#175: Talking About Money and Blogging

Today, I'm interviewing Allison Baggerly from Inspired Budget, and we're talking about money and blogging! Yep, we're going there. Money is one of the most uncomfortable topics to discuss, which is why I think it's so important. Allison shares how she pulled herself out of over $100,000 in debt, which led to her creating her blog to help others do the same. We talk about how as a blogger, you should think about budgeting (even if you have debt), so you can grow your online business successfully. You do need to spend money to make money, but how do you know how much to spend? How long should you give yourself to build a blog? And what about all those expensive courses? Are they worth it? These are just a few of the topics we cover in today's conversation. If money is something you think about and worry about (and who doesn't?), this is the episode for you. Listen now!
