Summary
In this episode, photographers Kristy & Vic Arias share how they went from questioning whether they’d need full-time jobs again to completely reigniting their business and doubling their income in just six months of being in the Business Blueprint coaching program.
We talk about faith, marriage, parenting, business burnout, and how showing up authentically changed everything for them.
• Losing passion after COVID and becoming parents
• Rebuilding their business from the ground up
• The power of coaching and community
• Why authenticity attracts aligned couples
• Setting boundaries and implementing Sabbath rest
• Navigating business while raising kids
What I love most about their story is how honest and hopeful it is. If you’ve been feeling stuck, burnt out, or questioning your next step in business, this episode is for you.
