In this podcast episode, Alora discusses her trend predictions for wedding photographers in 2024. 

One trend is that of a 'soft CEO life', which balances personal life aspects with the flexibility of entrepreneurship, and a move away from 'hustle culture'. 

Other anticipated trends include seeking business simplicity, endorsing authentic creativity, accurately identifying dream clients and fostering a community spirit over solo entrepreneurship.

With the impending crash & burn of hustle culture, pivoting to a soft CEO life is what you should aim for.

The soft CEO life is one with the perfect mixture of relaxation and revenue, one where you choose to have a more balanced life than chasing 9 figures.

Hustling too much will lead you spiraling to never being content, which also leads to sometimes neglecting people in your life. The Wedding CEO program teaches not just this, but doing less while making so much more money.
