Description
Photography education that aren't the same old interviews. We chat life, running a business, serving our clients, and most of all being a good human. I want you to have the life you've dreamed of and there's usually some gold down the tangents we explore. John Mansfield hosts the podcast as it's recorded LIVE so you can join the conversation too.

2026/10/06
Lynsey Weatherspoon is an award winning photographer, portraitist and director based in Atlanta and Birmingham. Using both photography and filmmaking as tools to tell stories, she uses connection between herself and those in front of her camera to allow more of those stories to be told in a single frame.
Today she's sharing how we can make those connections and be a welcoming place where those in front of our camera feel comfortable to be seen.

Maria-Katarina: AI Search and why your links matter more than ever | ep291
2026/09/15
We're in the age of AI, from our chat bots, to our egg timers, to our search engines. And your potential clients are searching for you through AI search engines.
AI search is very different than traditional search engines and today my guest is telling us all about how to show up better in those searches, while still creating a stronger and more trustworthy website.
Maria-Katarina Johannesson helps brands show up and be seen (and trusted!) With 10+ years of experience in sales, she has an eye for both the business side and the human side of things. She believes that people don't choose the "best" brand, they choose the brand that feels the most aligned with them"

Diagnose Before You Prescribe | ep290
2026/08/25
When we prescribe a collection for our clients without even diagnosing their needs, it's no wonder that we're seeing more and more ghosting lately.
Today I'm diving into how you can take that time to diagnose and really make your clients feel seen in the early stages of a new lead.
