How to work with different personalities, divide responsibilities, and split your income with Polly Conner and Rachel Tiemeyer.

Welcome to episode 114 of the Food Blogger Pro podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork talks with Polly Conner and Rachel Tiemeyer from Thriving Home about working as a partnership on their blog.

How to Run a Successful Blog as a Partnership
