Show Notes
The first few years will be a lot of work with potentially not a lot of reward.
Every year in her business she has wanted to quit, you are not alone if you have ever wanted to throw in the towel in your business.
Sometimes you just have to start, you won't know everything when you do, so some transitions will be necessary. You learn as you go.
She never thought she would have other people write for her, but she had to outsource that at some point. Huge transition that was so positive.
She initially thought ads would be how she would monetize, but transitioned into digital product sales, workshops and partnering with other people in the photography worlds.

Transitions in life: prioritize, prioritize, prioritize. Her family is absolute priority so when the big transitions take place, the focus goes to what is most important.

Three things to someone facing a transition:
- Give yourself grace- you don't always have to be go, go, going! Its OK to not want to rule the world.
- Look at what you can outsource and look at what you can let go of. Tell yourself you will try it for a few months and then if it doesn't work you can take it back.
- Understand that no one is paying as much to your business as you are
