The Culture Compass
Helping small business owners find their true north.
Supporting Small Businesses. Strengthening Communities.
For me, championing small businesses isn’t just a job—it’s a calling. Whether I’m mentoring new entrepreneurs, helping seasoned business owners find clarity, or connecting the dots between passion and profit, I show up with one mission: to empower, educate, and uplift.
With nearly two decades of experience as a small business owner, I understand the hustle, the heartbreak, and the triumphs that come with building something from the ground up. That’s why I’ve dedicated my time, energy, and expertise to helping others do the same.
Whether you’re launching your first business or just trying to make it through your tenth tough season, I’m here to remind you: you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s build something beautiful together.
Tricia in the wild!

I’m often asked what products, tools, books, and everyday favorites I personally recommend. I’ve gathered some of them here in my Amazon storefront so you can easily find the things I love and use.
I am an advocate for shopping local and supporting small businesses, but I am also ordering from Amazon just like everyone else! Check out my Amazon picks. Including: a wish list for our Heart of a Hairdresser mission, salon favorites, skincare must-haves, lifestyle favorites for travel, reading, fashion, wellness, Jeep fans, menopause lifesavers, and so much more.
