In this episode of Mind Your Wedding Business , Kevin sits down with seasoned wedding planner Tabitha Roberts of Roberts &amp; Co. Events for an honest conversation about comparison, burnout, and protecting your creativity in an industry that never stops moving. After 16 years in the DC market, Tabitha has seen how quickly social media can turn inspiration into insecurity—and how essential it is to find balance before burnout sets in. Together, they explore how comparison shows up at every stage of a creative career, why awards and reviews can create misleading narratives, and what happens when we tie our worth to what others are doing. Tabitha shares the boundaries, habits, and mindset shifts that have helped her protect her mental health, including avoiding post-event scrolling, setting social media limits, leaning on trusted peers, and seeking inspiration outside the wedding world. She also emphasizes the value of celebrating wins—big or small—and cultivating authentic relationships that create real community in a digital-heavy industry. Highlights: Why balance matters for mental health and creativity How comparison contributes to burnout at every career stage The impact of social media on confidence and self-worth Awards, accolades, and the narratives they create Why reviews shouldn’t define your business Self-care practices that help ease creative burnout The importance of celebrating wins with your team How authentic relationships foster support and stability Setting boundaries with social media to protect your energy Why true inspiration comes from beyond the wedding industry Connect with Tabitha: Website Instagram Facebook TikTok LinkedIn Connect with Kevin: Wedding IQ Fantasy S…","meta_description":"What would your work look like if you stopped measuring it against everyone else’s?
