Welcome to episode 11 of Season 2 of the Sugar Plum Bakes Wedding Business Podcast, this is the penultimate episode of the season! And on this episode, my guest is the powerhouse that is the fabulous Faye Cornhill. If you are in the UK wedding industry, you will probably know of her already as she is such a well known figure and inspiration to the wedding creative community. But for those who aren’t familiar with her, Faye is a wedding photographer, a business coach, she is the founder of the Wedding Business Club and the author of ‘I Do’. This podcast episode was recorded earlier on in 2022 and on the recording Faye mentions an upcoming exciting project, which happens to be her charity: Lives in Focus which she co-founded with her husband and launched this year.
Faye started The Wedding Business Club a few years ago to offer an educational hub and a community, where like-minded wedding creatives could come together to support each other and learn from each other. During 2020 when the UK went through many lockdowns and spells of isolation, the Wedding Business Club was an invaluable virtual space to find comfort and advice. Faye herself was a huge support and a voice of reason and she recommended strategies that people could focus on to help keep their businesses strong and ride out the storm. Following on from those unprecedented times, The Club continues to grow in numbers and Faye continues to develop her offering to help support people new to business as well as those who are established. And she continues to inspire through how she lives her own life!
So yes, as you can tell from this introduction, Faye is very much a go-getter. She’s energetic, courageous, an unstoppable force and a much trusted and valued individual within the wedding industry. During the episode, Faye shares her knowledge and experience of running a wedding photography business and we talk about some of her strategies that she uses to keep her businesses organised and productive. We also talk about dealing with comparisonitis, imposter syndrome, how to work on your mindset to become stronger and believe in yourself, as well as facing your fears so that you can do the things that scare you. It's a jam-packed episode which I very much hope is of value to you.
I’m so grateful to Faye for coming on the podcast, I know her time is precious and it means a lot that she gave up her time to to chat with me and generously share advice and talk openly about her experiences. If you would like to connect with Faye, you can find her on her website https://www.fayecornhillcoaching.co.uk/ and if you’re not following her already on Instagram, you can find her on @fayecornhill and do take a look at her charity too: Lives in Focus As always, if you’d like to get in touch with me, my DM’s are always open on Instagram and if you have time, I’d be so grateful if you could rate and review the show.
