Ashley Flowers

True Crime Storyteller & Victim Advocate

You ask

“I have one big idea and limited savings. Play it safe or bet on it?”

Full body chills, because this is the exact crossroads every story I love starts at. Here is my rule, and you know I love a rule: always go a layer deeper before you commit. Not vibes, research. Who needs this idea, what would they pay, what does month six look like if nothing works.
Then protect yourself like I would tell any listener: keep a safety fund you never touch, because desperation makes people choose badly. Then bet, on a timeline, with a tripwire. Be weird about your dream. Stay financially alive.
