In this episode, we talk about the realities of transitioning from a full-time job to being a full-time potter and what it's like now that Kara and her husband's roles have actually switched when it comes to supporting the life they want. We also discuss the huge role our mindsets play in being able to succeed as an entrepreneur but also the tactical realities of charging what your work is actually worth. In fact, as Kara mentions, you need to make sure the rest of your brand experience - aka the quality of your photos - lines up with that same value as what you charge for your own work.

 

SO :) If you'd love help taking better photos, faster grab my free 3-step Cheat Sheet here! I promise that even though this handy little PDF will only take you 5 minutes to read and implement, it will be the foundation for speeding up the entire photo taking process.
