We were so stoked to be joined by Brandi Munoz - the founder of La Loupe Vintage here in San Diego!!!! It was so fun learning about how she built this brand and the story of her shops - and it was seriously inspiring to hear how she's learned to listen to her audience and pivot accordingly. She is a badass and you are going to love hearing her story as much as we did!

Jessica Hawks went from college dropout & desk-job burnout, to virtual assistant making $9k a month to NOW growing an empire of empowering other p eople to do the same. She was Kami's virtual assistant in 2020 and K watched her tik tok blow up and saw her transformation first-hand, so this was a special one for us. We talked about what it was like to blow up so quickly, what was happening in her personal life at the same time, tik tok, and so so so much more. We feel like we barely scratched the surface with everything we wanted to talk about with her - so get comfy with Jess cuz you're likely going to see her back on the pod soooon!

This is a story of not settling for anything less than your dream life and not letting anyting stand in your way. The interent is a crazy place and she has pushed through soooo much to get to where she is (bullies and haters like you wouldn't believe and so much more).

If you listened to episode 41, "Gabe's Big Announcement," you know that he is making a huge life and career change by transitioning out of the wedding industry into the fashion industry. Breaking into a new industry is no joke - it sucks to feel like a noob and it can feel impossible to know where to start. But if you are listening to this, it's likely because you started a business at some point which means you've been there. And if you're an entrepreneur like we are it's likely you'll be there again! In this episode, Gabe walks us through the steps he's taking to get started in his new adventure. We know so many wedding photographers who are currently phasing out of the wedding world and branching out into new industries and starting new businesses, so we hope this will be massively helpful!

In 2020, photographer Allison Davis embarked on an incredible journey. Our conversation was so inspiring and her story will blow your minds - I am honestly at a loss for words trying to sum it up. She hit the road to search for beauty during the global pandemic and set out to photograph the entire west coast in 30 days - which she freakin' DID and is now selling a coffee-table book filled with hundreds of pages of beautiful landscape photography and her words during the experience. We hear some of her stories from the road, what the experience was like, a bit of the publication process, her plans for the future... we are SO GRATEFUL she shared her heart with us. Enjoy this one!!!!!

This weeks episode is incredibly special for us... we are joined by our very own Virtual Assistant - RAIN TAVIA!!!!! We both wouldn't be able to run our businesses without the help of VA's, and if you've been following us, you KNOW how much we value outsourcing. The virtual assistant world is huge, and Rain breaks down for us all the kinds of different VA's there are, how to find them, what to look for, and we also learn a bit of her story as well as everything she does for us. We LOVE Rain and couldn't do this without her!!!
