This week’s episode of the Girl Means Business Podcast is a little different — it’s your gentle Thanksgiving reminder to pause, breathe, and give yourself permission to rest.

If you’ve been running on adrenaline through busy season, editing late at night, juggling client schedules, and somehow keeping the rest of your life afloat… this one’s for you.

In this short Thanksgiving pep talk, I’m sharing encouragement for the photographer who’s feeling tired, stretched thin, or just in need of a moment. You’ll hear:

✨ Why rest is not falling behind (and how it actually fuels your creativity).

✨ How to embrace quiet moments without guilt.

✨ A reminder that your worth isn’t tied to your productivity.

✨ How to use this break to reconnect with yourself and your “why.”

Consider this your warm hug + deep breath before the holiday weekend kicks in.

🎧 Tune in, take a breath, and let yourself slow down — even for just a few minutes.
