We all have things we love doing, but how do you take a passion, hobby, or skill and actually turn it into something more?
In this episode, we’re talking about our own experiences taking those first steps. Maria shares how simply bringing her colorful, healthy lunches to work unexpectedly turned into Mo Meals, an underground meal prep business serving up to 30 meals a day. Jason shares how a lifelong love of interior design went from something that felt unattainable to real projects with friends, giving him a chance to test his skills, develop his process, and figure out what kind of business he actually wants to build.
We’ll also talk about the pressure we put on ourselves to have everything figured out from the beginning, why your passion doesn’t need to replace your full-time income to be worth pursuing, and how starting with small wins can help turn that big dream in your head into something real.

You don’t need the perfect business plan or the biggest client. Sometimes you just need to try something, learn from it, and have a few besties around to ask you the most important question: why not?
