You don't need a massive following to start making money from what you already know, make, or love. In this episode, Trish breaks down three completely different ways to generate income using platforms where buyers are already showing up every day — no viral moment required.

This one's been living in her head for weeks, and it shows.

Inside this episode:

• Why the "I don't have a big enough following yet" belief is keeping you stuck — and what's actually true
• The Maker bucket: WhatNot (live selling, how it works, what it costs, and why Trish fell down a hours-long rabbit hole), Etsy, Amazon Handmade, and TikTok Shop
• The Teacher bucket: Stan Store for simpler digital offers, and a breakdown of Teachable, Thinkific, Kajabi, Udemy, Skillshare, and YouTube for full courses — plus why Trish isn't telling you which one to start with
• The Recommender bucket: how LTK actually works from a shopper's perspective, why the petite example matters, and how Amazon Associates can turn fifteen years of answering the same questions into a commission stream
• Why these three buckets aren't separate ideas — they might be three separate income streams sitting inside the one thing you already do
• The one thing Trish wants you to do this week (it takes thirty minutes and costs nothing)

"The audience already exists. Your job isn't to build the crowd ... it's to show up where the crowd already is."
