What is AI?
Okay my friend you are hitting me on all levels. And you KNOW I cry when you cry. It's so true. I have some quotes hanging on my board, one includes part of a phrase that says "if you're afraid to fail, you actually become afraid to try" and I hear you! Thanks for always being so real and so helpful!
Oh I love that quote so much better!!
So true! Thanks I really needed to hear this message today! 😊
I’m so glad it was helpful!! ❤️ Thanks for watching!!
SO very helpful. I just love these videos. Thanks a lot for the great tips and advice.
I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed this series!
This was excellent! It’s so easy to get thrown off course when you don’t have your motivations to keep you on track. Mine are a sense of accomplishment, independence, and helping with my daughter’s college expenses.
I love that you know your core motivators! Thank you for sharing!
😊 Awesome video. Good job. I'm very generous. Have a wonderful and blessed day! I just love watching these videos. Thanks a lot for all the good tips! These videos have helped me a lot!
I LOVE that you are generous too! Some people think I’m crazy for it 🤪. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Melodee! These videos have been so helpful, informative, and encouraging. I appreciate it so much. This mindset one is so good! I definitely took some challenges as failures, especially after so many challenges got in the way. I am looking into how I can grow (again) and say I can do it!
I am so glad you are enjoying the series!!
I feel like I could be the poster child for so many of these lessons! Thank you for the encouragement and practical tips and speaking the hard truth that needs to be heard!
Thank you Rhadonda! I’m so glad that you are enjoying this series!
Great advice!
Glad you found it helpful!
One of my favorite parts of the pretty focused course is the loving community! It is full of people who are there to cheer you on and help you out. I have made the best friends with the students and coaches since I took the course four years ago!
Yes!!! I’ve met some of my most favorite people in the world!
🤚🔙
I need to watch this one every day to remind myself!
It’s easy to get stuck in the grind!
I want to join the course, but can't afford the courses. 😢
Start with our camera foundations! prettyfocused.com/foundations
So u want me to just eat pig buthole with gravy
I mean, if you get a serve me, pork rectum, I better have some freaking gravy on there
You could probably find them at a local butcher. If they dont have it you could ask them if they know anywhere you could get it.
Thanks for the tip 👍🏻
You are an incredible Leader and business owner! I love everything you are doing at Pretty Focused and your passion behind the success of student and grads!
❤️❤️❤️❤️ you are the best
Serving others well is a great way to base your business. Thanks for sharing this important element.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 thanks for tuning in! Glad you found it helpful!
Your CPA should come do a webinar with you for general startup talk. That would be amazing.
We've had him come talk to the Grad Circle!
Learned the value of email lists when Etsy shut down my shop randomly. Never wanted to reopen it, but had my client list to move forward on my own. Get those emails people!
Dang! That's crazy! So glad you had that list!
It took me years to learn to say no to stuff without feeling guilty. Still working on it every day.
I think it's an ongoing process for everyone!
I love this. I'm learning saying no sometimes makes those things you said yes to even more special!
So true!
Such wise counsel!
<3
What's a schedule??😅😅
It's something crazy people use
I didn't start in auto... because I'm old😅😅 I got my 1st SLR (35MM) for my hs photography class. I don't think I had that & if I did, it wasn't very good.
Okay, that's so cool!
You don't know how much I needed to be reminded of this! Pulling out my notebook again
You've got this! You're wonder woman!
Well clearly I wish I had heard this advice years ago as now I'm drowning in stuff
It's so easy to do!
But you're doing such a great job getting rid of some of it! I still say you can open up a shop!
So good for everyone to hear early in their career!
YES. And sometimes I need to be reminded even now.
I love this so much!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Soooo good Melodee
This is SUCH great advice!
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 It’s a good lesson to learn!
Loving these Melody❤
I’m sooooo glad!!!

Take advantage of summer rummage sale season to look for tableware, and any small appliances you may need. Save a ton that way and it’s fun. Never know what you’ll find
Great advice!

This is great, thank you. I now have a better understanding of when to use the different lenses. Macro lens adapter. And when shooting on an 18 to 55mm. Shoot at 28 to 30mm. This session, and the one before are super helpful I hope to see more. Thanks again.
Oh I’m so glad it was helpful! More will be coming!

How’d you setbup the phone and camera, so we could see everything? I arrange flowers and botanical elements for photos and would love to know how it’s set up. Thank you.
I have one camera set up that is connecting to my computer. This is my primary camera. Then I have a phone mounted overhead so you can see what I’m doing. I use Streamyard to stream and manage the cameras and layout.
