About this listen
What do you get when you mix a high school dropout, a Dell corporate career, and a pandemic-fueled writing spree? A badass romance author who went from side hustle to full-time bestseller.
In this week’s episode, Jess and Jonesy sit down with author and entrepreneur Nikki Castle—who also just happens to be Jess’s longtime friend and former wedding party VIP. Nikki shares how she transitioned from 10 years in corporate sales to becoming a full-time romance writer, building a self-published empire one spicy love story at a time.
They dig into what it really looks like to leave job security behind, how Nikki hit upload on a Word doc and wound up with a global fanbase, and why burnout doesn’t stop just because you’re doing what you love.
We’re talking identity shifts, running multiple businesses, imposter syndrome, self-publishing tips, building a trusted team, and how to avoid letting hustle culture wreck your creative flow.
Whether you’re bookish, business-minded, or just burnt out—this one’s for you.
