This is a huge struggle for people who want to bring more of themselves into their business, but are being stretched way too thin by the day to day. But there is an answer and the answer is OUTSOURCING! I started outsourcing in my photography business a couple years ago and I'll never go back.

#5: Why I Joined a Mastermind

This year has been game-changing for my business in so many ways. Before I get into it, let me preface this episode by saying I’m about to get REAL when it comes to numbers, because I think it’s incredibly important to the story.

#1: Best Practices for Instagram Stories

It's not a secret I spend a lot of time on Instagram - I love it! But in case you aren't on the app as much as I am, let's start from the beginning. What is an Instagram story? Simply put, they are stories that live for 24 hours and then go away. That is how they started, but things have changed and they have become much more. Ultimately, they give your people a little behind the scenes into what your life looks like. There are definitely some best practices when it comes to using Instagram stor...
