Called to Both - Balancing Motherhood and Business for Photographers

156: I Don’t Like My Business Anymore… Now What?—How to Pivot a Photography Business


Listen Later

It's not that you hate your business—you might have just outgrown it. This week, I’m sharing a deeply honest conversation inspired by a Voxer message from one of my clients who realized that she no longer wants her current business to be her reality five years from now. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your own work or unsure how to pivot, this episode is for you.

I walk you through the first three steps to take when you realize it’s time to make a shift—without throwing everything away or burning out. Whether you're staring down a total reinvention or a subtle shift, this episode will help you ground your pivot with clarity and direction.

In this episode:

  • How to determine if your pivot is a tweak or a total overhaul
  • Why understanding your income dependency is essential before making moves
  • The role of support and accountability when everything feels uncertain
