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.
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.

I don’t need another pair of wide leg linen pants.
I need to wear the damn ones I already own.
Earlier this year, I realized something: I’ve got great taste, a closet full of beautiful things…
And yet I kept reaching for the same 3 outfits on repeat — feeling stuck, uninspired, and like I “had nothing to wear.”
Not true. I had plenty to wear — I just wasn’t choosing to see it.
So I gave myself a challenge:
No new clothes for a year.
Instead of shopping, I’d start styling again.
Wearing what I already have. Rediscovering my personal style. Feeling good in my body right now — not 10 pounds from now, not after the next launch, not when I “have somewhere to go.”
Just because I want to.
Because I can.
And because showing up as yourself — unapologetically and on purpose — is always in style.
I’ll be sharing outfits here and in my stories for accountability but also fun! I hope you’ll follow along, even though this is a lot different from what I normally post. 💜

You know that moment when someone really sees you?
That’s what the WPI retreat felt like, over and over again.
Yes, there were strategy sessions. Yes, there was hot seat coaching. Yes, there were breakthroughs you could feel in your bones.
But the real magic? Happened in the in-between.
On the couch, over coffee, in those late-night convos where your guard drops and the truth comes out.
There’s something powerful about getting in a room with women who just get it.
Who’ve been where you are.
Who aren’t here to compete, but instead to remind you of what you’re capable of.
You deserve moments like these. Find the space, the time, and the means to invest in yourself.
You ARE worth it.
Love you, mean it.
Xo,
Candice
