241 | Can You Really Build a Jewelry Brand While Working a 9–5? with Jill Elise
Description
Do you feel too drained after your 9–5 to grow your jewelry business or worried you're moving "too slowly"?
In this episode, I sit down with Jill Elise, the artist behind Lilikoi Project, to talk ADHD, porcelain jewelry, and the surprising relief that comes when your business finally aligns with who you are. We unpack how an aligned side business can energize your day job, the mindset that rebuilds self-trust, and why daily Instagram touchpoints beat endless "getting ready" mode. Jill shares her rock-bottom moment, the simple actions that sparked momentum (hello, one post a day), and the power of community inside the Jewelry Business Academy.
If you're a jewelry business owner balancing a corporate role, struggling with consistency, or afraid to be seen, this conversation will help you trade burnout for clarity, build confidence in your voice, and grow a brand that customers respect enough to invest in.
