Hello everyone!
Delores here, and I’ve got to say—today’s episode of Creative Juggle Joy is one that Kaylie has truly poured her heart into, and I’m so excited for you all to listen!
In this solo episode, Kaylie opens up about the struggles she faced while running her handmade candle business, especially when she hit a ceiling with growth.
We’ve all been there, right?
Feeling like no matter how hard we work, we’re still stuck in the same place.
But here’s the thing—Kaylie didn’t just keep going with the same old grind.
She made a shift, and that’s exactly what she’s sharing in today’s episode.
She talks about how to scale beyond handmade products, using digital products, print-on-demand, and even passive income streams.
The beauty of it is, you don’t have to abandon your handmade business to make this transition.
You can still keep that personal touch, while also growing your income without burning yourself out.
Kaylie’s experience is a great reminder that scaling doesn’t mean more work—it means working smarter.
She’s so open about her journey, and the stories of other artists and makers who’ve done the same, like Leslie MacKinnon and Kelsey Rodriguez, show that it’s absolutely possible to add scalable income streams while still staying true to your creative roots.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why handmade businesses often hit a ceiling and what to do about it
- The types of scalable products you can introduce to your business (without overwhelming yourself)
- Real-life examples of creatives who’ve made it work, and how you can too
- The first steps you can take today to start your own transition
