    It's me—unedited. I'm calling this my 'shower thoughts' episode. I don't have a plan or agenda; I'm just giving you a peek behind the scenes before I head to my first five-figure mastermind event in Tennessee. Please leave a review if this episode was even remotely helpful/entertaining, or leave a 1-star review if it sucked.

    Booking More, Selling Less With Margaux Fraise: Client Case Study

    Today I'm joined by Margaux Fraise of Harmony Creative Studio. (Her name might sound familiar because she's also the host of the Wedding Summit Series.)

A true gem!

I LOVE Amanda’s podcast! She gives you real advice and ways to implement it in a manner that makes logical sense. Her suggestions are backed by stats and make a ton of sense. I also love that the podcasts aren’t all super long and that I can easily listen to them on my commute. Definitely adding this to my weekly playlist! Give me more!

Seriously, take notes

Carrylove Designs did my rebrand in 2021 and I was doing myself a disservice by not listening to Amanda’s podcast sooner. It’s funny, relatable, and I implement a small change to my business with every podcast. I even sent out my very first newsletter to my growing email list after being inspired by one of the episodes. I casually listened the first time and now I’m going back to take notes. So grateful for this gal!
