This week, I sat down with my dear friend and fellow creative, Candice Lorraine Soffner — a woman whose career can only be described as a smorgasbord of creative brilliance. From teaching first grade to designing interiors, producing large-scale events, and now leading her own company, Candice Lorraine LLC, Candice has done it all with an ease and authenticity that’s rare in our industry.
We talked about the real stuff — resilience, burnout, bravery, and the decision to choose yourself even when it feels terrifying. Our conversation moved between laughter and truth-telling — from stories of wrangling groomsmen like first graders to the lessons that come from divorce, reinvention, and rebuilding. What I love most about Candice is her honesty. She reminds us that resilience isn’t a trait you’re born with — it’s something you earn by standing back up.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever wondered if it’s time to start over, or if saying “yes” to something new might just lead you exactly where you’re meant to be.
