You're Not Too Creative to Niche, You're Too Scared | Ep 41

If your website has 57 different inquiry pages, your calendar is full but your bank account isn't, and you've nearly started a retail shop, a wreath business, a ceramics side hustle and a workshop series all in the same year, this episode is going to make you a little bit uncomfortable. Good. Because here's what I actually think is going on. The multi-passionate, jack-of-all-trades, chaotic creative identity that you're holding onto so tightly? A lot of the time it's not a personality trait. It's a very convincing way to avoid the boring, uncomfortable, unglamorous work that would actually grow the business you already have. And I know this because I lived it for an embarrassingly long time. In this episode I'm getting into all of it, what my business looked like before I niched down (busy, chaotic, not profitable, website was a disaster), the moment I finally went all in on weddings and started saying no to literally everything else, and what happened when I did. I went from 80 weddings a year to 20 and made more money. I stopped working summers. I started showing up to my friends' birthday parties. I went to the US for a month. I started a flower market out of my warehouse just because I wanted to. I booked a $30–40K wedding with no quote, no call, no back and forth, just a deposit.   If your business feels stuck and you keep watching other florists fly ahead, it's not because they're more talented than you. It's because they sat down and did the unsexy work. This episode is your invitation to do the same.
