Local Pop-Ups Got Her Paying Clients (No Ads, No Followers)

Описание: In this episode, Ken Freire sits down with scientist and author Elizabeth Gregor to unpack how she’s building a faith-centered science education business—from her PhD journey and early YouTube/blog experiments to publishing books, designing courses, and scaling beyond her local market. They talk about practical ways to monetize expertise (books → courses → community), what it takes to “burn the ships” responsibly, and how Elizabeth is using content + community to reach parents, students, and homeschool families nationwide.
