Knowing When to Take the Leap with Isaac Shue
Show notes
Isaac Shue of Gallery Mostaza joins Ryan to discuss taking big risks and making difficult decisions as a creative business owner. Isaac shares his journey from leaving a full-time teaching career to pursue pottery, opening a 2,000-square-foot gallery, and relocating his business in search of new opportunities. Together, they explore the importance of financial preparation, trusting your instincts, and knowing when to take a leap toward building the business and life you want. Thanks to Jamie from 7 Ferns Studio for the topic request.
