We want to preface this entire episode with this: we want to see you succeed. Whatever dreams have been placed on your heart, we want you to go after them— and in the process, we want you to value yourself and the most precious resource you’ve been given: your time. That said, we’ll be laying down some hard facts that aren’t often addressed in the online space - being underpaid as an influencer.

Now, depending on your mission or whether you’re building a business or just dabbling in a hobby - you may have a completely different reaction to this. So today, we are really speaking to those women out there who are looking to truly create something of their own with the long-term goal of not having to rely on other businesses for content or money.

We talk about:

- How much influencers actually make

- Lessons learned from past collabs

- How to build influence around something you own
