The arts are billion-dollar industries, but here’s the harsh truth: most of the money rarely makes its way to the artists themselves. Whether you’re a painter, writer, or performer, you’ve likely felt the weight of financial insecurity. In this episode, we’re exploring why the creative world leaves so many of us struggling to pay the bills, despite the wealth generated by our work.
We’ll unpack the systemic issues that keep artists broke and share practical, actionable steps to start building financial freedom. From rethinking the “starving artist” mindset to taking control of your cash flow, this episode is all about empowering you to create without sacrificing stability. It’s time to take your financial well-being as seriously as your craft. RESOURCES:
