In this episode, Kari kicks her boots off with North Carolina-based photographer Meagan Forbes to dig into the layered, behind-the-scenes reality of building a sustainable photo business. They talk burnout and boundaries, trusting your gut when pricing your work, how their brands grow alongside them, and why the pressure to niche down can feel more like a trap than a strategy. There’s honest talk about the highs, the lows, and how film photography can bring you back to the heart of storytelling.
Whether you're in a pivot season, feeling spread thin, or just craving permission to do things your own way—this one’s for you.
