At some point, we must acknowledge that burnout is making its way into our lives. The key is not to stay in that space. Lori and Sylvia discuss their recent frustrations with contractors and wedding planners. They also propose refocusing their energy on more positive mindsets to help move forward. This isn’t an overnight fix but instead a daily intentional practice.
