Ever wonder what's really happening behind the scenes of an Etsy business? In this off-the-cuff episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own Etsy shops—what's working, what's flopping, and the tough lessons I'm learning along the way.

I'll share my full Etsy journey, from selling custom tumblers with my Cricut to pivoting into digital products as a busy mom of two. Plus, I'll give you an inside look at three major diversification experiments I started in late 2024: ✅ Reopening my physical product shop as print-on-demand after a 2+ year break ✅ Expanding my SVG shop by adding AI-generated PNGs for sublimation ✅ Launching a brand-new Etsy shop in a completely different niche

And I won't sugarcoat it—some of these strategies are working, and some? Not so much. I'm breaking down what's been successful, what's been a struggle, and what I'm tweaking next.

Oh, and a little reality check: If you've ever been tempted by those "6-figure Etsy guru" success stories, we need to talk.

Tune in for an honest, unfiltered chat about what it really looks like to test new strategies, adapt, and grow as an Etsy seller in 2025.

If you've ever felt behind on trends, this episode will help you shift your mindset and strategy so you can be proactive, not reactive, in your Etsy business! 🎧✨
