    Ep. 34: REPLAY - Overcoming Wedding Pro Mindset Challenges with Aislinn Eileen Coaching

    Welcome back to the podcast! While Becky is traveling for a couple of Fridays during December, we're replaying a couple of our most popular episodes. This week's replay is episode #14, "Overcoming Wedding Pro Mindset Challenges with Aislinn Eileen Coaching." Aislinn was one of the earliest guests I interview on the show, and it was such a great convo! Stay tuned for an interview with yours truly coming out on her own podcast, Clarity Convos for Wedding Pros soon, too!    In this episode, Becky interviews Aislinn McKenna of Aislinn Eileen Coaching about her journey from building her luxury wedding photography business to becoming a full-time coach for wedding pros, leveraging her 14 years of industry experience. Aislinn is passionate about helping others to overcome mindset issues to grow beyond what they thought possible and to love their businesses again.  Hear about the 77 virtual coffee chats Aislinn hosted during the pandemic that ultimately lead her to pursue coaching, and the common mindset issues that wedding pros struggle with. Aislinn also shares a "pep talk" to motivate and inspire wedding pros that will leave listeners fired up!   "If you are not getting invited to the table... make your own table!" "Stop blending in with everyone else and start showing up as the 'of course' option."   Key Takeaways Having a mindset of curiosity and fearlessness can be beneficial when starting a business Starting an educational branch of a business should come from a place of service and a desire to help others, rather than as a bandaid for a broken business Identifying as both an artist and a business owner is crucial for success in the wedding industry Cutting out external noise and seeking validation from within is necessary for making confident decisions in business Believing in oneself and recognizing one's worth is essential for charging appropriately and pursuing opportunities Fear of rejection can hold one back from taking risks and pursuing growth. Embracing rejection as a learning opportunity is key! Showing up with confidence and a positive attitude has a significant impact on clients and vendor partners Aislinn offers a range of coaching programs, including the Success Accelerator Program, mastermind, and masterclass vault, to support wedding professionals at different stages of their careers.
