In this episode floral designer and mum of three Afia Bayayi takes me on her fascinating journey from straight A student to teacher to business owner, with home educating three children thrown into the mix.  Afia's insight on the education system, and the responsibility of teachers is fascinating, but so is her take on how she knew she'd be an entrepreneur, and how she found the thing that would take her on that journey, by - as she puts it - simply looking at what was in her hands.  We also talk the life events that gave Afia extreme perspective and the ultimate push to start her business, how she manages her workload, some of the myths surrounding home educating, and the skills she wants to arm her children with by the time they leave school.

In today's episode of The Wedding Biz, Andy is excited to welcome John Emmanuel. John is the premier floral designer out of Sydney, Australia.

A known leader in his market, John has worked alongside many high profile Australian wedding planners in continuous collaboration with some of Sydney's most luxurious events.

Let me ask a question that most wedding pros I know can't answer: What's your exit strategy?  Here's another one:  What's your growth strategy? And let's be clear: Charging more is NOT a growth strategy. Yes, getting couples to pay higher prices is part of success. But at some point you'll hit a ceiling with how much people are willing to pay. Real growth - and most exit plans - are built on your ability to get others to do the work you're currently doing now.  It's the old adage that the first thing you should do when you get a new job is find a way to replace yourself. That's because you can't grow your career if you don't get a promotion. But how do you do that if you're the owner of the business? That's what I talk about today with Eatherley Shultz, the Owner of Floressence Flowers out of Asheville, North Carolina.  Eatherley and I started working together back in 2018 after we met on a walk along the Bow River in Banff, Canada. She'd already achieved solid success with her business, but not she wanted less.  Yes, you heard me correctly: Less. Not more. Less stress. Less chaos and confusion. Less time doing all the things her clients needed her company to do. Less turnover with her team. And so many other things. Tune into today's podcast to hear Eatherley's story, which is a triumphant one, about how she got out of her own way to let the team reach its full potential - and give her a sense of fulfillment that was more impactful than any big price tag she's put on an invoice. Because when you reach a certain level of success, it's not about how to charge more for your services. It's about how to get more from your company.

I used to find pricing my floral designs really HARD.  Even though I new the right formula to charge, and the math was super-simple, the doubt and fear would kick in and I would almost always end up under-pricing my work.

Based in Hampshire, she provides British flowers for weddings and events, plus runs courses. She's also co-written the book, 'A Guide to Floral Mechanics'. Whilst working abroad as a nanny, she started planning her UK wedding in 2013. Wishing to contribute to her big day, her Mum suggested that she did some of her wedding flowers. So, they went on a floristry course at Green & Gorgeous. Although she didn't have any plans to become a florist, the course piqued her interest in flowers and she decided to enrol on an 'Introductory to Floristry' course at Merrist Wood. She tried to get work experience in a florist shop in London, but unfortunately to no avail. On moving to Hampshire, she met Sybil, a Floristry Specialist at Hobbycraft. Their conversation led to her teaching Sarah every week for six months. Then under Sybil's guidance, Sarah started to do weddings.In April 2014, Floribunda Rose was born.  She knew that she wanted to only use British Flowers and practise sustainable floristry without floral foam. As well as selling bouquets in a local farm shop, she began to do more weddings and events. She started to run workshops, which she really enjoyed, so much so that she set up a flower school, where she teaches sustainable floral design. She discusses the background of how her book with William Mazuch, 'A Guide to Floral Mechanics', came about, the process involved and now how it's selling all over the world. And she also shares her plans for 2022.Listening to this episode, you'll hear how passionate Sarah is about sustainable floristry and British flowers.

#015 - Florist Sarah Statham from Simply by Arrangement shares her small business journey and career change from working as a criminal lawyer to entering the world of flowers. Based in Yorkshire in the North of England, she teaches others how to arrange flowers and also creates designs for weddings. For over 20 years, Sarah worked as a criminal lawyer. And every week she would buy flowers which she'd then arrange as a stress-relieving activity on a Saturday, admiring them when she got home late from work during the week. Having developed an interest in flowers, she decided to do some floristry courses. And whilst taking a career break, she started gardening and became hooked. In 2013, she took redundancy. And as she'd had training experience in her role as a lawyer, she decided to offer wreath workshops 'up North' for local ladies. Simply by Arrangement was born. And as the business has developed, the workshop side of her offering has grown, attracting florists from far and wide. As well as flowers, Sarah has also developed a passion for photography, in particular for seeking out beautiful light for capturing her floral designs, examples of which you can see on her stunning Instagram account. Listening to this episode, you'll hear how passionate Sarah is about the floristry industry and helping fellow small business owners. At the end of the podcast, you'll discover her practical tips, which I'm sure you'll find very inspiring. Show notes and more are available on the My Small Business & Me website: https://mysmallbusinessandme.com/episode15

Meet Debra Biagini, a native New Yorker now living in Rome, Italy. Debra shares her perspective on living abroad, twerking, and how taking that DNA test changed her life.

You hear a lot about the excitement of taking a business full-time. But what about the fears? You know, the leaving-a-steady-job part and telling your family that you’re leaving that job that you were so great at because your floral design business isn’t just a hobby anymore. What about that first year when you’re still working full-time as a TV news reporter and you’re also designing the flowers for 32 weddings and maintaining the 10-acre lavender farm you just moved to and your emotions are through the roof because you’re overwhelmed as hell and you also know you’re going to have to make a decision soon? Yeah, that. In this episode, we’re sitting down with Kalin Sheick to talk about all of it. Kalin is a floral designer in Northern Michigan who lives and hosts events at a small lavender farm she runs with her husband. When she's not flowering for weddings, she’s hosting a dinner party, leading a workshop and mentoring women who want to create businesses they love. In our convo today, we’re hopping in a time machine and going back a bit, though … back before the lavender farm was even a dream and she was just picking flowers out of the garden at her rental house because it was fun and she was still working as a local TV news reporter. We talk about… That gut knowing/feeling that there’s something more for you The humble beginnings of starting her floral design business Deciding to sell their house and buy a farm The fear of quitting your job to take your hobby full-time Why that fear (see above) is always worse than the actual moment of doing the scary thing The loneliness of working for yourself Setting boundaries when you live where you work and you work where you live How she’s keeping her sanity amidst the holiday crazy How she moves past failure And so much more…!
