Let's talk passive income!

Kenna owns a social media agency and wants to get started earning passive income. She doesn't have a huge following just yet and isn't sure a course is the right way to get started, but I think building a passive income stream is still totally possible!

Thanks to Kenna for participating in this episode. Follow Kenna @soshcollective on Instagram.
