Nov 16

Ever met someone who went from working for FEMA to being a full-time musician? What about a hospital grief counselor to a photographer and life coach? Yeah, us either… until this episode!

We sat down with the hilarious and entrepreneurial powerhouse, Dan and Katie Snyder. Dan is a songwriter, producer, and keyboard player who has supported multiple artists and toured with bands of his own. Katie is a life coach, photographer, and podcaster. They’ve played significant supporting roles in each other’s creative pursuits over the years. Dan has assisted Katie with capturing and editing photos, and Katie has tour managed for one of Dan’s bands.

Their career stories are fascinating and motivating as they discuss the life-altering moments and decisions that led them to where they are now.

We chatted about how they make creative and business decisions together, why it’s important to do the things we’re afraid of, why hiring more skilled people helps your business grow, balancing multiple creative passions, and how to not care so much about other people’s opinions.

Dan and Katie are inspiring, encouraging, and so genuine in how they communicate their wins and losses. We appreciated their honesty on how working together affects your marriage and the ways they’ve balanced career and relationship.
