In this special anniversary episode of the Leading Visionaries, host Anjel B. Hartwell sits down with Dr. Dia Burger, founder of Stiletto Med Spa, the International Med Spa Academy, and the Million Dollar Med Spa Method. With more than 30 years of medical experience and two decades in aesthetics, Dr. Dia shares how her vision evolved from operating a highly successful med spa to creating a global chain of premium med spas designed for exceptional client outcomes and strong investor returns. She discusses the importance of leadership, intellectual property, business systems, ethical practices, and trusting your intuition when building something extraordinary. This inspiring conversation explores the intersection of vision, innovation, profitability, and purpose while revealing what it takes to create a business that is both scalable and sustainable.
