Is Your Assistant Lazy… or Are Expectations the Real Issue Here?
Mon Feb 02 2026
Ever caught yourself thinking (or saying 😬):
“My assistant is lazy.”
“They don’t take initiative.”
“I’ve told them a hundred times and nothing changes.”
Can we please have an honest conversation.
In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions in the salon industry and it might be the ONE THING that is keeping you exhausted, frustrated, and stuck doing everything yourself.
👉🏼 Most assistants are NOT lazy… they’re lost.
When there’s no clear structure, expectations, or path for growth, assistants are left guessing. And guessing looks like hesitation. It looks like waiting. It looks like what we label as “lazy.”
In this episode, we talk about:
Why clarity creates confidenceThe real reason assistants “don’t care” and why it’s usually not personalHow “winging it” in training is costing you time, energy, and moneyWhat assistants actually need to succeed, stay, and growWhy doing everything yourself feels easier… but keeps you burnt outIf you’re already stretched thin, your body is tired, and you are juggling all your clients and the business… This episode is for you!
I’ll also walk you through exactly why The Assistant University exists, who it’s for, and how it helps salon owners just like you:
Stop guessingStop micromanagingStop burning through assistantsAnd finally build a team that truly supports them✨ Enrollment for The Assistant University is officially OPEN — but not for long.
