Ditch the Job, Embrace the Clay: Why You Should Pursue Your Passions Now (with Kass Tanguay) (S2 E3)

This episode takes us on Kass's incredible journey from corporate life to pursuing her dual passions: social media marketing and creating stunning clay jewelry.

• The double-time hustle: building her business while working full-time.
• The "sushi vs. ramen noodles" analogy for adjusting your spending habits.
