Trying to be perfect and do things perfectly … all the time … is freaking exhausting. It’s unattainable and it’s unsustainable. It is time to let go of perfectionism and accomplish all the things you want to do. Ready to learn how to let go of perfectionism, so you can start getting things done?
THAT’s what we’re discussing in today’s podcast episode.
I am a recovering perfectionist and today, I want to share my journey with you and all of the tips and tricks that I have picked up along the way. Most importantly – I want to show you that sometimes letting go of the perfect image in your head (and just doing) is the best step you could ever take.
Being a perfectionist means you care about the details–and you want to get whatever it is you’re doing “right.” But perfectionism can hold you back from doing anything at all.

If you’re sitting on a sales call running through your bullet point list of what’s in each package, congratulations. You just signaled to a luxury couple that you’re not the right fit for them.
Luxury clients are not shopping for “20 hours of planning” or “30 free belly bands” or “500 edited images.”
They’re shopping for the version of their wedding that only you can pull off.
They want to know what you’ll DO. How you think. What you’ve handled. Where you’d push back.
If they wanted features, they’d go to The Knot and filter by price.
They’re talking to you because they want a person with a point of view.
So the next time you’re on a consultation with a luxury buyer, give them one.

A typical Monday for me. How do you spend your Monday? 💜

Nobody is coming to choose you or your business.
I said this to a student last month who had been in the business for years. Her process was dialed in. She had weddings on the books. But the work she was getting didn’t reflect what she was actually capable of, and she’d been waiting for the right client to come along and finally give her the chance to prove it.
That’s not how it works.
If you want to be booked for the work you actually want to do, you have to start showing it. Styled shoots. Venue tour reels. A post that says “manifesting this venue for my next dream couple.”
If you sit around and wait for a dream client to pick you so that you can prove what you’re capable of, you’re going to be waiting around a long time.
On the flip side…
Another client told me how she pivoted out of the $70K weddings she didn’t want by telling two prospective clients their budget was actually going to be $120K.
Both signed.
She didn’t wait for permission. She decided. She chose.
I want you to do the same.
What’s one thing you could post this week that shows the work you want to be hired for — not the work you currently have?
