Inspired Creators: Case Study pt. 2 (@hellotefi)
Welcome to our final episode in our six-part series on Inspired Creators, where we’re musing on recovering from burnout, embodying your ideal creator archetype, finding your energetic creation wave, and what the Witch Wound has to do with our intuition and creative output.
This week we’re doing a creator case study! We asked our lovely community to volunteer their work so we could riff on all the potential ways they might monetize, streamline, and expand their platforms to bring in greater financial flow and create with more ease.
Today’s episode will feature the ingenious creator @hellotefi
Follow Tefi on IG @athellotefi, @hellotefi on TikTok, and check out her multi-hyphenate creations here.

“You got to test things out, and there’s no harm or shame in deciding to quit.”
“To recap, direct paid content is when you get paid directly through a transaction for the work that you’re doing.”
“Substack is an email platform where you can send out emails and podcasts, either gated content that’s behind a paywall, or it can be free. It makes it really easy for creators to both incentivize and grow their free audience and convince them to be a patron.”
“You don’t have to send the same thing out every week. You don’t just send the same newsletter out, you can send what you’re interested in, especially if you’re a creator like Tefi. And you have tons of different interests, as long as you ground people in why you’re sharing it with them, why you think it’s cool, that’ll work!”
