What It's About
An update from an Australian artist who gets paid to draw houses.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1160
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. So far in these features we’ve had a woman who teaches citizenship classes and civics lessons on YouTube, a bridesmaid-for-hire who ends up licensing her idea and writing a book, among others. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Georgia Norton Lodge in Sydney, Australia. Her side hustle is now her main hustle—you’ll hear more about that from her—and it’s something very clever: she draws and sells illustrations of people’s homes. What’s happened since we first featured Georgia? Listen to today's episode to hear Georgia's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
