You don’t need another photography course. You need connection.

In this episode of RAW Edit, Sarah and Kellie sit down with their biz coach and community-builder-extraordinaire Sabrina Gebhardt to talk about what really makes a photography community thrive—and why so many photographers are craving more depth, more realness, and more support.

If you’ve ever felt isolated behind your laptop, this conversation is a breath of fresh air. Sabrina shares how she accidentally built her first mastermind during the pandemic, what makes her Round Table membership so magical, and why 40% of her students return to Root to Rise more than once. (Spoiler alert: it's that good.)

We also dive into:

• How Sabrina picks her guest speakers (hint: intuition and industry trends)
• The magic of alumni retreats and how they started
• Why showing up fully is the secret to building real friendships
• How to outsource, avoid burnout, and fall in love with your business again

Sabrina doesn’t gate keep anything. She drops gems on balancing business with life, navigating seasons as a mom and creative, and how to romanticize the life you’re already living. Whether you’re brand new to community or ready to go all-in on a mastermind, this episode will leave you inspired, encouraged, and maybe even crying happy tears.
