Beauty Behind The Brand
Welcome to Beauty Behind The Brand, the podcast where entrepreneurship meets real life.
I'm your host, Nicole Manion—founder of Miskoka Beauty, entrepreneur, and boy mom. After spending over a decade building and successfully selling my spa business, I've learned that every brand has a story, every pivot has a purpose, and every challenge holds a lesson.
Each week, I take you behind the scenes of building a business, growing a personal brand, navigating motherhood, embracing mindset, and creating a life that aligns with your biggest goals. You'll hear honest conversations about entrepreneurship, marketing, product development, social media, leadership, resilience, and the realities that happen behind the highlight reel.
Whether you're a beauty professional, business owner, aspiring entrepreneur, or simply someone chasing a dream, this podcast is here to educate, inspire, and remind you that success isn't about having the perfect path—it's about having the courage to keep moving forward.
Welcome to the journey. I'm so glad you're here.

n this episode of Beauty Behind the Brand, Nicole shares one of the most powerful (and underrated) tools she’s used to grow both her spa and product line — Google Forms.
From gathering anonymous client feedback to collecting honest staff insight, Nicole breaks down how simple surveys have helped shape pricing decisions, improve client experience, strengthen team culture, and even guide rebranding decisions.
Let’s be honest — asking for feedback takes confidence. It requires being open to productive criticism and separating emotion from data. But when you’re willing to listen, adjust, and evolve, the insight can be transformational.
Whether you’re building a beauty business from the ground up, preparing for a rebrand, or simply looking to improve what you already have, this episode will show you how structured feedback can create clarity, confidence, and smarter business decisions.
Sometimes the growth you’re looking for is just one question away.
