Ever wondered if your creative skills could translate into a profitable online course?

In this episode, I’m joined by Mindy Young, a surface pattern designer and founder of Indy Bloom Design, who turned her artistic passion into a multiple six-figure course business.

Mindy shares:
✅ The moment she realized her expertise was in demand—and how she turned that into a course
✅ Why starting small led to her biggest course launch success
✅ The common mistakes new course creators make (including a big one she made in naming her first course)
✅ How she managed a wildly successful launch—while navigating imposter syndrome
✅ The surprising role consistency plays in audience growth and course sales

Whether you're in the early stages of course creation or looking to refine your existing strategy, Mindy’s journey is packed with lessons on pricing, audience building, and balancing passion with profit.

📌 Don’t miss the part where she reveals the exact price she charged for her first successful launch—and why she later pulled the course off the market.

🎧 Listen now to hear how Mindy built a thriving course business while staying true to her passion for art!
