On the She Calls Her Shots podcast, we're all about building a business that feels sustainable and that create ease, happiness and gratitude in all areas of your life. And in today’s episode we’re diving into something that is SO important – and not talked about enough in our industry.
The duality of being a business owner who’s not only trying to grow a thriving business, but also doing her best to create life-giving, love-filled relationships with those around her. The sometimes impossible balancing act of trying to keep both aspects of our lives thriving at the same time – and how often times, it feels like we’re bouncing back and forth, having to choose between focusing on our business OR our relationships. Feeling like when one aspect is thriving, the other is suffering -- and I'm here to share today, it doesn't have to be this way.This episode is sure to hit you on a deeper level because I'm sharing the REAL HONEST TRUTH of what it REALLY takes to be a business owner (that also cares deeply about her relationships and people she's closest to).

Summary:
If you’re anything like the photographers in my community, you’re probably feeling tired of comparing your level of success to other photographers in your market.
So many of my current clients have mentioned that they have been feeling like they aren’t “measuring up” to where they want to be in their business. And it’s left them feeling defeated and a little bit frustrated.
They’ve been hyper focused on hitting certain income goals and they’re feeling really burned out from it. And so one thing we’ve been focusing on is helping them create a new definition of success so they can take BIG action that actually creates more income and results.
We're opening up this conversation so that you can start feeling more confident and allow you to create goals that actually mean something to you and make a bigger impact inside your business.
My goal for you leaving this episode is to have a plan that will allow you to spend your entire summer celebrating the heck out of your business because you have complete clarity around what success looks like for you – and you’re making moves and feeling the momentum that is going to get you there.

Summary:
In today’s episode I’m answering a question that came up recently in a conversation with another photographer – how should I be paying myself as a business owner? For most of us, we struggle because our income always fluctuates – sometimes we get small deposits, some months we don’t book anything, and other months we get paid big final deposits – how can we create consistent income and pay ourselves when our income seems all over the place? In today’s episode, I’m going to share a strategy for you to not only pay yourself consistently, but also plan ahead for savings for taxes and other expenses.At the end of the episode you’ll feel more empowered with your money and feel like you have a plan for the next time you have money coming in.

Summary:
For many photographers, they absolutely hate the idea of having to sell themselves to potential clients. They either get nervous and in their head, trying to make sure they say the right things – or they are so worried that they’ll come across as pushy that they take a really laid back approach.
In either case, it’s often true that they aren’t booking as many clients as they’d like. And I’m here to share, there is a better and more proven way to BOTH make selling feel like an organic and natural part of your business – and ALSO empowers your clients to know, in that moment, that you are the person they have been searching for.If you’ve asked yourself questions like:
What should I be saying to potential clients on discovery calls to get them to book with me?How can I say the right things to potential clients so that I stand out from the rest of the photographers in my market?How can I sell myself more naturally so that clients book with me?How can I stand out from other photographers by having great sales calls?… this episode is for YOU!

When you hear the words client experience and automation – what comes to mind?

The #1 question I get from clients when it comes to their SEO strategy is -- where do I start?!?
And I get it, SEO can feel really overwhelming. When it comes to SEO trainings I’ve seen and listened to, it usually goes something like this -- they give you a ton of information and tasks to complete in order to optimize your SEO -- and you leave the training feeling more stuck and lost than you did before you watched the training. Where do you even start?!
In today's episode, I’m here to help you answer this simple question – Krista, what is ONE thing I can do today that will help me with my SEO?

What would it feel like to truly love, accept and embrace yourself for all that you are? In honor of Valentine's Day, I'm revisiting this incredible podcast interview that I did with life coach Dara Poznar, all about self-love and self-care. As Dara shares her story of personal evolution and the roadmap that led her to life coaching, we're reminded that self-love isn't just a concept—it's a living, breathing practice that underpins every aspect of our lives.
Our conversation navigates the subtle yet powerful distinction between self-love and self-care. Self-care is the art of attentively tending to our needs through intentional action; it is the external expression of the respect we hold for our bodies and minds. But at the heart of it all is self-love, an unyielding acceptance and connection with our innermost selves. It's about peeling back the layers to reveal a deep-seated self-acceptance that transcends superficial labels and empowers us to thrive in both personal well-being and business success.
As we explore strategies to deepen this connection with ourselves, remember this isn't a one-size-fits-all path. Whether it’s through movement and mindfulness, or embracing the stillness of nature to become more present, Dara and I discuss practical ways to cultivate self-awareness and self-care. We also delve into the CARE acronym—Curiosity, Attention, Responsibility, and Encouragement—as a compass guiding us toward authentic self-love. This episode promises to ignite a transformative energy within you, fostering a life that not only flourishes in its own right but also enriches the lives of those around us. So, tune in, and let's celebrate the depth of self-love and the empowering beauty of self-care together.

As a business owner, it's crucial that we learn to ebb and flow with the waves of our life & business. We can't separate the two (no matter how hard we might try). Our personal life has a way of affecting how we show up in our business, so the more that we can know and understand ourselves, the better! And the Enneagram is BY FAR my most favorite tool to keep myself in check with both aspects of my life.
Over the last few years I've been diving into the Enneagram and while doing so, I've seen drastic shifts in how I show up -- both in my personal life and in my business. In today's episode, I'm sharing how my business and life look drastically different now (since learning more about my Enneagram type).
You don't need to have any specific Enneagram knowledge to get tips and nuggets of wisdom from today's episode -- I'm candidly sharing the ways I've learned to create more ease and flow in my life and business while ALSO loving and accepting myself fully. These are honestly some of the BIGGEST shifts I've made over the last couple of years (and they've paid off more than I can express -- both mentally/emotionally and monetarily).
I'm so excited for you to dive in with me! 🎧
P.S I'd love to hear what Enneagram type you are! Screenshot this episode and tag me on IG with your Enneagram number 🎉Loved the episode? Have a topic or guest host request? Send me a text message!
