Why This Program Works
-
Tailored to Your Career: As a hairstylist, I know firsthand how physically demanding, fast-paced, and unpredictable your days can be. This program is specifically designed to address the unique challenges you face daily—long hours on your feet, exposure to chemicals, skipped meals, and the physical toll of repetitive motions. Every aspect of the program is built to seamlessly integrate into your lifestyle as a stylist.
-
Built Around The CALM Habit Method: My signature, holistic system works because it tackles the root causes of exhaustion, stress, and physical strain. Each pillar—Customizable Nutrition, Active Awareness, Low-Tox Lifestyle, and Movement That Matters—is designed to help you break free from unhealthy habits, improve your energy, and reduce pain. It’s a complete system, not a quick fix, empowering you to build sustainable habits.
-
Actionable and Sustainable: You don’t need to turn your life upside down to see results. This program focuses on small, practical changes you can easily implement—even during a packed salon schedule. Whether it’s a quick meditation between clients, a healthier lunch option, or stretches to relieve tension, these strategies will fit into your busy life and deliver long-term results.
-
Led by Experience and Empathy: I’ve stood behind the chair for 20 years and felt the exhaustion, pain, and frustration that come with the job. Add in my experience managing a connective tissue disorder, and I deeply understand how important it is to have wellness solutions that work for you. This program isn’t just something I teach—it’s something I live. My own journey to better health and wellness is the foundation of everything I share with you.
By combining proven strategies, personal experience, and an understanding of what hairstylists really need, this program works to transform not just your wellness, but how you feel in your career and everyday life. With these tools and lifetime access to the supportive group, you’ll have everything you need to maintain your success long after the program ends.
My
Story
Hi, I'm Cerissa, Your Healthy Habit Coach.
I've been a hairstylist for over 20 years, with major certifications as Luxury Hairstylist and Master Color Expert. I've worked as a commission stylist, suite owner, and booth renter, as well as having been a salon educator since 2009.
I know firsthand the toll this industry can take on your body and mind. After struggling with neck and back pain, tennis elbow, and more from years behind the chair—compounded by my connective tissue disorder, hEDS—I was told my career was “the worst” for my health.
Instead of giving up, I leaned into solutions. I became a meditation teacher in 2020 to help manage the stress of covid closures, and the rest, as they say, is history. I'm now a multi-certified health coach, and through both my day to day life and my professional training, I discovered the power of clean eating, mindfulness, low-tox living, and movement to not only feel better but thrive in my career.
Now, I’m here to help you do the same. With The CALM Academy, you’ll gain the tools, habits, and confidence to take care of yourself without sacrificing your success as a stylist.
Let’s redefine what wellness looks like for hairstylists.
