Is your passion still fueling you—or draining you?
In this very first episode, I’m sharing my personal story of how I turned burnout, financial pressure, and creative fatigue into a business that finally supports me, more than I thought it could, and what I love to do.

Whether you’re a knitter, maker, Etsy or Ravelry shop owner, or blogger with big dreams and limited time, this episode is for you. I’ll take you behind the scenes of my journey from corporate stress and underpaid creative work to building a second income stream that brought peace, purpose, and freedom back into my days.

This isn’t a get-rich-quick story. It’s about building something steady, simple, sustainable and long-lasting - and aligned with your life.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, tired, or wondering if your handmade or creative business is sustainable long-term—this is your invitation to rethink what’s possible.
