I'm going to tell you something I've never said quite this directly before.
I didn't think a photo booth business could make a million dollars.
Not mine. Not anyone's. I thought there was a ceiling on this industry, that you could do well, make decent money, have a good little business. But seven figures? From photo booths? That felt like it was reserved for other kinds of businesses. More "legitimate" ones.
That belief was quietly running everything. My pricing. My vision. The size of the goals I let myself set. Because why build something big if you don't actually believe big is on the table? And then I found today's guest.
I was pacing back and forth in my backyard, earbuds in, listening to her audiobook, and something cracked open in me that I didn't know was closed. I made a decision right there on that grass: this business could be a million dollar business. I was going to move into my dream house. I was going to stop letting a belief I'd never even examined out loud put a cap on what I was building.
I'm recording this from that dream house. I've since built multiple 7-figure brands in this industry.
The one I once thought had a ceiling.
That's why this episode is personal. Today I'm sitting down with Denise Duffield-Thomas, Hay House author, money mindset coach, and the woman behind two books that are now permanently on my recommendation list: Get Rich, Lucky Bitch and Chill and Prosper. She's helped over 10,000 entrepreneurs through her Money Bootcamp, and she has a way of holding up a mirror that makes you go... oh. That's what I've been believing.
We get into the money blocks that are specific to service businesses like ours. The ones that don't look like money blocks. The ones that feel like logic, like humility, like just being realistic. We talk about pricing paralysis, the myth of the critic-proof price, the "keyless life" framework for building a business that stops draining you, and the real reason so many photo booth founders stay stuck, even when their business is technically working.
And the part where Denise talks about the value of what you're actually creating for your clients? I wasn't expecting it to land the way it did.
