  • Thank you for the Support 1 Month in
    Thank you everyone that's tuned in, gave a like, comment, or share on social, it all means the world to me. As the podcast expands, your feedback means the world to me so I'm going to be expanding the infrastructure to allow for the highlighting of people in the community and a reboot of an interview series called the spotlight I implemented 3 years ago earlier in my creative career.

  • An Open letter to anyone looking to be "Motivational"
    The best way I believe to be motivational is to stay true to yourself. There's no need to appear to be someone you're not when you know in your soul it doesen't feel right. If you become truly honest with yourself then that's where the motivational spirit will come from. Trust me, success is an internal thing, not from the external things that we gratify so the time.

  • The Faster we Understand Ourselves, the more clarity well have in Our Aspirations
    As in observing the landscape of many developing business owners like myself, I'm realizing that alot of us are entering the business world solely because it's easy. Not because we love sales, not because we love the process of building meaningful relationships, not because we love the climb. Today, I implore that you truly look yourself in the mirror and understand whether you're even cut out to make a business, whether you're actually good at building a brand and whether you need a partner who's good. Maybe you might be a writer, or maybe you're better off just giving out hair advice instead of trying to sell it. If one person can understand this and figure themselves out, your path will become so much clearer.

  • You Don't have any Customers because You're Lazy
    Hey Podcast tonight's episode is about measuring your self awareness. I'm lead to believe that we don't have all the customers we desire because of simple laziness. Pursuing any business isn't easy. It requires time dedication and perseverance. Don't sit and dwell that you don't have your customers. You have to go hunt for them. We're too passive with our customer acquisition and this is a call to action to be active in seeking out the people that we want to work with.

  • Honesty as a Business Strategy
    Hey Podcast, today I reflect on earlier this week where I lost my SD card that contained photos from a bridal shower that I covered last weekend. Honesty is a great business tactic. It allows us as business owners to keep our integrity and leverage as a service provider. It means that sometimes we're losing short term money but we're building brand, which is one of the most powerful tools that we can have in our toolkits.

  • Are You Playing For Legacy Or Money?
    As I wait to execute a Photoshoot at 8:30 this morning I had some thoughts around truly aligning yourself with your mission. Are you in the game you're in for legacy, or are you in it for a quick flip? That choice is up to you but I think the quicker you're honest with your ideals, the quicker you can get on the path to maximizing this!

  • What Motivates me
    Hey podcast, what's your motivation? Today I give my thoughts from my world view on what has kept me motivated. In short, the love for what I do has kept me motivated. Not the money, not the women, the sheer love of creating.

  • The Raw Truth About Being A Photographer In 2019

    Hey Podcast, in 2019 it is difficult to be a photographer but it's also one of the best times to do so given the abundance of opportunity. One thing we have to quickly realize is that we're commodities. People add us to their carts, do price comparisons, and select whoever fits their budget or current circumstance at the moment. 

    Over the course of the past five years, I've learned that It's usually never personal.

    And while we're commodities, the landscape is such that media is also commoditised. What this means is that we can engage with our potential customers at scale on platforms like instagram and Facebook, engage with them and put our two cents into the world. 

    The only question now is are you going to spend the time to engage with people and go hunt for your customers?

  • Free Work Never Ends
    Hey everyone, I spent most of the day editing and engaging with people in instagram so I wanted to get on here real quick to speak about the importance of free work. It is the gateway to opportunity. By doing free work you get yourself in the door, you create an opportunity to build connections, and you get to show who you are. Five years into the game, I'm still activity collaborating and constantly innovating on ways to increase my content output. I hope this sparks you to keep working!

  • Stop Overthinking it, just go!
    Hey Podcast, I just came to a self realization with how I'm gonna add more content to the platform. I'm not gonna overthink. I'll be having small segments where I drop my 2 cents in this space with a relevant title. I hope that it brings value because I know that sometimes a 2 minute clip might work better than a 9 minute episode for some people! Let me know your thoughts!
