    • How maternity leave really went
    • The lessons I learned from trying to execute 2 big launches in less than a month
    • The 6 new job titles I’m adding to my team
    • The area of my business I’m managing for the first time in years,
    • How I’m prioritizing health and friendships during a particularly busy season of life

    If I can ask anything from you, it’d be to go give it a listen and write a review with your feedback. As I bring the podcast back to life, I’d love to know what resonated with you + what you’d like to learn about in the upcoming episodes.

  • 165: Planning For The Future: Securing Your Business Legacy
    Dec 19 2023

    As a forward-thinking entrepreneur, it's only natural to think about and somewhat start planning for the future of your business.


    We plan out where we see ourselves in 3, 5, and even 10 years from now. If we are thinking of starting a family, a major life event, or a move… We often start planning ahead so we can find the help we will need to keep our business running smoothly, what personal to-do’s we can assign to someone else, and more.

    Now, as dark as this sounds, we also need to plan on if something unfortunate happens to us and we are not here to run our business. This is beyond the temporary situations of getting sick, a small injury, or personal emergency. I am talking about answering the question, “What happens to my business if I die?".


    In episode 165 of The Legal Paige Podcast, I share why it is so critical to plan on who inherits our business’s management, how our clients and current contracts will be handled, who has access to bank accounts and online platforms, and various ways to protect ourselves and our business from such an unimaginable (but definitely possible) situation.

  • 164: Should Wedding Planners Actually Sign Contracts For Their Clients?
    Nov 14 2023

    Today's episode is focused squarely on the world of wedding planners and vendors. Specifically why, in most cases, legally speaking planners might want to hit the brakes on signing those vendor contracts on behalf of their clients.


    Yep, you guessed it—there are some serious legal angles to consider! Legal liability and risk management being the key one.


    Ever had clients raising eyebrows over a certain clause? We've got you covered.
    Curious about who should be adding their John Hancock to that model release? (Think here both parents in a family photo shoot or only one?!)


    In episode 164 of The Legal Paige Podcast, we share why strongly advise against ever signing on your client's behalf. The lines of who the client is and who is liable to the vendors if the worst happens (think cancellation or rescheduling, or a natural disaster, or someone gets injured or hurt) becomes blurry. You do not want to be stuck in a situation where you are fighting with your clients AND event vendors on who is liable if/when the worst happens. In legal terms, this is called ‘joint and several liability’ and we are trying to help you avoid being on the hook for those sticky situations.
