In this episode, Stacie sits down with Australian artist and entrepreneur Georgia Norton Lodge to explore the winding road from drawing houses as a side hustle to running multiple thriving businesses. Georgia shares how transparency, pricing strategy, creative pivots, and an unshakeable community-first mindset have helped her build a million-dollar business. Whether you're drawing houses or dreaming big, Georgia brings both the tough love and encouragement creatives need to hear. Today on Art + Audience: The Accidental Beginning: How a botched book cover project sparked a booming business drawing people's homes.

Tough Love and Real Talk: The difference between being an artist and building an art business, Georgia gets real about pricing, criticism, and toxic positivity. Two Roads to Success: The quiet, word-of-mouth service path vs. the loud, social-media-driven audience path, and how to choose what's right for you.
