#221: What #FamilyFirst Really Means

If you’ve ever felt guilty for spending time on your business (away from your family)… and then also felt guilty for spending time with your family (away from your business), this is the episode for you.    Today I’m diving into my motto “family first” and exploring what it really means to prioritize your family–and my take might just surprise you.    We’ll tackle things like:    Building a foundation for your business that supports you and your family.  How to decide when to invest in your business and when to invest in your family.  My stance on weekend and night photography sessions.  The advice I gave my student when she wanted to reschedule sessions to go on a last-minute family trip.  How I navigated my kid’s school-aged years as a business owner.    So if you want to learn how to put family first, business first, AND you first (yes, it’s possible) hit play and get ready to get ready to take notes!  RESOURCES: WORTH EVERY PENNY JOYCAST SHOW NOTES: https://photographybusinessinstitute.com/podcast/episode-221 SHOW TRANSCRIPT:  Click Here BOUTIQUE BREAKTHROUGH – 8-WEEK WORKSHOP www.joyofmarketing.com/boutiquebreakthrough INSTAGRAM – DM me “Conversation Starters” for some genuine ways to strike up a conversation about your photography business wherever you are. https://www.instagram.com/sarah.petty  FREE COPY: NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLING BOOK FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS www.joyofmarketing.com/freebook  FREE FACEBOOK GROUP: Join and get my free mini-class: How I earned $1,500 per client working 16 hours a week by becoming a boutique photographer. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ditchthedigitals  YOUTUBE: Check out my latest how to videos:  https://www.youtube.com/c/thejoyofmarketing  LOVE THE SHOW?
