  • Bonus Episode: Money for Artists with Leah Goard

    In this episode we talk Money for Artists with Leah Goard!

    So many of our members and artists struggle with the age old tale of the “starving artist” and other money stories we have picked up along the way. At THRIVE we believe these stories and mindset for artists needs to change. We need to define our money stories, design a better path and align this with routines that help us be successful.

    But we need a guide and we need to do the work and that is why we are so excited to have Leah as a guest on the Podcast!

    We are also thrilled to have partnered with Leah to create a course all about money for artists! We have just launched this amazing work and the course is called Define Design Align Money Course for Artists and you can sign up for it here!
