Diversity in Aesthetics: Starting the Conversation
In this week’s episode, AmSpa CEO, Alex R. Thiersch, JD, is joined by Shannon King, BSN, RN, and Christal Parker, MSN, FNP-C. Alex, Shannon and Christal engage in an overdue discussion of diversity in aesthetics, covering topics that include:
* Shannon and Christal’s individual journeys into aesthetics;
* The barriers to entry and growth that exist in the industry;
* How issues of gender, race, sexuality and ethnicity all intersect and impact diversity in aesthetics;
* Why representation and education matter, not just for patients but also for providers;
* How client experience is negatively impacted by a lack of diversity in marketing;
* Tolerance vs. acceptance;
* How additional conversations on the importance of diversity can be initiated and fostered;
* And much, much more!
