"Stop blending in with everyone else and start showing up as the 'of course' option."

 

Key Takeaways

• Identifying as both an artist and a business owner is crucial for success in the wedding industry
• Cutting out external noise and seeking validation from within is necessary for making confident decisions in business
• Believing in oneself and recognizing one's worth is essential for charging appropriately and pursuing opportunities
