Episode 2802

Today’s episode is part of a feature we call ‘Your First $1,000.’ As you might surmise from the title, this is all about how someone made their first $1,000. How did they get to that point? Not their first $100,000—that’s cool, but it would probably be a long story. With that in mind, today’s feature comes from Arjun, an artist who turned their passion for creating fantasy maps into a profitable business. But what about their first $1,000—how did they make that happen, what did it feel like, and what did they learn? Let’s hear today's story. I’ll be back at the end to wrap us up.

Yours in the revolution,
