You launched a course, a workshop, or a digital product—something you knew could help people. But instead of a thriving education business, you got burnout, inconsistent sales, and a growing sense of frustration. Now you’re wondering… Was this a mistake?

Here’s the truth: Your pivot didn’t fail. It gave you valuable feedback. In this episode, I break down why most photographers struggle when stepping into education and the key mistakes that make teaching feel draining instead of profitable. We’ll cover:

✔ The real reason your pivot didn’t work (hint: it’s not because you’re bad at teaching)
✔ The biggest mistakes photographers make when building an education business
✔ How to create an offer that’s clear, sustainable, and actually sells
✔ Why boundaries are non-negotiable for a long-term, profitable business (and how I model this inside Pivot Academy)

If you’re ready to turn things around and build an education business that works for you—without constant launches, burnout, or students demanding 24/7 access—this episode is for you.

Failure. It’s the thing most people fear, avoid, and let define them—but what if I told you that failure isn’t the opposite of success? It’s the process of success.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the truth about failure and why the most successful people in the world don’t just accept it—they embrace it. You’ll learn why failure is nothing more than data, how to reframe your mindset so it stops holding you back, and why the difference between those who succeed and those who don’t isn’t talent—it’s the ability to keep going.

We’ll also talk about the real reason you’re afraid of failure (hint: it’s not actually failure itself), the mindset shift that will make you unstoppable, and why the people making six figures as photography educators aren’t the ones with perfect strategies—but the ones who refuse to quit.

And if you’re ready to stop sitting on your ideas and start making real progress, I’ll share how Pivot Academy is your step-by-step roadmap to launching an offer that sells—plus, for a limited time, your spot includes the Pivot Retreat Experience in Dallas for even more hands-on coaching and strategy.

Because failure isn’t what’s stopping you. Staying stuck is. So let’s change that—hit play now.
