The Karat Podcast

Kazumi was under house arrest from her parents until age 18. When she escaped, she decided to prioritize financial stability above all else to ensure she'd never need to depend on someone else again. She built an OnlyFans empire through smart marketing by herself - earning $300K/ a month and building a fortune of millions. But it was extremely difficult. Join us today as Kazumi shares her journey today with  @trykarat  cofounder @erictway. ---------- Check out Karat at https://www.trykarat.com/ and sign up for a Karat card at https://link.trykarat.com/signup Follow Karat at https://www.instagram.com/trykarat/ Follow Eric at https://www.instagram.com/erictway/ Follow Kazumi at @kazumisworld ----------
