As entrepreneurs it's easy for life to become Eat. Sleep. Breathe. your business. We wake up to the sounds of “you've got mail” (not in the romantic Meg Ryan/Tom Hanks) kind of way but more in the Dolly Parton working 9-5 kind of way. Without even realizing it, our identities become wrapped up in the work we do, leaving no room for identity (or hobbies) outside of work! In today's interview, Hope opens up about what it's like to literally grow up with her business. Starting her photography career as a 16 year high school student, it's taken years for her to learn how to create healthy boundaries for work and life.As I'm sure most of us can attest: working is a habit that can be hard to break. And while “work” isn't to be vilified, not being able to turn off work is a fast pass to burnout. I am so grateful for the insights Hope shared in today's conversation about protecting her mental wellness and practical ways she promotes healthy work/life balance. WILDFLOWER SHOWNOTES : shannaskidmore.com/hope-taylor

If you’re the kind of person who struggles with the legal side of your business, and you keep pushing contracts aside thinking they’re unimportant or you’ll get one later… please don’t go anywhere. On the show today we’re welcoming Paige Griffith for the second time! Whoop! She’s been on the show once before on episode 23, and we had her back today to do a deep dive on all things contracts, especially contracts for photographers.  A little bit about Paige, she’s the founder of The Legal Paige, a virtual law firm working with online businesses and wedding industry professionals. She is a certified Juris Doctor barred in the state of Montana and holds a double B.A. in Economics and Political Science. Within The Legal Paige, she helps her clients and online community run legal and protected businesses and counsels them on issues related to contracts, intellectual property, privacy, and business law.

Her mission is to create an online space where the law isn’t so scary and entrepreneurs can get legally legit in no time. In this episode, Paige answers some big questions like “why are contracts so important? What’s the big deal?” “Do I need a contract at the very beginning of my business?” “What about if I’m just doing business or providing a service for a close family or best friend? Are contracts necessary there?” She also answers where she recommends getting a contract if you don’t have one at all. It’s a really good juicy episode. Paige breaks down all things contract-related and legal jargon SO freaking well.     Show notes: http://theheartuniversity.com/096-intimidated-…r-paige-griffith/ HoneyBook: share.honeybook.com/heart   In addition to a FREE 7 day trial, get 50% off your first year of HoneyBook, a $200 value!!    www.theheartuniversity.com/contracts   In addition, use "HEARTU" for 10% off for contracts.    If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here.   Freebie Clause Checklist: bit.ly/freeclausechecklist   www.thelegalpaige.com/   Follow along: www.instagram.com/thelegalpaige www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Building a successful business takes time, dedication, and drive. Building a successful business while still in high school? That takes grit and determination as well. Hope Taylor was able to do it and she is sharing her story and how she managed a successful relocation to build her business bigger than ever.    Hope started her photography business as a junior in high school, but senior year it really started to take off. She was doing senior portraits for her peers and realized that she loved it. After convincing her parents that this was the path she wanted to take, she registered her business and things really took off.   She has since moved into wedding photography and has built a successful course to help other photographers start their business off right. It hasn’t been easy, but it has been one hundred percent worth it.    In 2019 she moved from her hometown of Fredericksburg, VA to Charleston, SC and essentially had to start from scratch. She was able to do it by strategically using social media and dialing in her marketing strategies.    Listen as Hope shares more about her journey, all of her transitions, and what it has taken to pursue a full-time business right out of high school. She’s been doing this for years now and has so much to say on what it takes to build a business right now. You won’t want to miss this!   In This Episode: [01:34] Welcome to the show, Hope!

Repetition is a theme throughout the psalms. The praises of God ring out like the delay on a guitar pedal, day after day, psalm after psalm. Keep This On Repeat is a look into the Bible's playlist, where we find a rhythm in prayer, worship, and hope. More than that, we'll see how Jesus exemplifies how to do all three and how Jesus embodies the answer to our prayers, the object of our worship, and the source of our hope.

Hope Taylor is a senior and wedding photographer based out of Fredericksburg, VA and loves to help educate other photographers when she’s not off shooting.

But she is pulling back the curtain, sharing it all with us and sharing with us the journey of building a successful business! She is a photographer and educator in the creative industry, she speaks at events and major conferences, but more importantly, she hosts her own workshops as a big part of her business.

Is the Holy Spirit restoring the church today? Something closer to what Jesus really meant when he said, “I will build my Ekklesia” … a Kingdom community of Christ-followers who bring heaven’s culture into all spaces and places? If the Church is vital to the Big Story that God is pursuing -- as vital as the New Testament claims -- then we really can’t afford to get this wrong. ----more---- This is part 2 of my provocative conversation with Hope Taylor, an influencer in a movement today that is seeing the church restored to the concept of Ekklesia that Jesus taught.

It's stunning what Jesus said: "I will build my EKKLESIA." It was a secular Greek concept and word. The Romans adopted it as well. The meaning is a called-out assembly of citizens who gather. Their objective was to bring the rule and culture of the emperor to a new area. Is Jesus looking for his church to colonize the earth with his world ... the Kingdom of God? If so, this is much bigger than attending church. ----more---- See show notes page for this episode on JesusSmart.com   JESUS SMART: THE PODCAST Click to receive the Jesus Smart eLetter and keep current with podcast episode releases We’re resolved that Jesus Christ is the most brilliant person to walk the planet!

On today's episode, I chat with Hope Taylor about how she went full-time in her photography business at age 18, why workshops and conferences are so important and how to decide which one's to go to, and how she makes her business work. She also gives us some great tips for social media and how to make it easier for your business. It was so fun to chat with our first photographer on the show!   About Hope:A few years ago, if you had told me I’d have the opportunity to be a full-time photographer and business owner, I would have laughed. Because, you see, a few years ago I was just a high school student with a part-time job at a retail store. My life was a constant race between stocking shelves, studying for AP classes, getting to cheer practices, rushing through the halls and applying for universities. The thought of being an entrepreneur seemed daunting and far off, if not impossible. But, God laid on my heart that maybe something should be different. Maybe the college I committed to attending wasn’t where I was supposed to be. Maybe, just maybe, the way I pictured my life was not what He had mapped out for me. So, one morning, I made a big decision: I was revoking my admission to a 4-year business university and pursuing this crazy, seemingly unattainable dream full time. And I was going to chase after those dreams like a freight train. I feel so thankful every day to have the opportunity to do what I love through serving and loving my clients. And while photography is something that I love and adore - creating lasting relationships with my clients is where my heart will always lie. And, in my journey to pursue my purpose and build a business rooted in love, I’ve found an even deeper passion for educating and equipping other photographers to do the same.

When she realized that she could stand her ground, it was enough to get her to where she is today.

The Gear Bag Favorite Camera Body: Canon 5d Mark III Favorite Lens: Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Favorite Camera Bag: Kelly Moore Backpack Favorite Accessory: Black Rapid Crossbody Camera Strap Two Biggest Challenges of Starting a Business at 16: 1. Having to overcome the criticism of pursuing a non-traditional career at a young age. 2. Earning the trust of your clients when you’re so young, but also knowing your place in the industry. Two Biggest Rewards: 1. Dealing with the criticism at such a young age prepared her for the backlash she gets today from having a larger following on social media. If it weren’t for that, she wouldn’t have developed a thick skin to brush off some of the hateful comments she does receive. 2. She had the ability to travel and grow her business in place of her college education. She views the conferences and workshops she attended as her education, yet she was able to pay for the investment in a way she wouldn’t have been able to if she had gone to college. Three Mistakes New Photographers are Making: 1. Some photographers are only sharing their work and not including themselves in their brand. This disconnects potential clients from photographers. 2. Some photographers aren’t setting intentional work hours. 3. If you’re not streamlining your business and creating processes will create chaos and stress. What New Photographers Should be Doing: Brainstorm 3-5 connection points that have to do with your personality, not your business. Incorporate those into your marketing to add value to you as an individual, but also attract clients that can connect to those interests.
