How many times have you been told to “follow your passion?” It’s advice that pops up in graduation speeches, Instagram captions, and dozens of career articles. But following your passion is easier said than done. According to a recent Deloitte survey of 3,000 full-time U.S. workers, across job levels and industries, only 20% say they are truly passionate about their work. Thankfully, today's WorkParty guest knows a thing or two about how to follow a passion and turn it into a profitable business, and she's here to share her insights. Jess Rona has turned what was once a part-time career as a dog groomer into a full-fledged business complete with a celebrity client list, a coffee table book, and an HBO Max series. And it all started with a viral Instagram video. I can’t wait to talk with the actress, comedian, and celebrity dog groomer about how she turned her passion into dollars and cents. So, without further ado—welcome to WorkParty, Jess! • Join the party on social @workparty and stay in-the-know at workparty.com.
