Every January, artists promise themselves this is the year they finally show up consistently in the studio. By February, the sketchbook's still blank. Jodie has a different theory: fall, not January, is the real reset, because it doesn't ask us to rely on willpower the way New Year's resolutions do. In this episode, Jodie walks through why the September feeling never actually leaves us, even once nobody's handing us a new school year anymore. She shares the three questions she asks herself every fall (who do you want to be, what do you want to learn, what scares you most), introduces her Dululu Wednesdays challenge, and breaks down exactly how to back into a holiday collection release before the season gets away from you. She also shares something personal: this is the last episode of Season 7, and she's got news about what's coming in Season 8, including a new version of ArtBiz for Rebels that was built to give artists their time back!! See yall in November!!!!

In this episode, Jodie breaks down why an engaged audience and a buying audience are not the same thing, and the four specific things missing from almost every art post that keep followers from ever becoming collectors. Jodie walks through the psychology of familiarity and parasocial trust, why price transparency matters more than most artists think, and the story behind a painting she sold called Finding the Way, using it to show the difference between a making story and a becoming story.

In 2019, Jodie spent $20,000 on a program she could not really afford, terrified and with zero proof it would work. That decision turned into $250,000 in revenue that year. This week, Jodie breaks down the fear stack that keeps artists circling the same decision for years, and why ready is not a feeling you wait for. It is a decision you make first and prove second. Jodie also shares the story of Studio Elite alum Jodie Gear, who applied the night before the deadline with shaking hands, and has since built an entire home furnishings line out of that one decision.

You've sold your work. You might even have a waitlist. So why do you still talk about your art like it's a hobby you squeeze in around your real life? That's not humility. That's fear, dressed up in a really convincing costume. In this episode, Jodie names the three lies keeping artists small, even ones who are already selling: that success will cost you the joy, that visible ambition means public failure, and that claiming this life means giving up who you already are. She shares stories from her own life and from artists inside Studio Elite who faced these exact fears and moved through them anyway. What you'll learn in this episode: • Why time blocking protects your joy instead of stealing it • Why staying small doesn't protect your reputation, it just protects you from ever being seen trying • Why certainty never comes first, and what actually does instead Resources Mentioned: The Artist Who Gets Paid, Jodie's 3-part workshop (August 20, 25, and 27): https://www.jodiekingart.com/artistseries Studio Elite Mastermind applications: https://www.jodiekingart.com/studioelite Episode 138, How to Make Your Art Career Dreams a Reality with Jodie Gear: https://jodieking.com/episode-138-how-to-make-your-art-career-dreams-a-reality-with-jodie-gear/ Episode 116, You Can't Fake It: The Power of Artist Identity In a Crowded Art World: https://jodieking.com/episode-116-you-cant-fake-it-the-power-of-artist-identity-in-a-crowded-art-world/ Episode 149, 22 Years As An Artist: What I'll Never Do Again: https://jodieking.com/episode-149-22-years-as-an-artist-what-ill-never-do-again/ Have a question for Jodie?

Six years ago, Sue White picked up a paintbrush for the first time. Before that, she spent decades building a career in the furniture/design industry that came with a lot of perfectionism and people pleasing standing between her and calling herself an artist. But then everything changed. In this episode, Sue joins Jodie to talk about the exact moment that changed, an offhand comment in an airport that turned into the first time she said the words I'm an artist out loud. Not long after, she sold two large paintings in a single week. Jodie and Sue get into the self-talk every artist battles, the two non-negotiables that changed how Sue runs her art business, and what she is building next.

If you think you have to perfect your art before you let yourself think about the business side, Jodie has news for you: that belief is not protecting your work, it's stalling it. In this episode, Jodie breaks down her 85% rule, the mindset hack she uses every time perfectionism tries to keep her work off the easel and out of the world. Jodie shares the story of an artist whose technically flawless painting had nothing left in it because the energy and story got polished away, and the piece of her own early work that's so "cringeworthy" it lives in a closet, but sold anyway. She walks through why art, business, and mindset were never meant to be separate lanes you pick between, and why the artists who build real, sustainable careers work on all three at once. In this episode: Why waiting for "perfect" is usually just stalling dressed up as responsibility The real difference between technically skilled work and work with a story Jodie's 85% rule for getting your art out into the world Why art, business, and mindset have to move together, not in sequence Resources Mentioned The Artist Who Gets Paid, Jodie's 3-part workshop (August 20, 25, and 27): https://www.jodiekingart.com/artistseries Studio Elite Mastermind applications: https://www.jodiekingart.com/studioelite Episode 16: How to Get Out of the Fugly Stage of Art: https://jodieking.com/episode-16-how-to-get-out-of-the-fugly-stage-of-art/ Episode 31: Artist's Money Mindset: What Do You Really Believe Is Possible?: https://jodieking.com/episode-31-artists-money-mindset-what-do-you-really-believe-is-possible/ Episode 87: How Imposter Syndrome Is Holding You Back as an Artist: https://jodieking.com/episode-87-how-imposter-syndrome-is-holding-you-back-as-an-artist-what-to-do-about-it/ Episode 113: From Hobby to Career: How Artists Go Pro: https://jodieking.com/episode-113-from-hobby-to-career-how-artists-go-pro/ Episode 145: How Your Mindset Impacts Art Pricing: https://jodieking.com/episode-145-how-your-mindset-impacts-art-pricing-one-on-one-coaching-with-jennifer-cupp/ Have a question for Jodie?

If you have been waiting to feel ready before you invest in your art business, this episode is your permission slip to stop waiting. Jodie shares the story of the moment she first felt like a complete imposter, and the six honest questions she now asks every artist before they spend another dollar on their art business, whether that is a mastermind, a workshop, a studio, or new supplies. • Why readiness is a nervous system issue, not a resume issue • The story behind Jodie's first art fair and the tears in the car ride home • Why you only need 1% more courage than fear • The six questions to ask yourself before investing in your business • Why the Rebel Trifecta of art, business, and mindset has to move together Resources Mentioned: The Artist Who Gets Paid, Jodie's 3-part workshop (August 20, 25, and 27): https://www.jodiekingart.com/artistseries Studio Elite Mastermind applications: www.jodiekingart.com/studioelite Honest Art® Society: jodiekingart.com/has Episode 31: Artist's Money Mindset: jodieking.com/episode-31 Episode 57: Do You Fear Failing With Your Art?
