20: You Are NOT Your Circumstances - A Pep Talk
There is something we all do sometimes and it’s complaining and feeling like we are our circumstances. I know what it's like getting stuck in the stories that are replying in your mind that you might not even be aware of. But it’s time to put an end to that. On this quick pep talk episode I want to inspire you to change your mindset towards getting yourself out the circumstances that feel limiting. You are incredibly resourceful and you have the power to make a change by investing in yourself and regaining control of your life. It’s not okay for us to be overworked anymore.

[09:14] Before every new wedding season I hear photographers make jokes about being overworked, stuck, and not being able to spend time with friends and family.

[16:59] If you want something bad enough, there are ways of making that happen. Be resourceful, invest in yourself, and see an immediate return on your investment. My experience with investing in myself and in my business to inspire you to do the same.
