I used to be so self-critical. It took me almost 3

I used to be so self-critical.
It took me almost 30 years to understand that nothing was actually “wrong” with me.
I was just trying to shrink myself into versions people found easier to accept.

Too quiet.
Too opinionated.
Too much.
Not enough.
Too adventurous.
Too tame.
Too high of expectations.
Too different.

I’ve been all of it.
And for the first time in my life… I’m finally learning to love every part of me.
Still working on it, but I’m growing.

If you’re in this season too, you’re not alone.
We’re healing together @itsjenniferreza

This changed the way I look at my fear of failure:

This changed the way I look at my fear of failure:
Success isn’t about how smart, talented, kind, or confident you are.
It’s about your PERSISTENCE.

Persistence is the ability to keep taking action even when you’re scared, uncertain, or facing setbacks.

And every successful person you admire has one thing in common:
They’ve failed more times than most people have even tried.

Fear only does two things:
1. It keeps you from starting.
2. It makes you quit too early.

Fear whispers:
“What if I look dumb?”
“What if I’m not good enough?”
“What will people think?”
“What if it doesn’t work?”

And honestly?
All women feel this too.

“What if I do it wrong?”
“What if I miss something?”
“What if they judge me?”
“What if I choose wrong?”

But here’s the truth
failure doesn’t stop you. Avoiding failure does.

Whether you’re building your dream life or planning your wedding, the secret is the same:

Success goes to the person who is willing to be “bad” longer than everyone else.

If you can tolerate:
• being a beginner
• not having all the answers yet
• making mistakes
• asking questions
• starting over
• trying again

…you become unstoppable.

Because once fear stops controlling you, everything in your life opens up, from the goals you chase to the wedding you plan.

So here we are… learning, growing, becoming unstoppable. Join me @itsjenniferreza ✨

If you’re feeling lost… unsure where to start… or terrified of making the “wrong” move in wedding planning, breathe.

You’re not behind. You’re just missing the order.
If you’re planning right now, follow @itsjenniferreza and comment “Checklist” and I’ll DM you the free Starter Kit that keeps you calm, clear, and organized.

Because most brides don’t struggle because they’re unprepared…

they struggle because no one ever taught them the correct sequence of planning.

Here’s the truth most people skip:

1. Going from “I don’t know where to start” to having a real game plan. Most brides start by Googling, Pinteresting, or asking random friends, but none of that gives you structure. A real plan begins with clarity: your vision, your priorities, and your non-negotiables.

2. Avoiding the biggest rookie mistake: booking the venue first. Everyone thinks the venue is step one but that’s the fastest way to blow your budget or end up with the wrong space. Your venue depends on two things: your guest count and your budget.

3. Knowing how to sort and prioritize your guest list
Your guest list affects everything: your venue, your catering cost, your rentals, your floral minimums, your budget all of it.

4. Setting a real budget and tracking every dollar. Most brides “hope” to stay under a certain number… but hope isn’t a strategy.

You need a detailed, line-by-line spreadsheet breaking down:
✔ estimated costs
✔ actual costs
✔ deposits
✔ due dates
✔ remaining balances
✔ vendor totals

This gives you control, confidence, and zero surprises.

These four steps shift you from overwhelmed → organized.
Lost → confident.
Confused → calm.

If you want the system, the order, and the tools to make planning simple, follow @itsjenniferreza and comment “Checklist” and I’ll send you the free Starter Kit, your roadmap to planning with clarity and confidence.
