E30 - Chelsweets - How my baking blog allowed me to quit my job and buy my apartment!

October 30, 2023 • OLBAA • Season 4 • Episode 4

This former accountant who baked to simply relieve a bit of stress of the madness of her corporate life, finds herself one day doing Facebook lives for the Food Network. How does that happen?

Innocent bakes that she brought in for her coworkers were secretly building the next career she didn’t know she would end up quitting her day job for. She creates content, but it’s not about the social media so much as it is more about her blog. Yes blog, remember those??

Her recipes, and the millions of people who search online and find her website are what has really propelled her second career. Chelsey is very open and honest about her journey. She’s learned a lot but also shared a lot of how she did it, how well it paid her, and where it took her. This is a story about opportunity in so many places! Hope you like it.
