Recently at the beginning of this year I took a step outside of my comfort zone and into event planning. I wanted to share what I have learned the last two months.
Somedays you're going to question yourself.
I read something when I was beginning this journey that said something alone the lines of, write a letter to yourself about why this is your dream and why you are so motivated to achieve it, then when you are questioning why you are doing something go back to that letter and read it.
You may not get business right away.
& that's okay! To get my first event I offered my services completely for free. Spent 5+ hours putting together two balloon arches as I realized that you can get blisters from tying balloons. Was it worth it? ABSOLUTELY! From that event alone I have made a friend who not only owns her own business but was previous in event planning in Cali.
Networking makes all the difference.
Network. Network. & Network. I have gotten so much just from networking! I made an Instagram for Delicate Details and from there I found my first event as well as other connects! One connect helped me get my contract looked over by a lawyer FOR FREE! You never know how you could help someone else or how someone else could help you!
If you have been debating stepping out of your comfort zone for your dream I would love to hear about it! Share down in the comments or message me on my Instagram!
