You could spend all your energy trying to cut back... or you could use that same energy to make more.

In this week’s episode of The Power in Purpose, @erinn_bridgman shares such a refreshing perspective on money, and it’s one that I believe every creative entrepreneur needs to hear.

Sure, there’s a time and place to look at where your money’s going. I believe one of the fastest ways to put money in your pocket is to stop spending it. But what if you shifted your focus to how easily you could bring more in?

One additional wedding.
A higher-margin package.
A simple pricing adjustment.

That’s the difference between staying in survival mode and stepping into abundance.

For most wedding pros, the latte isn’t the problem. It’s the story you’re telling yourself about what’s possible.

You’re closer than you think to creating the income and stability you’ve been chasing.

Here’s one of my favorite things about being a business owner...

You don’t have to wait for permission to make more money.

You don’t need to ask for a raise.
You are the raise.

In this week’s episode of The Power in Purpose, @erinn_bridgman and I talked about one of the most empowering parts of being a wedding pro and that’s the ability to create income on demand.

When you understand your numbers, you realize how much control you actually have. You can double down on your most profitable offer, take on one or two more weddings at a higher rate, or make small shifts that directly impact your paycheck.

If only someone would show you the way, right?

My hope is that this conversation will light a fire under you to stop waiting for “someday” and start acting like the CEO your business needs today.

You keep waiting for that future version of yourself (you know, the one who’s confident with money, pays herself first, and runs a business that feels calm, sustainable, and profitable).

But she’s not coming.

You aren’t just going to wake up and “become her” someday. You need to start building her now.

In this episode, I brought on @erinn_bridgman to talk all about building WEALTH as a wedding pro, and this future self exercise is truly just the beginning.

I know firsthand that when you start identifying as that version of yourself now, everything changes. You stop operating from survival mode and start leading from security and abundance.

I want that for you and Erinn does too!

Next week, she’s hosting a free masterclass where she’s sharing her 4-part framework to help you ditch the money stress and pay yourself first every month.

💸 Last year, I spent $60,000 on my own education and business development.

Courses. Masterminds. One-on-one coaching. All of it.

And while those numbers sound big (and they are), I also love investing in my business. I’ve worked with a coach since 2017, and I can confidently say while not every investment I make is a winner, many of the investments I’ve made are a major reason my business looks the way it does today.

But here’s what I’ve learned along the way:
✨ Not every investment gives you the same ROI.
✨ Where you are in your journey matters when deciding which style of education and support is right for you
✨ Growth happens when you’re the smallest fish in the room

In this week’s podcast episode, I’m breaking down exactly what I learned from investing $60K into my growth and more importantly, how you can use those lessons to make smarter decisions about YOUR next investment.

Think of it as a buyer’s guide to business education, told by someone who’s been on both sides: student and coach.
