It’s been said that fear of failure is fear of growth. It can be pretty painful when things don’t go as planned, but when I failed at shooting one of my very first events without charging my batteries for my flash, it taught me to NEVER shoot another event or session without charging batteries and to ALWAYS carry extra batteries in my bag.

Learning that lesson totally sucked. Big time, but I wouldn’t trade that wisdom for the world.

What’s the most important lesson you’ve learned by failing at something? I’d love if you left your insight in a comment below so we can all learn together!

This is what being married for 17 yrs looks like.

Happy anniversary to us.

We are very informal, we don’t like a fuss, and we are okay with the simple things.
🖤
Staying home and ordering pizza versus going to a fancy restaurant is our style.
🖤
We’ve always enjoyed functional time-i.e grocery shopping, and we just found out we are both enneagram 2.
🖤
We couldn’t be more the same, but we are also so different.
🖤
I’m the balloon floating off into space, getting distracted by life and he’s the string that stays grounded and real.

Together, we compliment each other well.

Working from home is certainly preferred, but every once in awhile I go on a run to listen to podcasts or audibles to better myself and my business. I just finished up “The Alter Ego Effect” by @todd_herman. Totally recommend.
Sometimes the change of scenery is all I need to get my creative juices flowing.
