Hi, I’m Leah Hunt.

I've spent 25+ years on the marketing side of the table — leading Health & Wellness advertising strategy at Microsoft, working alongside brands like L'Oréal and Estée Lauder, and learning what actually moves the needle for beauty and wellness companies at scale.

Then I became a licensed esthetician.

I didn't leave marketing behind — I brought it with me, straight into the treatment room. And what I found was a gap. Most estheticians and beauty/wellness business owners are incredible at their craft but were never taught how to run the business side. Most marketing consultants, meanwhile, have never stood behind a treatment table and don't understand the rhythm of this industry — the trust, the intimacy, the way a client relationship actually builds.

I've stood on both sides.

That's what Leah Hunt Studio is built on: Beauty + Wellness + Strategy. I bring corporate-grade marketing thinking — the kind built for Fortune 500 budgets — and translate it into something a small business owner in the wellness space can actually use, without needing a marketing department to execute it.

I'm not here to hand you a generic playbook. I start by understanding exactly where your business is losing momentum — whether that's your booking flow, your brand clarity, your client retention, or your positioning — and build a growth strategy around your business, not a template.

Whether you need a single diagnostic to find your growth gaps or an ongoing strategic partner, I'd love to help you get there.
