This is beautifully written Josh and a real "baring your soul" read. We also feel for those who are continuing to undertake the Cert IV in Marriage Celebrancy and not fully understanding how difficult it can be to build a business, and it all somehow seems wrong that those courses are still being offered.
Whilst we are lucky that our business model is working well and we love our roles as a Celebrants, if I had a crystal ball, it's likely that I wouldn't have chosen to give up my corporate job where I was earning a good wage in a secure job with the benefits of Super!
In light of this, I wonder whether there should be something the precedes the Cert IV that provides information as to how difficult it will be, rather than us all rushing in wearing our rose coloured wedding glasses.
Anyway, big thank you for normalising how many wedding vendors are feeling, and good luck!
