In this episode of Influence Confidential, I sat down with Kristen Bousquet — Creator Monetization Coach, founder of Your Soulcialmate, and Contributor at Forbes — to talk about what it really takes to build a profitable, sustainable Creator business. After generating over $500,000 as a micro-influencer and selling her first business at 25, Kristen brings real-life experience to the monetization conversation. We unpacked the difference between chasing money and building long-term sustainability, why great content alone isn’t enough anymore, and what brands are actually looking for today — authority, positioning, and a community that truly trusts you. Kristen also shared her perspective on burnout, the CEO vs. manager mindset shift, and how Creators can better evaluate the ROI of their time (especially when it comes to pitching). If you’re already monetizing but want to grow smarter — not just harder — this episode is your reminder that influence is a business, and sustainability should be the goal.
