Reader,

Ever look at your stack of half-finished projects and think, “Could I actually sell something like this?”

Whether you're dreaming of starting a side hustle or just want your hobby to fund itself, creating a simple, low-risk starter offer is one of the best ways to dip your toes into the world of digital product sales.

This week inside the Part-Time Passion Club, I’m hosting a live hands-on workshop to help members create that first irresistible offer — and you're invited if you’ve been on the fence about monetizing your creativity.

Plus, if you're diving into digital scrapbooking or junk journaling this month, we’ve got fresh inspiration and a 30% off code for our most-loved creative supplies in the shop — just for fun.

But the truth? You don’t need to create something huge to get started.

In this week’s blog, I’m breaking down a simple 3-question method to help you figure out what to sell — fast. It’s how many of our members have launched their first offer (without the overwhelm).

P.S. I’m teaching this live inside the Part-Time Passion Club this week. If you want help building your first offer in real time, you can still join us.
