Diversify Income During Service-Based Work: What I'd Tell Myself as a Dancer Starting Videography

Lets talk about your pivot (coaching & consulting inquiry): https://shorturl.at/wd5Le I used to think the only way to succeed as a creative was to hustle hard and take on more client work. But after hitting burnout as a new mom, I started asking bigger questions — what would it look like to build income that didn’t rely on me constantly showing up in real-time? This video is a reflection of where I’ve been, what I’m still figuring out, and why I’m slowly pivoting from service-based work to more flexible, scalable offers like digital products. If you’re a creative entrepreneur or a mom wondering how to make space for both your business and your life, I hope this helps you feel less alone. - Rachel 🌺 ✨ For more calm & creative entrepreneurship lifestyle and productivity, subscribe and I'll see ya soon https://www.youtube.com/rachellee 00:00 Intro: Pro Dancer to Videographer to Calmer Online Business 02:48 Creative Careers Evolve 04:45 Being Good at Something Doesn’t Mean It’s Your Calling 06:36 ROI on Your Time Matters 09:42 You Don’t Have to Be Perfect — Just a Few Steps Ahead 11:17 Align Business with Your Life Values 13:02 Wrap-Up: Trust the Pivot & Start Where You Are other videos you might like: https://youtu.be/OWtVylmqyi4?si=sqFv9v4jTXq_nnuQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrAIKpqnW_M https://youtu.be/ypJnP1Uwd3o?si=uRFygVGr3mK9YUV- ---------------------------------------- what's in my camera bag: • Sony a7c - an industry raved camera for both photo/video https://amzn.to/3HQc6HJ • 28mm f/2 - my fave blurry background lens https://amzn.to/42qCOhS • Sony TX650 - pro quality, simple to use, and less than $200. chefs kiss https://amzn.to/45I71Ms • Cam B + C when running multicams https://amzn.to/3spcloB | https://amzn.to/49kp9NA • PolarPro Cam strap - love how it quickly adjusts https://amzn.to/3MmtgPu • Ronin SC gimbal - paired with my a7c https://amzn.to/45W8yg8 • Joby Gorillapod - setup for all desk space vids & traveling https://amzn.to/3L114k6 • Hollyland Lark Mini Mic (for smartphones or dslr) https://amzn.to/4dG2lKg • Moft Invisible Tripod - sleek and minimal daily carry tripod for iphonehttps://shorturl.at/CssUf fave biz + software essentials: Teachery (most unique course hosting platform) https://bit.ly/3XQqdFi Payhip (sell digital products) https://bit.ly/3XPuXet 🎶 Musicbed (licensing music for youtube + client work) https://www.musicbed.com/invite/0FkkI 👩🏻‍💻 Notion :angels singing: (free) https://affiliate.notion.so/a2dj471kyu05 🖥 Loom - all my screen recordings (free!) https://www.loom.com 💌 Flodesk :queue the most beautiful newsletters: (50% off your first year) https://flodesk.com/c/KWAWW0 💰 Honeybook - easy payment processing (free trial + 25% off first year) https://bit.ly/3tEOpbp 💸 Quickbooks - tracking the books & easy taxes (75% your first 6 months) https://refer.quickbooks.ca/s/narleefilms 🛍 Rakuten browser extension - online shopping cash back (extra 10% cash back) www.rakuten.com/r/LEERE8?eeid=28187 ---------------------------------- follow & chat at: • Instagram https://www.instagram.com/rachellee.mov • Wedding Videography https://www.narleefilms.com
