Description

019 - The day I sat down to record this episode was a momentous one in the life of today's podcast guest. Richmond, Virginia-based Kristen Murray had just given notice that she'd be leaving her full-time job to focus on her rapidly growing pet photography business!

As Dolly Parton sings in her classic hit "9 To 5," "There's a better life, and you dream about it, don't you?" In this episode, Kristen shares how she's making her dreams a reality, and the role that the Hair of the Dog Elevate program played in her readiness to make the transition to full-time pet photographer. 

 What To Listen For: 

• Why other people weren't taking her pet photography seriously
• What finally helped Kristen recognize and overcome her fears
• Why it's okay—even beneficial—to be nervous about making changes
• How Elevate allowed her to stop asking permission, and to start trusting herself
• The crazy-fun niche that Kristen's carved out in her market

If you have your own dreams of making pet photography more than a hobby, this is a great episode to listen to. I know you're trying to avoid infectious things right now, but I promise Kristen's contagious enthusiasm will make you feel better, not worse!
