Lit Up + In Flow

E6: Cass spills the tea on her biz, the pivots and the big decisions she's had to make

Cassie Ellen + Amanda Campeanu Season 1 Episode 6

In this episode, Cass is pulling back the curtain on the biggest business pivots she’s made—why she walked away from a thriving video business, the mistakes she made along the way, and how she finally built a business that feels aligned and profitable. If you’ve ever felt stuck, burnt out, or questioning if you’re even on the right path, this episode is for you. 

We’re talking about the difference between pushing through resistance vs. knowing when it’s time to pivot, why playing it safe and scaling gradually is actually harder than going all in on a bold vision, and the mindset shifts that helped Cass go from scrambling for clients to attracting high-value, long-term partnerships. 

Plus, we’re diving into the real reason most people’s marketing isn’t working (hint: you’re selling the wrong thing) and how to position yourself so your ideal clients want to work with you. 

Whether you’re in the middle of a pivot, thinking about making a big move, or just need a fresh perspective on how to grow, this episode will give you a whole new way of looking at your business.
