They dig into:
- How a 12-year-old jewelry “side hustle” turned into a masterclass in pricing, margins, and labor

- Why W-2 income is king for lending—and how that compares to entrepreneurship
- The biggest mistake small business owners make with cash and underreporting
- Why your credit score is your financial reputation (and why the story behind it doesn’t show up on the application)
- The truth about “cash is king” in 2025 and what really matters instead (liquidity + access)
- How to start monetizing your social media without a massive audience
- Brand deals, UGC, and why some creators with 4K followers earn more than those with 40K
- Separating your influencer income with an LLC, clean bookkeeping, and tax planning
- Why not every passion needs to be maximized for profit—and how to decide what’s for money vs. what’s for joy
- Turn your creativity into an actual revenue stream
- Walk into the bank as a stronger borrower
- Protect your credit score and borrowing power
- Build multiple income streams without burning out
