To monetize or not to monetize? In part one of this two-part discussion, Rachael and Lauren unpack turning their passions into profit, the potential impacts of monetization on the creative process, and how curiosity (and flexibility) is essential for building a fulfilling and sustainable creative business. They also share ways they've harnessed the creative chaos and channeled it toward focused projects or ventures.
