In this episode of The Power in Purpose Podcast, I’m diving into something that had me shouting “oh no they didn’t” at my phone—a 67-question inquiry email (yes, you read that right: sixty-seven questions) that a couple sent to a photographer before even hopping on a call.

Will tariffs raise wedding costs? Today’s episode is unlike any we’ve done before. We’ve got a bit of an emergency brewing in the wedding industry, and I felt compelled to hop on the mic and break it all down with someone who really knows what’s going on behind the scenes: my husband, Jason. I somehow convinced him to join me (first time ever!) and share his deep expertise in shipping, logistics, and global trade. Because here’s the deal — new tariffs are being applied across nearly all imported goods, and it’s not just “big business” that’s feeling the pressure. This is hitting florists, planners, rental companies, caterers — all of us. Hard. It’s time we talk about it.

I’m diving headfirst into a hot topic that’s been making the rounds on Threads (and honestly, everywhere else): the “wedding tax.” You’ve probably heard the rumor, right?

Hey friends! You are in for an incredible episode today because I got to sit down with none other than the amazing Akeshi Akinseye, the powerhouse behind Kesh Events.

You need to stop hiding and start putting yourself out there. Especially in 2025. As a business coach for women in the wedding industry for over a decade, I've seen this pattern time and again. Talented women, capable of achieving great things, hold themselves back by not marketing themselves effectively. You’re afraid to put yourself out there - and you procrastinate and make a shit tone of excuses as to why you haven’t marketed your business recently. This lack of visibility in marketing can have serious consequences, the worst being the closure of your business. It’s time for you to stop hiding and to get serious about your marketing strategy with what I like to call a little dose of New Girl Energy #NGE. In this episode, I break down for you what is at stake if you keep hiding and how to infuse your marketing with some New Girl Energy! (This episode originally aired as episode 109 and we are recasting it this month to help you think about marketing for your business in 2025. Enjoy!)

I've got something a little different for you today, something that's been on my mind for a while now. It's about wedding directories - you know, those big names that promise to skyrocket your business visibility and send a flood of leads your way. Well, I've decided it's time to pull back the curtain and share my honest, no-holds-barred thoughts on these platforms. And let me tell you, it's not all sunshine and roses. In the latest episode of the Power and Purpose podcast, I'm diving deep into the world of wedding directories. I'm talking about the good, the bad, and yes, even the downright shady tactics some of these platforms use to get you to advertise. So, if you’ve ever wondered whether advertising in wedding directories is the right move for your business (or if it’s time to pull the plug on your current listing), I’m sharing candid insights and the criteria I use to decide whether wedding directories are worth it. (This episode originally aired as episode 108 and we are recasting it this month to help you think about advertising for your business in 2025 - and if directories are really worth the money. Enjoy!)
