Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
What happens when your business slows down, your team isn’t retaining clients, or your employees aren’t taking initiative? Too often, we look for an external fix, a new device, more advertising, a new hire, or someone to blame. In this episode, I’m breaking down why sustainable growth starts from the inside out. I’m unpacking two real questions from med spa owners: how to attract more patients after making a major investment, and how to build a team that takes ownership and creates lasting client relationships. We’ll talk about the difference between using a tool to enhance an...

In this bonus replay episode, I’m revisiting one of my favorite conversations from the Fierce Factor: one of the most dangerous myths women are taught about success, that “playing it safe” is the responsible choice. This conversation was sparked by a reflection on 2016, the year I started KLC and the year my brother passed away, and a question that stopped me in my tracks: Is my life truly better because I chose growth over safety? What I’ve learned over the past decade is this: safety is often conditional, and comfort can be far more limiting than risk. I take you back to my...

If the thought of raising your prices makes you want to crawl under a rock, this episode is for you. In this episode of Business on Top, I’m breaking down why premium pricing is such an important part of building a profitable, sustainable business, and how to know when it’s time to increase your prices without disrupting the client experience. I’m walking you through the signs that your pricing is out of alignment, from rising operating costs and shrinking margins to clients expecting discounts or becoming less aligned with the experience you want to provide. I’m also sharing the...

In this special episode of Business on Top, I’m answering real questions from women navigating the complexities of growing and scaling their businesses. I’m sharing my candid perspective on the biggest mistake I see seven-figure founders making, whether work-life balance is actually possible, how to build a business that supports your life, and what to do when your partner doesn’t understand or support your business investments. I’m also breaking down what I would look at first if someone handed me a million-dollar med spa and sharing why I believe the value of coaching goes far...

In this episode of Business on Top, I’m getting a little more personal and reflecting on the experiences, failures, discipline, and perseverance that have shaped the leader I am today. I spend so much time focused on growth and what’s next that I rarely stop to recognize the experiences that gave me the skills and confidence to pursue those goals in the first place. In this episode, I talk about the importance of acknowledging the wisdom we’ve already earned through the challenges, failures, and moments when we had to get back up and keep going. I also share a personal story from my...

I believe one of the biggest challenges in the aesthetics industry isn't clinical skill, it's business education. In this episode of Business on Top, I'm sharing why so many talented providers struggle with leadership, finances, hiring, and scaling their practices, despite being exceptional at what they do. If you've ever felt confident in the treatment room but uncertain reading your financials, leading a team, or making strategic business decisions, this conversation is for you. I dive into why this gap exists, how it keeps high-achieving founders stuck, and why mastering your craft isn't...

In Part 2 of this series, I’m continuing the conversation around the six stages every business moves through and the leadership evolution required to successfully navigate each stage of growth. As your business grows, your role as a founder has to evolve. The strategies, habits, and decisions that helped you build your business are not always the same things that will help you scale it. In this episode, I’m breaking down the final four stages of business growth: Toddler, Teenager, Young Adult, and The Zone, and the mindset shifts required to move from being the person who does everything...

I’ve learned that every stage of business growth requires a different version of you as a leader. Just like parenting, your role evolves over time. The way you lead your business in the beginning is not the way you lead a million-dollar company, a growing team, or a business designed to give you your life back. In Part 1 of this two-part series, I’m sharing one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned from working alongside hundreds of founders: businesses don’t outgrow strategy first, they outgrow leadership. I’m breaking down the first two stages of business evolution, Birth and...

Last week, I released a 7-part series on operational excellence, and the response was incredible. So many founders reached out saying these conversations completely shifted the way they think about growth, leadership, and building a business that doesn’t rely on them for everything. So, I wanted to bring the entire series together in one place. In this episode, you’ll hear all seven parts back-to-back as we dive into the systems, leadership, and operational frameworks that I’ve seen transform businesses over the last decade of working alongside hundreds of founders as they’ve crossed...

If you’ve ever felt like your business is growing, but you’re carrying more stress, more responsibility, and less freedom than ever before, this episode is for you. Today, I’m sharing Day 1 of our five-day SPARK Leadership Intensive, where I dive into one of the biggest shifts every growing practice owner has to make: realizing that sustainable growth isn’t about working harder, it’s about leading differently. In this session, I’ll walk you through why so many successful businesses hit a plateau, how leadership, not demand, becomes the biggest growth constraint, and what it really...
info_outlineThe hiring process can be daunting, but with some practical insights, a little experience and execution, you can really become a natural at this interviewing piece. And that’s what I want to help you through today.
In this week’s episode I will share with you 3 tips you can use to help you interview like a boss. And stick around because at the end of this podcast I’m going to share with you a special event I’ll be hosting to help you build your interviewing skills, including how to recognize red flags in the interview process immediately so you don’t fall for the same traps I did!
Don’t miss this!
PS- Next week I’ll be hosting a 2 day crash course called: Interview like a Vixen
The event will take place Feb 2 & 3 with a day one session on interviewing strategies and day two, live role play. You’ll be given a comprehensive resource guide to follow along and dissect the live interview. It’s like your own interview lab.
My goal for this session is to help you:
Learn how to interview a candidate like you actually own the place:
- Clue in on my insider tips for expanding your candidate pool
- Learn to immediately recognize red flags in the hiring process
- Grab your popcorn and get a front row seat to a live interview
If you are still listening, you are more than likely a badass aesthetic wellness provider who needs to hire team members, stat. You know that you can't grow without having a solid team behind you. And that may mean you have some tough interviews ahead of you.
Interviewing can be an elusive endeavor. Some employees' best skill is crushing their interview then sucking at their job.
I’m often told “I wish that employee performed as good as their job as they did in their interview”
And the reality is, there is an art to interviewing (and a few practical strategies) that will help you take the driver’s seat, ask the right questions to determine if a candidate is going to cut it in your culture and growing company.
The good news is, you can totally do this. If you want to grow a sustainable business, mastering this skill will be critical because the only way to scale your business in a way that relies on assets (ahem human capital) instead of your precious time and energy is by building a badass team who is capable of lightening our load!
So if you want to take more stress free vacations, sign up for this free crash course pronto.
