This episode was not on the schedule. It wasn't even on my radar. However, over the weekend I tried having AI edit one of my sessions and it was mind blowing... so I shared about it. I was proud of myself for trying something new and pushing myself to figure it out. What I didn't realize was that it was going to start a firestorm in the private editing community.  When I first started outsourcing, I became a strong advocate for the private editor. I tried the mega editing companies and they always fell short. I even went so far as to make a small mini-course with my own editor to help photographers learn more about private editing and how to become one!  So, when I shared that a robot edited my session, the fear and anxiety that all editors have been pushing down and trying to not think about was brought to the surface.  I understand their fear, their anxiety and their frustration that I shared what I did. However, after many conversations with private editors and leaders in that space, I was encouraged that there are others that think the way I do. What if this wasn't the worst thing ever? What if this was more of an opportunity than it is a problem? I know it's not what anyone wants and the fear is valid but my hope is that this podcast will allow ALL of us to see the possibility in the parts of life that we wouldn't choose!

I'm really working on habit stacking and my Lume Box is the best tool in my toolbox to really make sure I'm focusing on my health and well-being while simultaneously getting ready for the day or reading at night.
