If you think the restaurant industry has wild characters, wait until you hear what goes down at auctions.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with my friend Kira, a vintage fabric reseller on Etsy who has seen it ALL.

From smooth talking auctioneers to the eccentric personalities who show up ready to fight for a deal, Kira's stories will have you laughing, gasping, and wondering why there isn't a reality show about this world already.

Kira runs DodOddity on Etsy, where she hunts down and resells incredible vintage fabrics, and she's turned her wildest experiences into not one but TWO books. If you love a good story about hustle, chaos, and the thrill of the find, this conversation is for you.

We'll cover:

• The colorful characters Kira encounters at auctions (and why they rival any restaurant regular)
• What it's really like building a reselling business from the ground up
• The insane things people will do to score a deal
• How Kira turned her auction adventures into two published books
• The crossover between service industry grit and reseller hustle

Whether you're a server who dreams of a side hustle, a thrift lover, or just someone who appreciates a great story, this episode is a blast.
