S2 Ep. 9: Taking Risks & Giving the Extra 1% | Taryn Blake of Blake Events
"Do no harm, take no s***."(Now that’s a motto I can live by!)
And it happens to be the approach our guest takes to running their business. Obsessed.
Today we welcome award-winning wedding planner, ultimate powerhouse boss-lady, and accidental badass entrepreneur Taryn Blake to the pod!
We’re talking about:
How she accidentally fell into the wedding industry and loved the freedom so much that she left her six-figure corporate job to pursue it
The obstacles she overcame (personally and professionally) that prepared her to run a successful all-female team with salaried employees and have a healthy work/life balance
Her advice for wedding vendors and cake designers on how to break into a new corner of the industry and how to best connect with planners
Her thoughts on The Engagement Gap, how to pull yourself out of a creative rut, and the future of the wedding industry
