practical, or finding a blend that works for you—it's all about what makes you happiest and most fulfilled. This episode is packed with insights, laughs, and a lot of heart. So, whether you're a skeptic or a believer, there's something here for you. Thanks for tuning in, and I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this one!
