Last month, I was thrilled to join Karolina Wudniak of Paperwing Studio in the Indie Book Lab! We talked about how I approached self-publishing without relying on Amazon — including the platforms I used, the (costly) mistakes I made, and how much money I've brought in from my book so far (revenue AND profit).I also answered lots of attendee questions:Why did you decide to avoid Amazon? & How much could you really?What size audience would you recommend having before going Amazon-less?Is it realistic to make sales without Amazon's reach? How do you handle discoverability?What does fulfillment look like without a big platform?What about international sales?Is this only viable for nonfiction or niche audiences?

My least favorite thing about starting a business was the overwhelming fear and uncertainty I felt around making money.In the early days, I was drowning in narratives of how most businesses fail, and I'd probably never earn enough to feel supported or successful.But over time… My business started working. More money started flowing. And I built confidence in my ability to steward wealth.Now — I've been working full-time in my business for almost five years. It feels wild to report that I've made over $550,000 in revenue during that time. And I've taken home enough of that to support my family and purchase a home.Is that an income claim? HELL NO. I'm not saying ‘look at what I did; here's a quick way you can do it too.'But I am arriving here (proverbial powerpoint in hand) to open up my books and show you how my business has actually made money over the past five years.Because one thing that would've made starting a business less scary was seeing how other people actually made it work financially. Not with imaginary hypotheticals or overinflated promises. But with actual numbers.So in this episode preview, I'm talking to you about money! And in the full episode (with video), I share five years of my actual numbers.If you're a money nerd (and a nosey nelly) like me, tune in to hear:Why I think financial transparency is important — but only when done with context and care!
With the state of the world, it's easy to believe that creative work is a waste of time. But I believe our businesses, art, and lives can be powerful forces for change.

Your art matters. And it can change the world — if you make it. Tune in to hear this list (or read it right here).
