In this episode of Passion to Profession, I sit down with Kristina Thorson, co-founder of Card Ladder, to explore what it takes to build something meaningful in the hobby. We talk about working two jobs before signing the acquisition papers, building trust through transparency, and why every feature on the platform starts with one question: “What's best for the hobby?”This isn't the same old Card Ladder story. It's a behind-the-scenes look at how Kristina went from collector to co-founder, how her academic experience in research compliance shaped the platform's foundation, and what it's like being a woman running a company in a male-dominated industry.This episode is about belief. It's about finding the right people to build with and staying true to what matters.A special thank you to eBay for sponsoring Passion to Profession.

The panel closes out with thoughts on when it's okay to voice negative opinions in the hobby and how to separate emotional reactions from honest critiques. Then, the discussion shifts to the rapid growth of Pokémon and other non-sport cards dominating sports card shows like the National. Jeremy, Chris, Josh, and Joe explore what this shift means for sports card collectors and whether nostalgia still drives collecting behavior. Finally, Chris reveals data showing June was the hottest sales month ever tracked by Card Ladder and offers a word of caution as FOMO returns to the hobby.
