Nicole + No Regrets: Capturing a dream + priceless memories

Nicole + No Regrets: "Capturing a dream + priceless memories." How Nicole Smith found her way from university to a passion for travel, navigated a full-time corporate job while raising two boys as a single mom. She nurtured a side hustle that would turn into Flytographer, a  photography business for travelers that connects you with more than 500+ hand-picked local photographers in over 350 destinations around the globe to capture priceless memories of our adventures together.In this episode you will learn: How Nicole's  idea for Flytographer was inspired by a trip to Paris in 2011 with her best friend when they tried to get one good photo that captured their adventure together and  showcased the beauty of the city.How her passion for wanderlust started, spending time in Mexico and Korea, and other countries after she graduated college.The important questions she asked herself as she reached a point of burnout juggling it all and when she decided to dedicate herself full time to building Flytographer.Why she felt so strongly about the business opportunity for Flytographer that she took the leap to leave her stable corporate job and even sold her car to keep the business growing.We talk about the myth of "work-life balance" and instead approach our career paths as working moms in "seasons" of moments, and why self-care is again a critical part of the journey.What the 10 year anniversary of Flytographer this year means to her as she reflects back on all she has learned along the way and why capturing photos and working with photographers around the world has taught her about love, joy, hope, and that we all have a lot more in common than divides us.Learn more about Flytographer and book a photo shoot.Follow @flytographer on Instagram 📖 Get the book: All Who Wander: A Guide to Finding Your Path in Seasons of Change🎤 Book Anne to speak at your next event: annetaylorhartzell.com/speaking💌 Subscribe to the Choose Adventure newsletter and join a community of others choosing adventure.Connect with Anne:Website: annetaylorhartzell.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/annetaylorhartzellInstagram: @annetaylorhartzell
