We had the good fortune of connecting with Tracey Raber and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Tracey, what’s the most important lesson your business/career has taught you?
As a pre-teen I had an early interest in the creativity of the beauty industry. I loved the imagery in magazines like Vogue, Harpers Bazaar and the like. The beauty inspired and sparked my creativity with hair and makeup. I saw and experienced how that could transform how a person feels and how they are perceived in the world. I finally entered the field as a cosmetologist after a divorce and began a completely new life as a single mother. I had the knowledge, creativity and skills with one exception and that was a lack of people skills. I started my stylist career I was very inept at navigating the ins and outs of the beauty business. The biggest blessing my career has given me is the skills and experience to be confident and assertive and speak with authority and convey my message with articulation. The most important lesson my career has given me is the gift of personal confidence and to understand that we all deserve to be and feel confident in who we are and what we have to offer the world.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Our newest baby and passion/business venture is Neurofeedback Associates of Texas LLC. My personal journey with Neuroptimal Dynamical®️ neurofeedback started in January 2022, my personal experience and my daughters life changing results were so astonishing we knew we had to bring this to the world. We opened for business Sept 2022, we have been blessed to help several people to date become happier version’s of themselves! Most people are unfamiliar with Neurofeedback. It is a type of biofeedback for the central nervous system aka the brain.
I went back to school while managing a salon for the world’s largest salon corporation and earned my BA in General studies and a minor in business administration in 2018. We then became certified trainers with the Zengar Institute August 2022. We plan to aquire additional certifications and education moving forward.
We are certified trainers for Neuroptimal Dynamical®️ neurofeedback systems.
Neurofeedback optimizes and balances the brain by disrupting the maladaptive patterns acquired in response to various life circumstances like stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADD, addiction, Lyme disease, PTSD, insomnia, and so much more.
Passive sensors are placed on the scalp with EEG paste, which reads the brain waves. It does not involve the application of voltage or current to the brain, therefore it is entirely non-invasive, yet highly effective similarly to other well known forms of Biofeedback. “Neuroptimal Dynamical®️” Neurofeedback is the only non-linear system in the world!
Changing the world one session at a time!
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
When I’m not working or promoting both businesses, I am spending quality time with friends and family. We love the ft worth stockyards and frequent some wonderful new establishments in addition to some historic landmarks as well. We love Hotel Drover, and chef Tim Loves restaurants there, like Lonesome Dove and Paloma Suerte (their split king crab legs are phenomenal!) We love the embracement of the culture there. You can enjoy a walk down main street with your choice of beverage and see the cattle drive while watching classic cars and trucks slowly pass. You can take an old western horse drawn carriage ride while enjoying the old wild west scenery!
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My 32 year old daughter Victoria Verranault and my very supportive husband Leo Raber have been my driving force. I strive to be the best I can be, to be a great role model. We have become business partners. Combined we have an Auto transport company (my husband) I have Traci Raber Salon Studio, Neurofeedback Associates of Texas LLC, and I am a part-time jewelry designer. We work in harmony and have been able to achieve some great things working together!
