Wondering where to invest in your art business — especially when money feels tight or unpredictable?

In this episode of The Artist’s Guide to Business, I take you behind the scenes of my own business and share exactly where I spent money last year — from tools to coaching to systems — and what I’m changing as I plan for the year ahead.

We’ll talk about:

The difference between smart investments and shiny distractions

What to spend money on when you’re just starting out vs. when you’re ready to scale

How to reflect on last year’s ROI (return on investment) so you can make sharper decisions this year

Why sometimes the best investment isn’t money — it’s time or structure


Whether you're running your first real art biz or trying to make the leap to full time, this episode will help you get intentional, clear, and confident about how you’re spending your money and energy.
