Your CEO Essence

Katrina Lewis CEO, Educator, Podcast Host

Meet Katrina Lewis — Founder of Your CEO Essence & Tropix Gal Inc

After 15+ years in the beauty industry, building Tropix Gal Inc., becoming an educator, and pouring everything into entrepreneurship, I learned that success means very little when you lose yourself trying to achieve it.

I spent years operating in constant hustle, leading from my masculine energy, believing I had to do more, work harder, and carry everything on my own. Eventually, that imbalance affected my marriage, my identity, and the way I was showing up in my life. Self-development changed everything. The more I worked on my mindset, purpose, boundaries, spirituality, and alignment, the more my business began to make sense too. I became more profitable, more intentional, worked less, and finally started creating a life I actually had time to enjoy.

Your CEO Essence was created to carry that message forward — through courses, manuals, mentorship, memberships, and the podcast — helping ambitious women and estheticians build successful businesses while becoming more connected to who they are outside of them. This is about mindset, manifestation, purpose, freedom, and creating success that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

Podcast

Welcome to Your CEO Essence: Where business growth meets personal growth.

Hosted by Katrina Lewis, this isn’t your typical esthetics podcast. We’re talking entrepreneurship, burnout, work-life balance, self-development, spirituality, and discovering the deeper why behind your business.

Because success shouldn’t cost you your health, identity, or happiness. It’s time to build a business that actually aligns with the woman behind it.

Success without sacrificing yourself.

Waxing/Sugarist Educator

As an educator, I know firsthand how hard it can be to gain enough confidence and skill to charge your worth.

That’s why my training goes beyond the classroom — our relationship doesn’t end when the course is over. I’ll continue to mentor, guide, and support you for as long as it takes for you to feel fully empowered in your craft.

As we know in most schools it is rare to get a lot of hand it's on practice when it comes to hair removal especially in Intimate areas so I have dedicated my passion into teaching those whether you want to work under someone else or work for yourself.  I'll show you the opportunities that can be endless. You can be a boss, a mentor, and still live life to the fullest. If you’re ready to master the art of waxing or sugaring and turn your passion into profit — welcome. You’re in the right place.
