Could a food blog replace your salary? Since quitting her job to become a full-time entrepreneur in May 2021, Jannese Torres has generated over $1M in revenue. With a six-figure food blog, Jannese creates easy Latin recipes inspired by her Puerto Rican heritage.

If making six figures as a food blogger isn't impressive enough, Jannese stopped blogging at the end of 2020 and hasn't created new content since. She continues to earn six figures a year by occasionally updating old posts and reshooting older recipes.

Jannese Torres-Rodriguez shares her journey from side hustler to entrepreneur. She shares how she earns a six-figure income from her blog and other sources.

Are travel guidebooks still worth it? I was first introduced to travel guidebooks a few years ago while traveling solo in Lisbon, Portugal. A new friend I met at my hostel and I considered what we'd grab for dinner when she whipped out a guidebook. Gauging our interests, we quickly found a highly-rated but low-key restaurant off the tourist path. Since then, guidebooks have become an invaluable resource for inspiration and travel planning, unlocking local gems, tips, and perspectives.

In this episode, discover reasons to use a guidebook when travel planning and how Moon Travel Guides helped me plan my first family road trip.

This episode is made possible by Moon Travel Guides, a travel guidebook publisher that covers road trips, national parks, and city travel worldwide. All thoughts and opinions shared in this episode are my own.
