🎉 Episode 100: Two Hours of Game-Changing Wisdom You Don't Want to Miss

We're throwing a party—and you're invited! Join Laurie Hartwell, Founder and CEO of the CWP Society, and Krisy, COO of the CWP Society and Master Certified Wedding Planner, for our milestone 100th episode—a special two-hour celebration packed with stories, breakthroughs, and the hard-won advice that's transformed countless planning careers.

Settle in for the full experience as we revisit our favorite moments from 100 episodes, then dive deep into the questions planners are asking right now: How do I price with confidence? Build bulletproof timelines? Command vendor respect? Protect the luxury of personal service in an increasingly automated industry?

Here's what awaits you in this extended celebration:

We get refreshingly honest about the habits quietly eroding your value—posting DIY checklists that replace your expertise, leaning on automations that shift work onto clients, and underselling the one thing that can't be replicated: you. You'll discover why human connection is today's ultimate luxury, how to transform your process from paint-by-number to Picasso, and the art of curating vendor lists that protect every guest experience.

We tackle comparison fatigue head-on and share the mindset shifts that keep you present, celebrating wins, and building momentum that lasts. Education versus experience? We're calling it: that's a false choice. Learn how certification validates your expertise, sharpens your systems, and differentiates you in markets where polished websites mask untrained planners.

Expect practical gold: contracts that truly protect you, communication strategies that keep teams aligned, and boundaries around office hours, capacity, and recovery that prevent burnout before it starts. Whether you're new and hungry for confidence or seasoned and ready for a reset, these two hours deliver the frameworks to serve brilliantly, charge what you're worth, and build a business you're genuinely proud of.

Don't skip ahead—tune in for the entire two hours. The stories, the laughs, the aha moments... this is the conversation that reminds you why you fell in love with this work in the first place.
