Steph is amazing! I’ve been listening to her podcast from the beginning. She is a wealth of knowledge, easy to listen to, and trust worthy. She is the only person I have come across giving advice that is actually solid and without trying to sell, sell, sell - although her products are also amazing! Steph keeps it real and I look forward to her podcast episode each week.
I listen to a lot of podcasts that talk about mindset and goal setting, which I love. How to be a Handmade Boss delves into mindset as well, but then really gives solid information about things you can implement immediately to help grow your Etsy shop, some great behind the scenes knowledge and tested techniques. I’ve binged all the episodes once I found this podcast. It is a must to add to your podcast library if you are running or hope to open an Etsy shop or your own website for a handmade business. Steph is very relatable and the theme song rocks!
I love listening to Steph talk about her shop and sharing her knowledge freely with everyone. You can tell she is genuine and wants everyone to succeed. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
I can’t say enough about this podcast. It’s great! I was able to catch up, listening to them at work yesterday and conspicuously took four pages of nuggets. It gave me motivation to dive back into my Etsy shop. I did sign up for her other course about a month ago, and I’m excited to continue with her learning path. I highly recommend, listening to her podcast the information she provides is something people typically would pay for.
