Episode 54: Talk About Becoming an Educator

In this episode, we’re talking all about becoming an educator (also known as the one where I tell you how I became an accidental course creator). This month, we’ve been talking a lot about pivots, passive income, and multiple streams of income. And rightly so! The challenges of 2020 should encourage all of us to think of new ways to thrive. But it occurred to me that I haven’t ever told my story about how I became an educator. 

So today, I’m sharing how I went from wedding planner to educator to online course creator and podcaster. And how you can pivot in the same way, if you feel that pull. If you’ve ever thought you might like to explore teaching online—or you just want to know where the heck this gal came from—, then this is the episode for you. 

Key Takeaways for Becoming an Educator:

• Bullet Points of My Career
• My First Speaking Gig
• What’s Next?
• An Idea Worth Spreading
• Learning from Others
• You Owe It…

This Week’s Sponsor: Book More Weddings Virtual Summit

As we look at the last half of this truly bizarre year, it’s even more important to take advantage of this time to work on your business instead of in your business. And as always, we want to keep our eyes on the prize: booking more weddings. That’s why I want to tell you all about Heidi Thompson’s Book More Weddings Virtual Summit, happening September 14-18.

This summit brings presentations from 26 industry experts who have learned to attract more clients and book more weddings. You’ll learn the steps to book clients in the age of COVID-19, how to use Instagram to attract ideal clients, and so much more–like passive and diversified income taught by me! So get your free ticket at reneedalo.com/bookmoreweddings. I’ll see ya there.
