After turning her Etsy Shop into a passive income machine, her passion is to help other creative and overwhelmed moms open their own Etsy shop that runs practically on auto-pilot. TAKEAWAYS: + Kristen’s super power in her business is developing, implementing, and scaling a passive, drop shipping Etsy shop, that runs for her in the background, where she doesn’t manage inventory, and helping other busy mompreneurs to do the same. + Kristen chose to lean into the Etsy platform because it’s already done for you. With other platforms to sell physical products, you have to build the website, integrate all of the platforms, and hook up the automations. Etsy does that work for you. And she doesn’t want the tech to be the reason that holds her clients back. + Managing your Etsy shop should take 5-10 minutes a day. And most of the work isn’t spent in the Etsy platform.

She says that that shift created massive change in the way she approaches and grows her business.+

Happy New Year 6-Figure Momprenurs! I’m excited for the first month of the podcast this year because we’re focusing on all things wellness. It’s the thing my clients, my colleagues, and my friends always identify as wanting to improve, no matter what level of business and/or stage of life they may be in. Wellness is ALWAYS something that busy mompreneurs define as wanting to improve upon.So to kick off the wellness series this month and year, on today’s podcast I’m chatting words of the year and why they are flawed, most of the time.Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE a word of the year. I pick one every year and it really helps me to be clear, focused, and stay tied to my bigger picture. But so many mompreneurs simply pick a word without it being tied to a bigger vision that they have for their business and/or life. And so after a couple of weeks of focusing on it, the word gets thrown to the wayside and forgotten.On today’s podcast I’m chatting through:+ how to use your word of the year+ how to make sure it ties in

This week on the podcast I’m reflecting on 6 years of online entrepreneurship.I’ll be sharing a bit more of my story of the early days of my business and the biggest regret I have when it comes to building a business for long-term, sustainable success.Don’t get me wrong, I’m a HUGE fan of the process of entrepreneurship.
