Whether you’re a complete beginner on Etsy, or want to scale your handmade business to multi-6 figures, the “How To Be A Handmade Boss” podcast gives you actionable advice and workshop style full length episodes to grow your handmade business on Etsy and beyond.

We get it. Starting or growing a handmade business can be really overwhelming, and sometimes you feel like you have an expensive hobby rather than a profitable business. If you have questions like “How can I make sales in my business?” “How do I start a handmade shop?” “How can I make this passion my full-time gig?” or “How do I sell my crafts online” then you’re in the right place boss!

I’m Steph, a multi 6-figure handmade business owner (in the top 0.1% of all shops on Etsy), bestselling author of “How to be a handmade boss”, visionary and coach behind Handmade Bosses.

However, It wasn’t always rainbows and unicorns though. Today, my business(es) are bustling, but way back in 2014 when I started, it was HARD. Favourites but no sales, slow sales and low profits seemed in the beginning, like the trajectory of my business. Luckily following the system I’ve now curated, All of that changed and I went full-time in my handmade business in 2016.

Let’s focus on turning your passion into profit, because the world really does need these special creations that you only bring to life.

    Oct 7 2026

    Grab the free guide: Why Your Etsy Listings Aren’t Selling Yet - and What To Do About It: www.handmadebosses.com/whynosales

    New EU packaging and EPR rules are causing a lot of confusion for Etsy sellers, especially businesses selling from the UK into Europe.

    In this episode:

    • What changed from August 2026
    • What PPWR and EPR actually mean
    • Why the rules may affect handmade sellers
    • Why requirements aren't identical in every EU country
    • What I'd check before switching off EU delivery

    You don't need to become an EU packaging-law expert. You do need to know whether the rules apply to your business.
