Turning a creative passion into a business can be such a beautiful thing.
When you’re able to put food on the table doing work that fills your cup and lights you up, it really can feel like a pinch-me moment.
Without intention though, a creative business can easily become all-consuming, leading to long hours for less than minimum wage, overwhelm and self-doubt.
I can’t say I’ve figured it all out or found perfect balance yet (does that even exist?), but as a busy Māmā of three who has been doing this for 7+ years, invested deeply in mentoring, education and systems, I’ve learnt a lot along the way. Most of all, I’ve done the reps — putting those lessons into practice and continuing to learn and grow from every shoot.
And what I do know, I’m always happy to share. I’m a genuine open book, who will always keep it real and honest. Whether it’s helping you refine your systems and workflows to get your time back, or building confidence in your camera skills and posing so you can show up fully in your work, I’m here to support you, and I look forward to growing alongside you.
how to work with me:
Come behind the scenes.
After years of putting my personal health on the back burner and working until 2am after the kids were asleep, I'm finally prioritising health and wellbeing again, and no longer subscribing to the hustle/burn out culture.
To do this, I'm currently in a massive overhaul process of the entire back end of my business and starting to outsource more areas of the business. This isn't an overnight process however, in fact, much to the despise of my impulsive self, it's a VERY slow journey that is also requiring a lot of patience and personal development.
During this period of time, I have decided to no longer offer mentoring or workshop services. (Don't worry, I will be back! I have LOVED my time dabbling in education!)
In the meantime however, I will soon be sharing the behind the scenes of my overhaul process via weekly updates to my mailing list.
So if you're also on a journey of running a successful business that doesn't require you to give up all your family time, health and wellbeing, make sure to subscribe and follow along!
