Do You Want To Quit Sometimes? Me Too.

from Unpopular Opinions with Sandra Coan | A Photography & Business Podcast · host Sandra Coan

I started my business in 1999, which means this is my 27th year doing this  as my career.  I’ve been in my studio for 20 years. I run an education company that has served thousands of photographers around the world.  I’ve written two books, spoken at countless industry events and conferences, so by all accounts I’ve had a pretty successful career as a photographer.  And yet, at least once a month, I say to my husband, or my best friend, or my assistant something to the effect of, “Maybe I should just quit and get a job at Starbucks.”In fact I said something to that effect just this morning at my team meeting.And I can’t be the only professional photographer who has moments of feeling that way. Right?Let's talk about it!SHOWNOTES: https://sandracoanstudios.com/do-you-want-to-quit-sometimes-me-too/
