In this solo episode, I dive into all the back-end details of my business, from how I first developed a business plan in content creation to how various elements of my business work today. I share what the early days of Freckled Foodie looked like, what inspired me to quit my corporate job and pursue health and food content creation full-time, and how I took the plunge and built out my business model. I discuss how and why I started the podcast, how I grew my social channels and began monetizing my content, and why getting a management team was the turning point in my career. I also share how what I make now compares with the salary I would be making today in corporate, how my sponsored content works, and how my income is broken down in different buckets. Finally, I talk about the members of my team and what they do, the future of the “Quiet Your Mind, Busy Your Hands” platform, and I answer questions about mentorship, hiring out, and more.
