Welcome to part two of my conversation with interior designer and content creator Shavonda Gardner! We were having such a great conversation that we kept recording and split the conversation into two parts! 

In this episode, Shavonda and I dive into how community building played a role in her growth. We also discuss how to navigate trends without feeling the pressure to conform to them. Finally, we wrap up with advice for content creators who feel like they aren’t getting noticed despite putting in the hard work. 

Are you ready to get paid for your creativity, have more flexibility, and make a consistent monthly income without overwhelm? Bloggers, influencers, and content creators work so hard and are not getting paid what they're worth. If you're making more than $10,000 a year from your brand and are craving the strategy and confidence to create consistent monthly income in a brand that gives you stability, then blogging babe, I want you to go and apply for Shift.

Shift is 12 months of customized strategy and coaching for bloggers, influencers, and content creators who are ready to have a consistent monthly income.
