If you’ve ever looked at your wedding planning business and thought, “I should have done this sooner…” you are absolutely not alone. In this episode of The Planner’s Edit, Desirée Adams pulls back the curtain on the decisions she wishes she had made earlier in her career that would have saved her time, energy, stress, and years of growing in circles.
Desirée walks through the foundational moves that would have accelerated her growth. She shares what each shift would have changed, how it impacts planners at every stage of business, and why these decisions matter so much more than people realize.
If you're in the thick of building your wedding planning business — or you’re realizing you’ve been trying to carry far too much alone — this episode will give you the clarity, direction, and encouragement you need to take your next steps with confidence.
