In this episode of the Artful Dollar podcast, Ryan Roi talks with tattoo artist Becca Nushell about overcoming fear and scarcity in tattooing. 
 
Becca shares her 20-year journey from early “scratching,” a costly Oregon apprenticeship, and enduring shop abuse, to learning key color techniques and mindset shifts after meeting Megan Massacre on a TLC show. 
 
She recounts opening studios before COVID, surviving shutdowns with limited savings, evacuating during major Oregon fires, and relocating her family to Texas while commuting back to Oregon for marathon sessions. 
 
After repeated shop instability and negativity, she left in 2024, felt close to failure, and invested in Ryan’s program, leading to consistent social media and SEO systems, rapid follower growth, higher pricing, and being booked months out.
