Learning business in paradise while connecting with like-minded women.
Secure your early bird spot for the business retreat in Vietnam 2026.

What happens when a bridal makeup artist and an Air Force engineer team up? A total transformation of how wedding vendors run their businesses.

Today I have a sit down with Indi and Heraldo of Studio 85, the power couple behind the world’s #1 ranked Dubsado consultancy for the wedding industry.

Indi shares how she went from burnout in a seasonal bridal makeup business to building a systems-first empire. Heraldo brings his background in engineering to the table, revealing how their processes have helped over 130 beauty and wedding professionals reclaim their time, boost client experience, and actually enjoy their businesses again.

Inside this episode:

✨ How a seasonal business led Indy to hit her systems breaking point
✨ The unexpected lessons from Heraldo’s Air Force background
✨ Why Dubsado is more than just automation – it’s about freedom
✨ How they helped creatives save 97% of their time
✨ What COVID taught them about pivoting, e-commerce, and resilience
✨ The exact systems every wedding vendor needs to go pro behind the scenes

If you're stuck in the admin overwhelm or relying on spreadsheets to run a luxury service - this episode is your invitation to think bigger, streamline smarter, and finally step into the CEO seat.

Let’s build backend systems that are as beautiful as the work you create. 💻💄
