Love in Full Bloom: How Wedding Pros Can Blossom through Self-Care and Healthy Habits

by | May 21, 2023

So you’re a seasoned wedding professional who has been working in the industry for over a decade. You are highly respected, known for your attention to detail, and your ability to work long hours without complaining. 

However, as you step into your busiest season of the year, you can feel yourself already slipping. You are working 18 hour days, with no breaks, and are surviving on little more than caffeine and sugar. Despite the tell-tale signs of burnout, you are pushing through until now, when you feel like you can’t push any further. 

You find yourself getting sick repeatedly with colds, flu, and other illnesses. You are pushing through these illnesses, taking no time off, but the impact is starting to show. Your skin has become pale and dull, your eyes feel sunken, your weight fluctuating significantly, and your brain fog and energy crashes often leaving you feeling helpless, but you are still managing to get the job done.  

Your relationships have also started to be impacted by your workaholic ways, with friends and family noting you no longer feel present in the moment or able to participate in social gatherings.

The worst part is, feeling like you simply could not handle anything else. 

You had once thrived on the challenges of the job, but now everything felt like a struggle. You are experiencing overwhelming anxiety, struggling with low mood, and simply like you have nothing left to give. 

As a wedding professional, you are unique…BUT…

your experience is not unique. 

Burnout is common in this industry, which is known for its demanding schedules, high-stress situations, and the need for perfection. 

However, it’s essential to remember that your health and wellbeing should be a top priority, and that burnout can have severe physical and mental consequences. 

It’s okay to take breaks, rest, and take care of yourself – in fact, it’s imperative. 

By prioritizing these self-care, you can ensure you’re able to show up as your best self, both personally and professionally.

The Background Story

I know what you’re thinking. What could a dietitian and a wedding pro possibly have in common? 

Well, let me tell you my story.

I was once struggling to balance a full-time workload and a full-time school workload. But eventually, I realized that the key to happiness and success is finding balance in your life. 

As I worked in the wedding industry, I found myself struggling with balancing my professional and personal life. 

I was constantly stressed, overwhelmed, and burnt out. FOMO is so real. 

But I knew that something had to change, so I decided to put my nutrition and dietitian expertise to use, and I learned how to prioritize my health and wellness while still excelling as a wedding pro.

The Truth

Let’s be real. 

People know what they need to do to live a healthy and balanced life. But it’s easy to get caught up in unhealthy habits and temptations. As wedding pros, we’re constantly surrounded by delicious food, drinks, and treats. And on top of that, we’re expected to go above and beyond for our couples, often sacrificing our own well-being in the process.

But the truth is, by neglecting our own health and wellness, we’re not doing anyone any favors. We owe it to ourselves and our clients to show up as our best selves, physically and mentally. That’s why I’m here to help you prioritize your health and wellness, create healthy habits, and find work-life balance within the chaotic wedding industry.

The Why Not

So, what sets me apart from other professionals in this field? 

Well, for one, I’m not afraid to challenge the status quo. I’m a “fat” dietitian who loves pizza, and a florist who hates flowers. But these quirks and qualities are what make me unique and relatable. 

I’m not here to tell you what to do or try to force you into a specific mold. 

I’m here to empower you to make positive changes in your life and find what works for YOU.

And that’s where the “Why Not” comes in. 

How often do we promise ourselves that we’ll make a change, only to fall back into old habits? 

Why not break the cycle and make a change that sticks? 

Why not prioritize our health and wellness for ourselves and for our clients? 

Why not live our best lives as wedding pros and human beings?

The Details

If you’re ready to prioritize your health and wellness, let’s get into the details. 

Here are just a few ways that I can help you achieve your goals:

  1. Meal Planning and Simplification: As wedding pros, we’re often on the go and don’t have time to prepare healthy meals and snacks. But with some simple planning and preparation, we can ensure that we’re fueling our bodies with the nutrients they need to thrive. I can help you create simple meal plans and snack ideas that work with your busy schedule.
  2. Self-Care and Stress Management: We all experience stress and burnout, but it’s important to know how to manage it and prioritize self-care. I can help you develop self-care routines that work for you, such as mindfulness practices, creative outlets, and physical activity.
  3. Work-Life Balance: It’s easy to feel like work takes over our entire lives, but it doesn’t have to be that way. I can help you set boundaries and create a schedule that allows for work-life balance and quality time with loved ones.

The Unique Perspective

What sets me apart as a professional is my unique perspective as both a wedding pro and a dietitian. I understand the unique challenges of working in the wedding industry, and I know how to prioritize health and wellness within that context.

But beyond that, I’m here to offer a fresh perspective and encourage you to think outside the box. Why not try something new, something that works for YOU? Why not prioritize your health and wellness, even when it feels like there’s no time? Why not live your best life as a wedding pro and a human being?

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day, it’s all about finding balance and making positive changes that stick. 

As an ex-wedding pro and a dietitian, I’m here to help you do just that. 

So, why not prioritize your health and wellness, and live your best life as a wedding pro, once and for all?
