Getting Honest About My 2025 Goals (and Why I’m Over Perfectionism)

A Little Context…
So here's the deal: I didn't plan this livestream the way I usually do. There were tech distractions (hi Mom 👋🏼), camera chaos, and yes… a Bill Clinton cameo. Kind of. But I showed up anyway—and that's the whole point of this week's conversation.

We're talking about:

  • Letting go of perfection
  • Embracing experimentation
  • The real stuff happening behind the scenes of my destination wedding business

If you've ever second-guessed yourself, dragged your feet on a big idea, or wondered if your niche is too narrow… welcome. You're in excellent company.

Go ahead and hit play 👇🏼 then scroll for the highlights and some personal confessions I've been meaning to share.

In This Episode, You'll Hear Me Talk About…

🗂 Why I'm Obsessed with Processes

Yes, weddings are romantic, but it's the logistics that make my heart skip a beat. From consultation calls to room blocks, I've got a system for everything—and I love it.

🌴 Why I Still Focus on the Caribbean (But Maybe Shouldn't?)

I specialize in Caribbean destination weddings, but is that limiting me? I talk through the pros, cons, and possibilities beyond the beach.

✈️ Where I'm Headed Next (Spoiler: Mexico!)

I've got a wedding industry event coming up in Tulum—and while Mexico isn't usually my go-to, this trip has major networking potential.

📱 My (Very) Complicated Relationship with Instagram

I know I should be posting more. But honestly? I kinda hate it. Let's talk about finding a social strategy that actually feels like me.

💬 Why LinkedIn Might Be My New Favorite Place

Is it weird that LinkedIn feels like home? That's where many of my clients hang out—and where I don't feel pressured to post like a wedding influencer.

👰🏾‍♀️ Why a Backyard Ceremony Still Counts as a Destination Wedding

I recently officiated a home wedding, and it reminded me that non-traditional, off-the-beaten-path celebrations are very much in my lane.

📝 What I'm Committing to in 2025 (and Why I Need Accountability)

No more overthinking. No more hiding footage. No more waiting until it's “just right.” 2025 is my year to do the thing—and I hope you'll help keep me honest.
