In this episode, Danny Flores welcomes powerhouse entrepreneur and leadership expert Wendi Fast, who shares her fascinating journey from corporate training consultant to co-owner of a thriving salon suite franchise in Laguna Hills.
Wendi talks about her early days in organizational development, her leadership consulting work with Fortune 500 companies, and how a government-funded training program helped shape her professional path. She opens up about the challenges—and ultimate success—of launching Image Studios, a luxury salon suite business created during the uncertainty of the pandemic.
You’ll hear how Wendi and her husband leveraged their respective strengths—real estate and leadership training—to build a high-end space that has remained fully leased for over a year. She also explains why she believes in being open to new opportunities, even ones you never imagined for yourself.
From grassroots Instagram marketing to building trust with beauty professionals, Wendi’s insights are valuable for any entrepreneur or leader looking to grow.
