Inside My Live In-Person Talk on Imposter Syndrome, Bookings + Building a Better Photography Business I Ep 171

Ever feel like you’re running on a hamster wheel – shoot, edit, deliver, repeat – while your creativity and energy slowly drain away? You’re not alone. In this episode, I’m sharing the real talk from a recent in-person workshop I ran for a group of photographers in Ontario, where we dove deep into the struggles of burnout, imposter syndrome, and the never-ending to-do list. 

I open up about my own journey from control-freak perfectionist to a freedom-driven business owner, and how learning to outsource (and trust others!) completely transformed my life and business. If you’re craving more time, more joy, and more space to actually live – this episode is for you.

In this week’s episode you’ll discover:

• Why burnout shows up again and again – and how to finally break the cycle 
  
  
• The real root of imposter syndrome (and a surprisingly simple “in-the-moment” cure)
  
  
• My Outsourcing Made Easy framework – how I scaled to $1.6M in revenue while working 70% less 
  
  
• A mindset shift that changed everything: Why you don’t need more time or confidence… just removing this one thing from your day-to-day.
  
  
• How to let go of control and still keep your unique style and high standards (yes, it’s possible!)
