t Gino Chapman to share their life-changing experience volunteering with HairAid in Cambodia. Both on their first HairAid project, Corey and Gino open up about teaching haircutting skills to people in critical poverty—from community centers to prisons—and how the week reshaped their perspectives on service, resilience, and the power of the hair industry.

You’ll hear:

  • How Corey and Gino got involved with HairAid and prepared for the trip

  • What it’s like teaching six haircuts in four days with limited resources and language barriers

  • The impact of giving students a certificate that can change their future

  • Emotional highlights, including meeting graduates now running their own salons

  • Cultural experiences in Cambodia: Angkor Wat at sunrise, Kulin Mountain waterfalls, and an elephant sanctuary

  • Why “presence means surrender” became Corey’s biggest takeaway

  • The resilience of the Cambodian people and the lasting friendships formed

Whether you’re a hairstylist looking to give back or someone curious about humanitarian work, this conversation is a powerful reminder that your skills can change lives—yours included.
