78. When Money Enters the Studio {And What To Do About It}
At some point, money enters the room.
Sales pick up. Demand increases. Expectations shift.
And suddenly, the work you once made from instinct and joy starts answering to numbers instead.
In this episode, Kendal speaks candidly from the artist’s side of the table about what it feels like when creative focus drifts from making meaningful work to chasing financial outcomes—and how easy it is to lose your footing in the process.
Together, we explore:
The moment artists realize money has started influencing their creative decisions
How external validation and income can quietly reshape the work
Why success doesn’t always feel the way we expect it to
How Kendal personally course-corrects when the art starts to feel performative or pressured
This isn’t about rejecting money or ambition.
It’s about learning how to let money exist in the room without letting it lead.
It can be lonely selling art every week without a solid group of like-minded friends. Meet your new business besties Kayla Cole Pacana (Art Business Coach) and Kendal Blanchard (Fine Artist from Fairhope, AL) as they dissect all things life, art, and business. Tune in to learn how to navigate the ups and downs of running your own creative business.
