Chelle’s entrepreneurial journey began long before she knew exactly where it would lead. She entered cosmetology school at just 16 years old, built her skills behind the chair, and eventually transformed her passion into a thriving company recognized on the Inc. 5000. But Chelle’s story is about more than building successful salons. It’s about challenging the idea that creative careers are somehow less valuable than traditional professional paths. Through education, structure, leadership, and entrepreneurship, Chelle has created real career opportunities for stylists while helping other salon owners and creatives recognize their worth, build profitable businesses, and lead with confidence. Her T-E-E is Teaching • Empowerment • Entrepreneurship. Join Miss Liz and Chelle for a conversation about taking an unconventional path, building something from the ground up, leadership, business growth, knowing your worth, and why creative careers are powerful careers. Opening: Welcome to Teatime with Miss Liz, where we bring real stories, real experiences, and real-life lessons to the table. Today we’re talking about what can happen when someone chooses an unconventional path—and refuses to believe that creative talent cannot become serious business. My guest is Chelle Neff, founder of Urban Betty. Chelle started cosmetology school at only 16 years old. She went from working behind the chair to building a multi-location salon company with nearly 100 team members and more than $6 million in annual revenue. But what stands out about her journey isn’t simply the numbers. It’s what she has built for other people. Chelle believes stylists and creatives deserve real career paths, education, leadership opportunities, financial growth, and the confidence to understand the value of their work. <br />Teaching. Empowerment. Entrepreneurship. Chelle, grab your cup and welcome to Teatime with Miss Liz. Let’s dig deep into what it really takes to build something from the ground up. Closing: Chelle’s story challenges an idea that far too many creative people have heard: “That’s not a real career. ”But creative careers are real careers. They create businesses.<br />They create jobs.<br />They create opportunities.<br />They create independence.<br />And they can create lasting impact. Chelle began cosmetology school at sixteen and kept building—one client, one lesson, one team member, and one courageous business decision at a time. Today, Urban Betty represents what can happen when creativity meets structure, education, leadership, and entrepreneurship. Thank you, Chelle, for bringing your T-E-E of Teaching, Empowerment, and Entrepreneurship to our table and reminding us that success doesn’t require following someone else’s road. Sometimes you have to build your own. Chelle Neff is the founder of Urban Betty, an Austin-based multi-location salon company with nearly 100 team members and over $6 million in annual revenue. Beginning cosmetology school at 16, she built an unconventional entrepreneurial career dedicated to empowering stylists, developing leaders, and proving the power of creative careers. New to streaming or looking to level up? “Success isn’t defined by whether we followed the traditional road. Sometimes our greatest success begins when we recognize our own worth, trust our gifts, and become brave enough to build the road that wasn’t there before.”<br />— Miss Liz</p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/teatimewithmissliz?__cft__
