Revel in the Recovery | BrideLux Symposium Panel with Jenn Johnson and JoAnn Gregoli
Watch below for our EPIC panel discussion on the BrideLux Revel in the Recovery Symposium where we talk about all things opening a new business in the pandemic. We were honored to speak with JoAnn Gregoli, owner of Elegant Occasions, and hear from her on her heroic work to help people during the pandemic.
TLDR; JoAnn and Jenn made the decision not to slow down during the pandemic, instead, they sped up, created new ventures, and forged new paths. JoAnn, being a communications and PR major in college, knew the importance of staying relevant and in front of people in order to stay in the game. Jenn took the risk and invested more into a company when the rest of the world was “pausing”. Both entrepreneurs are now as busy as ever (whether that be with their nonprofits, helping others who need business advice, or getting back into events) and have great hope for things to continue to turn around for the better.
The top two tips and takeaways from the discussion?
1.) Failure is not an option, you need to have a strong mindset and just keep going. “Do” more than “Think”. Just go.
2.) Take care of yourself. Do not be scared to indulge in self-care when things are tough.
We are looking forward to sharing more tips with you guys and don’t forget, we are always here to help. If you ever have any questions or are looking for a consultant just shoot us an email at contact@epicpresentations.com or DM us on Instagram @EPICPresentations
