Description

297 - What do you do when someone close to you—like a spouse, a friend, or a parent—doubt your photography business? In this powerful coaching session, we dive into what it means to seek approval, how to set emotional boundaries, and why your success doesn’t hinge on anyone else’s validation.

What to Listen For:

• Why seeking approval is such a common (and tricky) mindset trap
• How to protect your confidence when others don’t believe in your vision
• The real reason someone might criticize your pricing or business
• What to do when your spouse calls your business a “failure”
• How to stop trying to change people—and find peace instead
• Ways to approach hurtful comments without internalizing them
• Why compassion can be your superpower—even when it’s hard
• The surprising impact of letting others have their own journey
• How boundaries and encouragement can coexist
• One of the best mindset tools you’ve probably never used (and how this student’s husband is using it!)

When those closest to you don’t support your business, it stings. But you don't need their permission to succeed. Your approval is enough—and your journey is yours.
