Isabelle Caiozzo: You’re Not “Too Much”: Why Passionate Women Make Powerful Leaders
At some point, many of us have been told we’re too something. Too intense. Too emotional. Too loud. Too ambitious. It’s as if the very traits that fuel our success become liabilities the moment they make others uncomfortable.

Since opening in 2023, it has quickly become one of Salt Lake City’s top hair studios for several reasons. One key factor is owner Joshua Lucero’s commitment to creating an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome, especially those who have struggled to find the right fit elsewhere. “I wanted to cater to members of the community who didn’t always get what they needed,” he shared.

For over 120 years, Goodwill has collected donations, giving items a second life by repurposing and reselling them at affordable prices — all while keeping materials out of landfills. We sat down with Chelle Fried, director of digital marketing and community relations, Laura Schultz, vice president communications, Jason Asher, AVP of retail operations and logistics and Ana Gomez, recycling and logistics manager to learn more about their sustainability efforts.
