In your opinion, when do you know that you're ready to go full-time?

that's such a great question um i've always believed that like i think having a job um for the bulk majority of your time as a creator is probably the right move for most people partially because i think being a creator requires money right like whether you're buying camera equipment phones tripods um there may also be time for your traveling to conferences or in my case you may even be a lifestyle creator so it's like i want to be at coffee shops i want to be be at hotels, there's just a lifestyle aspect of it that costs a lot of money.

So having your day job allows you to do that.

And having your day job also takes the pressure off of your brand deals.

There was a moment where I thought I was ready for full time entrepreneurship about two years ago.

And what I ended up finding out was that like, I was getting brand deals that I didn't necessarily love the product, but I was trying to make it work and trying to force it.

And it's like, you don't want to be in a position where this passion project and thing that could be beautiful is being suffocated by the need for you to survive.

So how do you balance that, the mindset piece of that?
