She's a co-founder of The Family Narrative retreat and the host of This Can't Be That Hard, a podcast dedicated to helping photographers run profitable, sustainable businesses they love. She's also a single mom of two boys, a collector of big earrings, and the proud owner of a 2002 Toyota Camry that just crossed the 200K mile mark.

On this episode, Annemie talks about her roundabout journey to a photography career, how she developed her Simple Sales System, growing a successful business as a single mother, her Family Narrative retreat and why you need to pick up a phone to gain clients and build relationships.
