And anotha one 🙌 Just wrapped up another interview with Bold Journey. Grateful for the opportunity to share my story and passion for making an impact in both healthcare and aesthetics💉 Thankful for my family, friends, and patients who motivate me to keep pushing forward to make a difference.
Gabriel, so great to be with you and I think a lot of folks are going to benefit from hearing your story and lessons and wisdom. Imposter Syndrome is something that we know how words to describe, but it’s something that has held people back forever and so we’re really interested to hear about your story and how you overcame imposter syndrome.
Imposter syndrome is a real thing. When I first heard the term, I was confused, but I quickly realized how relevant it was in my life. Working in a highly competitive industry, it’s easy to doubt yourself and your abilities. When I first started injecting, I was overwhelmed by feelings of self-doubt, questioning if I was capable of success. However, I learned that believing in yourself is essential. Confidence is not the same as arrogance—there’s nothing wrong with trusting in your
skills, as long as you don’t diminish others in the process.
To be successful and deliver excellent results, I realized that consistent practice and experience are key. It’s not about being perfect from the start, but about being committed to growth and learning. Once I decided to fully invest my energy and focus into aesthetics, I gained the confidence and skill I needed to become a better injector..
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
My name is Gabriel Gonzalez, and I’m the founder of The Aesthetic Palace, dedicated to providing tailored aesthetic treatments that prioritize patient safety, natural results, and ethical care. My journey into this field began as a registered nurse, where I developed a strong foundation in patient care before transitioning into aesthetics, driven by my passion for helping others feel their best. At The Aesthetic Palace, I offer services such as neuromodulators, dermal fillers, collagen biostimulators, PRP therapy, microneedling, and laser treatments. Each treatment is designed to enhance confidence by highlighting natural beauty in a safe, welcoming environment. What I find most special about my work is the trust and connections I build with my patients. I’m passionate about ensuring that every patient feels heard, valued, and educated about their treatment options. This focus on transparency and personalized care sets me apart from other injectors. Looking ahead, I’m excited to expand my services, grow my practice, and continue to stay at the forefront of advancements in aesthetics. My goal is to inspire confidence and provide transformative care while upholding the highest ethical standards in every aspect of my practice.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
The three most important qualities in my journey have been resilience, adaptability, and continuous learning. Resilience helped me face challenges and grow from setbacks, which I recommend developing by embracing obstacles as learning opportunities. Adaptability has been essential in navigating a constantly evolving industry, and I encourage others to stay open to change and seek growth through feedback. Lastly, a commitment to continuous learning has driven my success by keeping me informed and improving my skills. These qualities build a strong foundation for anyone pursuing growth and success.
How would you describe your ideal client?
My ideal patient is someone who values and trusts professional recommendations. As an injector, I prioritize creating natural, balanced results, which means I’m not afraid to tell my patients “no” if a requested treatment is unnecessary or could lead to an unnatural look. On the other hand, achieving certain results may require a more aggressive approach or additional product, which I always explain with honesty and transparency. I appreciate patients who are open to discussing treatment plans and trust my expertise to guide them toward their aesthetic goals safely and effectively. This collaboration ensures the best outcomes and helps build a strong, trusting relationship.
