I don’t believe we’re meant to do the same thing forever. In fact, I think most entrepreneurs are multi-passionate, multi-hyphenated creatives. And this is a sentiment that became even more obvious after we asked you what types of episodes you’d like to see on The Power in Purpose podcast. You want to learn about pivoting in business–what it’s like, how to start, and what to expect when you decide to leave behind your business/career and start something new.

In this episode, I’m giving you permission to pivot–and sharing what I learned when I sold my first business and followed my purpose and how you can start making a change in business today.

Maybe you’re feeling burnt out and you’re looking for something new and exhilarating. Or, maybe you don’t have the same love and joy you once did when you started your career. Pivoting can be scary, hard, and honestly stressful. 

But there’s not a day that goes by where I’m not grateful I took the leap and decided to shift course in my career.

If you’ve been feeling that nudge… or heck, that aggressive push to try something new, this episode is for you.

You wanted to learn more about pivoting in business–what it’s like, how you can get started, and what to expect when you decide to leave behind your business/career and start something new.

In this episode, I’m giving you permission to pivot–and sharing what I learned when I sold my first business and followed my purpose and how you can start pivoting in business today.

I know what pivoting is like firsthand; in October of 2019, I sold my 6-figure business of 12 years so I could coach and mentor wedding pros full time. After so many years doing (and being known for) one thing, pivoting was exciting and exhilarating.

But it was also hard, full of imposter syndrome, and felt like totally starting over. Today, I’m sharing the good, the bad, and the hard when it comes to pivoting.

This episode is part of our mindset series.

  • Why pivoting might be the right move for you
  • 7 steps to take to start pivoting
  • The 6 lessons I learned when pivoting my career

My little collection of red flags 🚩🤣
It’s giving…. relaxed ☺️ 

Just over here soaking up the sun while my AI assistant handles all the grunt work that used to take me hours. ☀️💻

Wedding season doesn’t have to mean burnout — especially when you’ve trained ChatGPT to work like it’s on payroll.

Inside my masterclass, I’ll show you exactly how to turn ChatGPT into your full-time planning assistant (and yes, it’s beginner friendly).

Lean in because I need to tell you something most wedding pros won’t say to your face 👀

When they see a vendor stretched too thin, they stop referring them.

If your business has outgrown you and you’re still trying to do it all yourself (with the long response times to prove it), you’re not just burning out... you’re sending a BIG red flag to wedding planners and other vendors.

When they see you dropping balls, missing emails, or barely holding it together, you stop looking like someone who is going to make them look good once they refer you 🫥

In this week’s episode of The Power in Purpose, I’m sharing the most common (and silent) red flags that are killing your referrals and the practical steps to win them back. Because building relationships in this industry isn’t about showing up once at a networking event.

If your phone isn’t ringing with the referrals you want, this is the episode you can’t afford to skip.

If you’re using ChatGPT without training it on your brand voice…

you’re basically letting a robot with no personality run your marketing and comms.

And you know what that sounds like… bland, boring, and just like every other wedding pro on the internet. (Sorry Chatty, but it’s true 💀).

That’s why tomorrow I’m hosting a live workshop to fix this for you:

✨ You’ll walk away with your own Brand Voice Guideline you can drop into ChatGPT (and share with your VA, copywriter, or team).

📝 We’ll do real-time exercises so ChatGPT finally sounds like you.

⚡ It’s just 90 minutes and I’ll guide you through it step by step.

💻 Plus you’ll get access to the replay, so if you can’t join me live, you’ll have everything you need.

See you in the workshop!!
