Back when I was starting my planning business in 2010, things were a lot different than today.
Community over competition wasn’t a thing. Instagram wasn’t a thing yet. TikTok obviously wasn’t around. Podcasts weren’t around. And you know what else hadn’t taken off yet? The coaching boom.
Back then, we didn’t have wedding pros telling us what they had done to grow their businesses, which was a challenge because we had to learn from failing.
But now, you have sooooo many voices to choose from, and so many different opinions on how to grow your business the right way. I’ve heard from you that it’s completely overwhelming.
So what can we do about it? And where should we be spending our time?

What is For Real: Life, Leadership, & Unlearning?
For Real is a top 1% podcast for high-achievers who look successful on paper but feel like they’re one group text away from burning it all down. Hosted by Megan Gillikin - serial entrepreneur, business coach, keynote speaker, and recovering people pleaser - this show explores burnout, boundaries, identity shifts, and the brave act of unlearning who you thought you had to be.
With unfiltered conversations, “I thought it was just me” moments, and just enough humor to keep it from feeling like group therapy, For Real is your permission slip to evolve.
Formerly Weddings for Real - and glow-ups look good on us.
