In this episode, Willow sits down with Charis from Torera Designs for a check-in on how her business is doing now that she's been a student for two years. Charis is only 22 years old and already building serious momentum in her design business. What started as learning the skills and figuring things out has turned into something much bigger than she expected.
Over the past two years, Charis has been steadily building her client base, raising her rates, and hitting HUGE months in her business while still working her 9โ5. She shares what helped things finally start clicking for her, how she began attracting better clients, and what it actually looks like to grow a business when you're balancing it with a full-time job.
Unlike some of our past interviews, Charis specializes in Shopify design. But the strategies and mindset shifts she talks about apply to any designer who wants to start booking clients, build real momentum, and create a business that can eventually replace their 9โ5. If you've ever wondered what this path can look like in the early stages, you'll love this conversation!!
