Want advice on having a more peaceful wedding business?

Satisfying the needs of your brides  while voicing for your own opinions is a tricky balance.

Dealing with the personalities and works styles of other wedding vendors and colleagues can get messy especially when being polite collides with business.  You want to be calm, polite and effective, but how do you do that when all heck is breaking loose?

I can help you. I teach wedding professionals like you  communication, conflict management and leadership skills so you can speak with grace, power and confidence. It’s possible to be calm and totally in control while creating the wedding your bride dreams of.

You cater to brides, but who’s helping you, Wedding Planner, Celebrant, Florist, Vendor, Caterer, Photographer?

Running your own business is incredibly fun- until it’s not.  I know over the last 18 years of my corporate consulting practice there were moments when I felt doubtful, defeated, bullied and downright scared out of my wits.

I second-guessed myself.  I over-reacted.  And, I accommodated way too much to keep clients that I knew weren’t right for me in the first place. There were so many competing opinions- clients and colleagues-  and so little advice or support around, I’d just throw up my hands and punt.  And, I’m a conflict expert!  If you’ve ever wondered, Wouldn’t just be easier to go back to working for someone else? you know exactly how I felt.

But, I couldn’t just quit my business.   I was a new divorcee with two small kids to feed so I had to make my business work better for me. So, I figured out a way to run it that made me and my clients happier.  My business blossomed.  And, so did I.  So, I’m here to share with you what I learned about:

• Grace- otherwise known as compassion and how important it is to running a business that feels caring and respectful to you, your couples and the friends and colleague you work with.
• Power- simply defined as the ‘ability to get things done’, understanding how to use your personal power so you can relax and do more with less stress
• Confidence- knowing how to handle any situation in a meaningful, thoughtful, collaborative way is absolutely a superpower you can use for good

Working together, you’ll master a communication system that allows you to talk in a way that people can hear, understand and respect.   It’s not magic. It’s all about getting to know yourself and your business and having the skills to communicate effectively, compassionately and collaboratively.  Then, you can fall back in love with your wedding business.  How?
