From Divorce & Deployment to Medical Aesthetics: Brittney’s Inspiring Career Pivot
On this episode of the Pursue Your Passion podcast, Louis “The Laser Guy” Silberman speaks with Brittney, a single mom of three whose life turned upside down when her military husband returned from Afghanistan and asked for a divorce just weeks before a cross-country move. With no plan and three children to support, Brittney rebuilt her life—turning heartbreak into purpose in the booming medical aesthetics industry.
After earning her esthetics license in Tennessee while her husband was deployed, Brittney took a leap of faith and enrolled at National Laser Institute’s Chicago campus, where she fell in love with lasers and the power of skin transformation. Today, she’s thriving in aesthetic marketing and working toward becoming a cosmetic nurse injector so she can offer Botox, fillers, and laser treatments herself.
If you’re a career-changer, a single parent, or someone craving a career with purpose, Brittney’s story will resonate with you. She proves that no matter how hard life hits, you can rise, rebuild, and rediscover your passion in aesthetics.
