Fully booked with dream clients who pay premium rates and refer everyone they know. A styling business that gives you financial freedom, time with family and friends, and the joy of playing with gorgeous clothes all day - while being exceptionally well paid for it.
You can see it. You know it's possible because other stylists are living it.
And you're hungry for it. You're talented. You're showing up. You're posting on social, creating content, putting yourself out there.
But something's not clicking.
People say "you're so inspiring!" - then hire another stylist. Your efforts aren't converting into sales. Discovery calls go nowhere. Clients haggle. Your income is inconsistent. You're busy but not profitable.
You're working hard but not seeing the growth you're capable of - and you can't figure out what's missing.
That's the gap Ascension closes.
This transformative event will be hosted in a luxury suite in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, from April 22-24, 2026.
Â
This is the room where everything changes. Where stylists stop trading time for money and start building Style CEO businesses. Where you finally charge what you're worth, work with clients who appreciate you, and scale beyond 1:1 without burning out.
Where stylists stop spinning their wheels and start building Style CEO businesses. Where you finally get the clarity and strategy you've been searching for. Where you charge what you're worth, work with clients who appreciate you, and scale beyond 1:1 without burning out. From an in-person practicum in a luxury boutique to strategy and direct coaching, this event will build your confidence as a stylist and business owner to help you grow with full clarity and elevate your skills.
But here's what makes Ascension different from every conference or seminar you've attended:
This isn't 100-500 people in a ballroom getting generic business advice and inspiration.
This is an intimate group in a luxury suite getting YOUR business built. You don't just get inspired. You get answers.
Every question you've been asking yourself—every "How do I...?" and "What if...?" and "Should I...?"—gets answered.
In real time. Specific to YOUR business. With laser-focused attention on YOUR situation.
Â
This is intimate for a reason.
Because I can focus on YOUR business. YOUR packages. YOUR pricing. YOUR clients. YOUR challenges. YOUR goals.
Not theory. Not generic templates. YOUR actual business—built with you.
This isn't a conference where you sit and take notes. This is an intimate, immersive, luxury mastermind experience limited to just 5 stylists in a private suite in Toronto.
For 2.5 transformative days, we'll work together to completely transform your business—your offers, your pricing, your client experience, your visibility strategy, and your CEO mindset.
Plus two weeks of group Voxer support after the event so every question that comes up during implementation gets answered.
Â
→ Andrea went from charging $2K per package to signing a $13K client within one week. Her first month after Ascension? $35K. Then another $35K month after that.
→ Julia doubled her rates and signed two clients at her new elevated pricing within one week. She's now fully booked 4 months in advance and has many clients she signs for $15k+ now.
→ Ashley had her first six-figure year following Ascension thanks to elevating her skills, packages, and pricing. It's since doubled.
→ Renee found her perfect niche and created her entire business system, marketing strategy, and funnel at Ascension. Her following has grown and brands are reaching out to work with her.
→ Samara restructured her entire business to be soul-aligned. She's booked out and now scaling her company.
Your success story is next.


"Christie's Ascension Mastermind trip was life changing! The entire experience was filled with highs- it was a magnetic few days!
It's challenging to even sum it up in one review... every detail was so well thought out to create a truly impactful experience. Christie had topics to cover regarding style personalities and body types that was explained/taught in a way I had never learned before. It is great information for me to bring into my business. When I got home and had a client soon after, I could already see a change in the way I spoke to her and what I taught to her.
We also discussed in depth ways to take our businesses to the next level. She put things in perspective for us in ways I had never even imagined.
For me personally, I have had my business for 10 years and have turned it into a successful one. Christie's trainings taught me to think bigger and to take back control as I feel its easy to let your clients dictate your schedule and take over your evenings/weekends in an effort to please them.
The connections I made are also ones I am SO grateful for. I didn't know any other stylists going into this, and I left with friends. To be able to have these connections to bounce ideas off of is such an invaluable takeaway. I was so confident going into the mastermind that I would learn something because Christie is amazing! The way she delivers information is so relatable, easy to understand, and next level.
I can honestly say that what I learned and left with far exceeded my expectations. From the styling information I learned, to business practices, to personal development, the ascension mastermind has improved all aspects of my life. It's elevated my vision for myself as a stylist, my business, and myself as a woman.
I can't wait to work with Christie again. If you are someone just starting out or have a successful business already, there is still so much to takeaway from her Mastermind. This investment is one you will cherish and be grateful you decided to do so." -Ashley S.

I've been a successful personal stylist for over 18 years and have been teaching other stylists for more than 10 of those years. My stylists thrive—from media features to brand deals to multiple six-figure incomes. They're all living out their purpose and creating the time and financial freedom they've craved.
My approach to style is holistic and transformational, blending personal styling and image consulting. When you're in my world, we go deep past traditional style fluff.
I've been the go-to style expert for major media outlets across North America:Â CTV News, Breakfast Television, Global News, CBC's Steven & Chris, Huffington Post, Chatelaine, Toronto Star, Cosmopolitan TV, and many more. I've delivered hundreds of workshops to corporations, women's groups, and schools discussing confidence, style, and image all over North America.
But more than credentials, what I bring is this: I've been where you are. I've built a thriving styling business from the ground up. I know what it takes to scale, to charge premium prices, to create a business that supports your life (not consumes it). And I know how to help you do the same.Â


“Christie Ressel’s Ascension Mastermind was nothing short of life-changing. I came in looking for clarity—and left with way more than I bargained for. The experience was elegant, chic, fun, and totally approachable. Christie’s authenticity is magnetic, and she holds space in a way that makes you feel instantly seen and inspired.
Getting to connect with other amazing stylists was such a bonus. Since working with Christie, I’ve completely elevated my business—making moves with my value at the center—and it’s been incredible. I’m not the same stylist I was when I started… and that’s the best part.
If you’re feeling the pull, trust it—this is one of those rare experiences that truly changes everything when you say yes to yourself.”- Andrea B.

Your business is as unique as you are. We'll map out your specific growth plan—whether you need to build your audience, grow your revenue, refine your offers, or scale to create more freedom. This is a personalized strategy for your business, your goals, your life.
Every single touchpoint. From the moment someone finds you to the moment they become a raving fan who refers everyone they know.
We're going to design the luxury client journey you've been wanting to deliver—the elevated experience that makes clients feel seen, valued, and cared for at the highest level.
You'll understand the small details that create magic and the communication that makes them feel like VIPs. And here's the thing: you'll experience this firsthand at Ascension. So when you go home, you know exactly what it feels like and how to replicate it.
Not ideas. Your actual packages. Built. Priced. Positioned. We're going to look at what you're offering right now and refine it so it's clean, profitable, and magnetic.
You'll leave with a client journey that doesn't compete with itself. Packages that naturally lead clients to upgrade. Offers so clear that clients sell themselves. You're going to know with absolute certainty what you charge, why you charge it, and how to position it so clients don't question it.
We'll build YOUR pricing framework based on YOUR transformation, YOUR time investment, YOUR market, and YOUR level of expertise.
If you're ready to get seen and well paid, this is where it happens. We'll craft content that connects, build a marketing plan that feels authentic, and find visibility strategies that make your brand magnetic—without the burnout.
We'll explore how to enhance your styling approach, incorporate energetic and personality-driven styling, and deliver transformations that create lifelong fans who rave about you. You'll leave with advanced techniques and a deeper understanding of how to create transformations, not just good outfits.
You're not just running a business, you're building something bigger. We'll get you clear on your vision and what it looks like to create a brand that's both profitable and aligned with your deepest values. You'll leave knowing how to scale and create massive impact.
You can have all the strategy in the world. But if you don't embody the identity of the woman who executes it, nothing changes. We're going to work on the mindset shifts that make you unstoppable.
We'll destroy the limiting beliefs that have been keeping you capped.
And we'll root you so deeply in the truth of who you are—your magic, your aesthetic, your unique approach—that you leave magnetic.
Ascension doesn't just happen in a nice room because it's pretty.
You're being immersed in luxury so you can viscerally experience what's waiting for you on the other side of this transformation.
When you walk into a private suite overlooking Toronto. When you sit down to an exquisite meal at an upscale restaurant. When you're surrounded by beauty, ease, and elegance for 2.5 days—your nervous system recalibrates. Your sense of what's possible expands. The ceiling you've been bumping up against? It shatters.
This is what freedom feels like. This is what scaling to six figures opens up for you. This is the life that becomes available when you stop undercharging and start building a Style CEO business.
But here's the other reason luxury matters:
You can't create an elevated client experience if you've never experienced it yourself. Your clients want to feel pampered, seen, valued—they want luxury. And if you don't know what that feels like in your body, you can't authentically create it for them.
At Ascension, you'll learn exactly how to design a client journey that makes your clients feel like they're being cared for at the highest level. You'll understand the small details that create magic. The touches that make someone feel special. The experience that turns a one-time client into a raving fan who refers everyone they know.
Luxury isn't frivolous here;Â it's transformational and strategic, helping you become the best of the best. It's how you learn to operate and serve at this level.
April 22-24, 2026 | Toronto, Ontario
We're not meeting in a conference room. We're meeting in a luxury suite.
Because you cannot expand your thinking inside the environment that created your current limits. You have to get OUT to think BIGGER.
Picture this: You arrive at a stunning private suite in one of Toronto's most beautiful locations. Floor-to-ceiling windows. Elegant furnishings. A space that immediately makes you feel like you've stepped into something extraordinary.
You're greeted by a small group of ambitious stylists just like you—women who are hungry for growth and ready to build something remarkable. The energy in the room is electric. You can feel it: something is about to shift.
Over the next 2.5 days, you'll dive deep into strategy, skill-building, mindset work, and business transformation—all while being completely taken care of. We're going to do a practicum in stores to elevate the way you shop for clients and their experience and help you get crystal clear on how to create success at the levels you desire.
You'll get dressed up for elevated dinners where the conversation flows as beautifully as the champagne. Where women who understand the bigness of your dreams look you in the eye and say "yes, that's possible for you."
You'll be surrounded by women who GET IT. Who want what you want. Who aren't playing small anymore. Who normalize the audacity of your vision instead of questioning it.
This isn't just learning, it's immersion. You'll experience what life looks like on the other side. What's available when you're booked out and profitable. The standard you're stepping into.
You need to FEEL it before you go home and build it.
What's included:
→ 2.5 days of intensive coaching, strategizing, and skill-building in an intimate group of just 6 stylists
→ Private luxury suite venue with everything you need to focus and create
→ All meals provided: upscale lunches, elevated dinners, and a final celebration brunch
→ Hands-on personalized strategy and skill building for YOUR specific businessÂ
→ Two weeks of group Voxer support after the event for integration and implementation
→ Connections with other ambitious stylists who will become your lifelong business allies
→ The embodied experience of luxury that will change how you see yourself, your business, and what you're capable of creating
You'll leave Toronto different than when you arrived.
Not just with strategies and systems (though you'll have those too), but with complete clarity on who you are and what you're building. Magnetic in your positioning. In the TRUTH of your power. With a fuck yes that doesn't waver. Unstoppable. With relationships that hold you to your new standard long after.


“It was such a privilege to be part of your Ascension mastermind. The energy in the room was incredible and you were so generous and giving of your knowledge and expertise.
It should have been such a big decision to step out of my business and away from my 4 kids to fly to the other side of the world but it was a no-brainer. I cannot begin to tell you the upgrades I have experienced both personally and professionally since our time together.
I know that this is only the beginning. I will forever have gratitude for the like-minded souls you brought together into that beautiful suite who I know will be my lifelong connections.
I do hope to work with you again. Best wishes with your own plans, both personally and professionally. You are a truly beautiful and gifted soul." -Samara P.


"I set new goals for my business and knew if I wanted to level up exponentially, I needed to invest in a coach who has the receipts for building a very successful business as a stylist. I am so glad I invested in Christie Ressel and the Ascension experience. In 2.5 days, I left with clarity on my offers, a new copy for my website, a completely new funnel that will attract my ideal clients, a brand new solid offer and every step to deliver that offer successfully. One of the most impactful elements was the mindset work that Christie includes. So powerful to readjust my mindset. I loved the intimate group, getting individual support for my business, and learning from others. Immersing myself in luxury and seeing what’s possible expanded my mind and what’s possible for me.
If you are serious about your styling business and ready to move to the next level, this is the investment you need to make. Thank you, Christie, for curating such an impactful experience."- Renee L.


"After attending the Ascension Mastermind, I am changed, and I know that my business will genuinely ascend. Christie is such an amazing leader and teacher, and what she can do with her experience and her words to help you elevate is incredible. But it's not just that. She really sees you, gets to know you, and helps you incorporate all of that into a truly individualized business plan. For 2.5 interactive days, we had hands-on training and personalized coaching from which we all learned a vast amount. It was a luxurious experience at a luxury hotel with beautiful lunches and dinners. Christie did this intentionally so that we could experience luxury, understand the feeling for ourselves, and the experience we should provide for our clients. What surprised us all was the connection we developed with near strangers in such a brief period. I met wonderful, smart women with different backgrounds, experiences, and niches. We are all in the same industry, but our approach and who we are is unique, and therefore our businesses are also unique, but we learned so much from one another. This is the environment that Christie purposefully cultivated because she understands that being in rooms with other strong, driven, powerful women is a force that cannot be denied.
I am so grateful for the Ascension Mastermind experience and I know that because of this one event, my business and my client experience with my business will be instantly elevated."- Michelle G.
