How do you chase your passion AND pay your bills at the same time? Our guest expert this week is Alex Beard, artist and owner of the Alex Beard Studio, is living proof that it can be done.

We all want to pursue things that we’re passionate about but the struggle to monetize can often put people back into the daily grind. It takes courage and a powerful drive to turn a “passion project” into a “profit project.” Today we’re introducing you to someone who has empowered his soul to feed his wallet.
