Have you ever caught yourself talking so negatively to yourself? Or thinking so negatively about life circumstances, money, other people, about yourself. Having a negative relationship with your thoughts is, in our opinion, the most detrimental to your life. We are here to give you some tough love in changing your negative talk, whether you know you are doing it, or this episode is an eye opener for you in changing that habit. Let’s start working and living from a place of our positive values and not of your negative talk.

Summer is always a busy season, and for us as wedding industry professionals, that adds a whole other layer to it. April has a few big changes coming up and we talk it out and share our thoughts on how “find the balance” or prioritize your values as those changes happen. We also get into future plans, what you can do to make those plans, but also keep in mind to reevaluate and check in on the path you are on.
