#146: On today’s episode, Han sits down with Ksenia Zaytseva, founder of Bur Bur Hair Care, to talk about her story. From moving to the U.S. without speaking English, to building from nothing, and the mindset it takes to keep going when there’s no proof it’s going to work.
This is a conversation about perseverance, self belief, and committing to a path without a plan B. The girls get into:
• moving to the U.S. without speaking English & starting over
• why “no plan B” changes the way you show up
• living “comfortably uncomfortable” vs actually taking risks
• delusional self belief & trusting yourself before there’s proof
• ignoring what feels logical to follow what you know is meant for you
• why thinking from point A to Z keeps you stuck
• navigating hardship, sacrifice & starting from nothing
• being told something is impossible—and doing it anyway
• money as energy & removing a scarcity mindset
• how your beliefs shape the reality you experience
• breaking limits & refusing to keep yourself small
• the mindset behind building Bur Bur Hair Care
• why scalp care is the most overlooked part of beauty
Ksenia shares how she pushed past what felt logical to follow a deeper knowing that she was meant for more, why success came from continuing to show up without validation, and how her relationship with money as energy shaped the way she built her life and business.
This episode is for anyone who feels like they’re starting from nothing, questioning their path, or trying to trust themselves before the results show up. It’s also for anyone who knows they’re meant for more but is still learning how to move through fear, take risks, and actually go after it.
