Detailing, Longevity & Early Intervention

From surviving a life changing accident to becoming one of Miami’s most trusted names in aesthetics, Amy Peterson has rewritten what it means to build beauty from the inside out.

At 18, she was hit by a drunk driver and told she might never walk again. Today, she is the founder of one of Miami’s most successful clinics, Skincare by Amy Peterson, and the creator of Lenox and 16th, a million dollar skincare brand that shows what it really looks like to put care at the center of business.

Amy’s story is about grit, reinvention, and service driven entrepreneurship. She built a beauty empire with no investors, no shortcuts, and no business degree. She did it through relentless work ethic, empathy, and purpose.

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, she shares:

• How a near death accident gave her the drive to build her dream business
• The mindset that separates good service from iconic unforgettable service
• What it takes to scale a people first company in a saturated industry
• How she turned trauma into purpose
• The moment she walked away from comfort to start her own clinic• Why caring more can actually make you more profitable
• How she self funded a million dollar skincare brand without investors
• Why she believes good people do win when they lead with integrity
• The truth about aging confidence and longevity in beauty
• What having it all actually means when you build it yourself

This is not just an episode about beauty or business. It is a masterclass in integrity, service, and self belief.
