E173: The 2026 Reset We Actually Need (what we’re shedding and why)
Tue Feb 03 2026
In this episode, we are tackling the question most wedding business owners are quietly asking by February: why does the business still feel heavy even when things are going well? The simple answer is that growth does not come from adding more, it comes from letting go of what is draining you. Katie and Roxy share what they are shedding in 2026, what they are keeping, and how simplifying systems can reduce stress, admin, and missed opportunities so your business feels easier to run.
This is a real, honest reset conversation for wedding suppliers who are busy, booked, and ready for things to feel calmer.
