Setting boundaries with wedding clients is something we all know we should be doing, and listen, plenty of us do have a boundaries problem. But here's what I've noticed as a coach: there's something deeper at play, and it's the real reason you're answering client texts from your dinner table, your kid's softball game, or the beach on a Saturday.

• [04:47]: Do you need to be responsive 24/7 to have a great client experience?

• [09:42]: Why setting boundaries with wedding clients makes good service possible

Something has been happening inside my programs lately that makes my week every single time I see it. The women I coach have stopped dabbling in AI for wedding pros and started building with it. What they're creating is blowing my mind! We're not talking about using AI to write captions or generate a few content ideas. We're talking about actual tools that go off and do the work for them while they're living their lives and focusing on the things that matter most.

On this episode of The Power in Purpose Podcast:

• [04:16]: What you need to understand before using AI for wedding pros

• [05:52]: The first way I'm seeing wedding pros use AI

• [10:55]: The second way I'm seeing wedding pros use AI

• [15:09]: The third way I'm seeing wedding pros use AI

• [18:57]: The fourth way I'm seeing wedding pros use AI

In this episode, I'm sharing a conversation that started inside my Wedding Pro Insiders Mastermind retreat here in Barbados and quickly became one of the most impactful discussions we had all week. We spent time talking about refinement, not growth for growth's sake, not adding more, but getting honest about what's actually serving us in a six-figure wedding business and what's simply creating more complexity.

On this episode of The Power in Purpose Podcast:

• [04:22]: The one skill I think you need to hone in your six-figure wedding business this year

• [05:42]: The question every wedding pro needs to ask themselves now

• [08:03]: What's breaking your business right now (two examples)

• [17:19]: How we can start to simplify our businesses

• [21:13]: 3 filters to run through everything in your business

• [25:20]: The categories most six-figure wedding business owners need to be more discerning about

• [34:02]: Bringing this skill outside your business

Have you ever felt like your life looks completely fine on the outside, but inside you're barely holding it together? That's exactly where I found myself and it wasn't until a routine physiotherapy appointment that everything finally clicked into place for me. In today's episode, I'm sharing my very personal journey with nervous system dysregulation in the wedding industry: what it is, how I discovered I'd been living in this state for years (possibly decades), and why I've made it one of my biggest priorities (both in my own life and inside my mastermind, Wedding Pro Insiders).

Please note: I am not a medical professional, and nothing in this episode is medical advice. If anything resonates with you, I encourage you to bring it to your doctor.

On this episode of The Power in Purpose Podcast:

• [07:46]: A quick explanation of your nervous system

• [12:31]: My experience with my nervous system dysregulation discovery

• [18:22]: Listen to this if you're high-achieving

• [22:33]: My symptoms with nervous system dysregulation

• [29:29]: Understanding nervous system dysregulation

• [34:44]: What I've done to support my nervous system

• [41:14]: A note about hormones for women

• [44:30]: Prioritizing your nervous system in your wedding business
