You Deserve a Coach Who’s Built the Kind of Spa Business You Want


You’re not just looking for more clients. You want clarity, confidence, and a business that supports your life, not the other way around.


You don’t need a cheerleader. You need someone who’s been in your shoes, built a six-figure spa, sold it on her own terms, and helped thousands of estheticians grow with structure and strategy that actually works.


Whether you want to build better systems, grow a team, or delegate your marketing and tech, there’s a clear path forward.

20+ Years in the Treatment Room

I built a thriving spa from scratch, scaled it, sold it, and turned it into a business I loved showing up for.

Thousands of Estheticians Transformed

From solo estheticians struggling to stay consistently booked to spa owners growing high-performing teams, I’ve guided them through every stage of business growth.

Creator of the Esthetician Inner Circle Membership™

The go-to membership for estheticians who want loyal clients, smart strategies, a supportive community, and growth.

If you’re ready to learn from someone who’s been where you are and knows how to help you get where you’re going:

esthetician frustrated with marketing and sales

Let’s be real. You didn’t become an esthetician to chase algorithms, manage spreadsheets, or guess your way through pricing and policies.


But that’s exactly what it feels like.


One month, you’re booked out. The next? Crickets.
Social media burns you out before it brings clients in.
You’re working more but somehow still not making enough.


And forget taking a day off without stressing over lost income.


If you’re spending all your time trying to keep up with social posts, booking software, or email marketing, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to do it all yourself.


You’re not lazy. You’re not unmotivated.


You just haven’t had a roadmap… until now.


You started this business for freedom… so why does it feel like you’re working 24/7?


There’s nothing wrong with your work ethic. The problem is the strategy.


Let’s talk about what’s not working and what to do instead.

No pressure. Just a friendly conversation and your next best step.

"If you’re looking for a coach who truly understands business growth, delegation, and strategy, I can’t recommend Maxine Drake and her team enough.

Her expertise has not only improved my business but also given me the confidence to achieve goals I once thought were out of reach.

Thank you, Maxine, for your unwavering support and for helping me take my business to the next level!"


- Liz Steffen, Vanilla Sugar Face & Body


"I highly recommend Maxine Drake to any esthetician, whether you’re just starting out or have years of experience! I’ve been working with her for a couple of years now, attended her summit twice, and the impact on my business and personal growth has been incredible.

She’s helped me focus on what truly works for my business, guided me to make the necessary changes, and encouraged me to cut out the distractions."


- Cat Giacone, Sugar Me Wax Studio

Beauty Business Coaching That Meets You Where You Are


Whether you’re solo and scrappy or running a full-on spa, there’s a clear path to a full book of clients, increased revenue, and more confidence.

"I am immensely grateful to Maxine and her team for their outstanding support in launching my very first solo esthetics practice. They revamped my website with a fresh, standout design and optimized it for Google SEO. The guidance and insights they shared were incredibly enlightening.

In addition, they set up my site for an online store and seamlessly integrated it with my online booking platform. They managed the entire inventory upload process, including adding pictures and descriptions for my product lines. They also created all of my online client forms and took care of designing marketing materials such as flyers and business cards.

These services have been invaluable, allowing me to focus on running my business and providing quality services to my clients. With their help, I could concentrate on designing my salon and purchasing equipment and products.

I am forever grateful for the assistance for a solid foundational launch of my solo practice!"


- Linda Burnham

"What a life saver! Knowing all of the tasks, both big and small, are being completed behind the scenes takes a huge load off my shoulders. It's like having one employee who knows how to do everything, which saves me time and money!"


- Sarah Kinsler, Kin Aesthetics

"Maxine is a fantastic coach! If you are an Esthetician in need of business guidance and support to grow your practice, the Esthetician Inner Circle is the perfect place to find the support you’re looking for. Maxine’s positive attitude and knowledge, combined with support and idea sharing from like-minded professionals in our industry, is invaluable. I highly recommend Maxine and the Esthetician Inner Circle!"

Meet Maxine Drake

Trusted Esthetician Coach for 10+ Years


I’ve Been Where You Are. And Built What You Want.


I started like most estheticians: talented, driven, and completely overwhelmed by the business side of things.


No roadmap. No marketing plan. No systems.


When I opened my first spa, I had big dreams and no clue how to turn them into sustainable income. I hustled, burned out, and learned everything the long way.


Then I got serious. I got a business coach, raised my prices, hired smart, built systems, and turned my solo hustle into a scalable, sellable business.


Now I help estheticians do the same.


I am not here to sell you a magic formula. I am here to help you create a business that fits your life, fuels your purpose, and frees up your time.
