You're listening to the Heart and Hustle Podcast. I'm your host, Lindsay Roman.

Now you might notice something a little different today.

Evie is not here, it is just me, so today's solo show, it's double solo.

It's as solo as you could get.

So low, Lindsay Roman, right here.

Evie will be back next week to share her story,

but we wanted to do something really fun and we got this idea.

I was listening to an episode of Jasmine Stars podcast,

The Jasmine Star Show.

And she did an episode on her podcast

where she just went and deep dive completely into her story of how she got her start and to wrap it up she kind of shared a few tips and lessons that she learned along the way that could be applicable for you as a listener and I really loved that as a listener and so I kind of wanted to bring that idea to the Heart and Hustle podcast for me and Evie and so that's why we decided to split up two different episodes where you get just me on this episode and then next week you'll get just Evie.

One of the most common questions that both Evie and I get asked is how did you start your business?

So many people ask that and while

when we've done podcast interviews on other podcasts we can share it in maybe like

five minutes and we also shared it on this podcast in episode number one.

So real quick if you have not listened to episode number one of our

podcast I would please kindly request you to pause this episode and go back

listen to those because that'll give you kind of just a synopsis.

But in that episode we didn't want to take you know two hours to share both of our stories and

so that's why we're doing this episode where we can kind of just get solo and break it down and really get into the nitty gritty of what I did from Ground Zero when I first picked up a camera, how my photography business took off.

And so, you know what, pull up a seat,

grab some popcorn, grab some wine,
