Ditching Duct Tape Systems in Favor of Connection and Peace with Erin Wissig
· 37:15
Listen to this episode
We assume established photographers have it all figured out. Erin Wissig sees something different: talented, successful photographers whose backend systems never had the chance to catch up.
I'm talking with Erin about why so many of us end up duct-taping our systems together as our businesses grow, what it actually looks like to build automations that hold while still maintaining the flexibility for humanity. We talk about why the point was never the systems themselves — it's the peace of mind and relational space they free up.
We get into the fear of robotic systems in an industry that celebrates humanity, and why your system is only as good as your willingness to trust it.
