Profitable Creatives Podcast

Don't just be a Profitable Creative - Be a WEALTHY Creative in 2026


Listen Later

I didn't quit my high-paying software engineering job at Apple to make LESS money in my photography business. I quit because I saw that building my own creative business meant there would be no salary ceiling. I'd be in control of how much I make—not some VP deciding my worth based on years of experience.

You deserve to be a WEALTHY creative.

In this episode, I'm breaking down:

  • Why I REALLY quit my corporate job (hint: it wasn't to "follow my passion" and accept less money)
  • The difference between being profitable and being wealthy—and why it matters
  • Why there's no salary ceiling when you run your own business
  • The biggest mistake I see creatives making on the road to becoming a profitable & wealthy creative
  • What it actually takes to go from employee to full-time creative earning more than your 9-5

If you've ever felt like you should "just be happy" with your creative business, or if people keep asking about your "little business" like it's cute hobby... this episode is for you.
