Truth talk: Oftentimes what holds our business success back is how we value ourselves.  

In this podcast episode, I talk about the vital aspect of valuing oneself, and how self worth plays into entrepreneurship and creativity. This topic highlights a common tendency among creatives to wait for validation or opportunities before investing in their business.

But I challenge you to adopt a proactive mindset for 2024. I encourage you to invest in your business FIRST, emphasizing the importance of believing in your self-worth and business potential.

This episode is a look ahead to 2024 with a mindset free of limiting beliefs imposed by current circumstances. We talk how to make strategic investments for your growth. 

Get ready to have your mindset refreshed, and maybe your mind a little blown. Embrace a proactive approach, believing in your worthiness, and making choices today that pave the way for a more successful tomorrow.

And on the topic of investing in your photography business....

How to find your people, so you can build a sustainable photography business (Insights from the Conversation with John Dolan)

From my refreshing conversation with John Dolan, I’ve picked out two encouraging principles that, when diligently practiced, will make a HUGE difference in the way we manage our photography businesses. 

The first is the idea that questions are more important than answers, and the second is knowing who your people are. Think: ideal client avatars, but less avatar and more real people ;) 

Join me as we explore these two ideas. You’ll see how they will empower you to build a sustainable and profitable photography business based on working with your true people, your raving fans, all the while establishing your authenticity both in art and business. 

I also shared that I’m doing a limited-time discount on my flagship group coaching program, Storyteller’s School. You’ll save $500 if you sign up before December 31!
