I don’t want to be a “girl’s girl.”

Because what I’ve seen—inside the photography industry and outside of it—is that this idea of “support” has gotten a little twisted.

We’ve created spaces where the women around you blindly support, gas you up even if you're going down the wrong path and no one challenges each other to build.

This mentality is where everything feels encouraging on the surface… but nothing is actually changing because we keep doing the same things over and over again without someone stopping us to hold up a mirror.

That kind of environment will keep you stuck longer than anything else.

In this episode, I’m sharing a really personal story from the beginning of my career—walking into rooms where I didn’t feel like I belonged, the pressure to fit into a mold that was never mine, and how stepping away from that completely changed the trajectory of my business.

We’re talking about the difference between surface-level support and real support.

The kind that calls you out.

The kind that raises your standards.
The kind that actually moves your life forward.

And the kind of woman I’ve chosen to be… both in my business and in the rooms I build.

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t quite fit…

Or like you’re surrounded by noise but still not growing…

This episode is going to hit.
