Why Owning a Med Spa Left Me Burned Out? Let me give your quick background-I had started freelancing in aesthetics 5 years prior to opening my own med spa 2019 which i closed 12/2023)
❎Running a med spa sounds glamorous. It’s not. At least, not always.
❔When I started, I thought I was building a business that would give me freedom and financial stability. Instead, I built something that owned me.
I didn’t hate the industry. I just hated who I became in it — tired, reactive, always trying to keep up. I transitioned to private plastic surgery practice then worked for corporate aesthetics dermatology so I could see if maybe I did something incorrectly. 🙅♀️Nope- same issues persisted industry wide.
🔥Burnoutwasn’t a surprise. It was the inevitable result of giving too much and pausing too little. ….almost 2 years later I can finally share this.
