It's an absolute delight this week to be joined by the one and only, Sara Tasker. You might know her as @meandorla on Instagram or elsewhere. You might also know her as the author of #Authentic the book or the host of the podcast by the same name. Or, maybe as one of the co-hosts of Letter from a Hopeful Creative. Sara is a busy bee online and it's clear she works hard yet it's still surprising to many people that she's managed to build a multiple 6-figure business out of what was once a hobby...posting on Instagram. Since those early days where she started gaining popularity Sara has expanded her empire to writing, podcast, speaking, consulting and coaching others how to do the same. In this conversation Sara shares about her journey to building a business and life she loves. Originally starting her career as a speech therapist Sara is now one of the authoritative voices on influencing online, digital marketing and being how to keep your soul and remain authentic whilst doing it. It was a delight to talk with Sara and I think you'll love this episode. If you do please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts - it helps spread the word!

Jen is passionate about helping us to live life and run creative businesses on our own terms, choosing more than feeling overwhelmed, overworked, and burned out in our careers. Its been a pleasure to admire Jen’s work evolve over the years and I particularly love how she creates thoughtful, useful mini books to help us all figure this running a business lark out! Jen and I discuss what it really takes to build an online creative business, how to do it with self-doubt, and how to trust yourself when the online world is trying to profit from your insecurities. We talk about defining success on your own terms, why chasing six figures is a path to disillusionment and how navigating through life's adversities are the best training any business owner could hope for.
