Sticky Post By christinafaith On December 23, 2016 With No Comments

One year ago @withwendy had 70 k subscribers today she has 372k. Wendy started creating clothes out of desire to make what she saw but better. Every Wedneday Wendy provides a sewing tutorial and teaches future fashionista’s how to DIY clothing.

Wendy didn’t have a background in fashion on the contraty she worked in corporate America and decided to create a Youtube channel out of sheer desire.

When you first encounter Wendy’s creations you automatically have a sense of envy (just joking). She does an incredible job of making modern clothing from scratch that you wish you could buy at your favorite clothing boutique.

When we recorded the podcast Wendy had 70,000 subscribers on YouTube today she has well over 350,000.

We discussed:

How she went from business and engineering to self recording her Youtube videos
Not being awkward on camera
Becoming comfortable with who she is as a person
Speaking honestly to people she doesn’t know
What fuels her to continue sowing?
The importance of being interested in what you are youtubing about
How encouragement helps you keep going
How her style is a mixture between J. Crew and Adidas
What she would do differently if she had to restart her brand
Deciding what DIY projects to work on
The amount of time you have to put into YouTube
The equipment she uses
Talking to your friends about your resource needs
Relationships being your biggest currency

How to Grow Your Part-Time Passion to Full-Time Influence

Sticky Post By christinafaith On April 6, 2016

Harold Arnold is a good friend. His work ethic is to be gleaned from. In this episode we discuss his new book Second Shift: How to Grow Your Part-Time Passion to Full-Time Influence.

You are uniquely created to reflect an aspect of God here on earth through the influence that you wield. Influence, however, is widely misunderstood as a commodity reserved for a precious few. In reality, you are designed to transform your families and communities with a transcendent message of hope as you commit to listen, love, and lead with authenticity.
Second Shift is a step-by-step plan for leveraging your passions as a path to extraordinary possibilities, especially suited for those pursuing them in the part-time margins of life.- Harold Arnold
