Along the way, "I had this idea for the breakup bootcamp," she says, a place where people who'd recently gone through a breakup could find solace and comfort together. Despite writing out the vision for breakup bootcamp in 2015, "I was too scared" to make it happen immediately, she says. That's why, now, her best advice for turning your passion into a career is "whatever it is," she says, "just launch it." Finally, in February 2017, she launched the first breakup bootcamp. They laid out a potential career path as a breakup coach and, in August 2017, she finally left her job in marketing to launch into her relationship-oriented career full-time.

She and her sister-in-law made table-long charcuterie spreads for family gatherings, and she started selling them to other people on Facebook Marketplace in May 2022. Her first batch, made at her "kitchen island," was modest compared to her current ones, Smith says. Smith built her business, now called Bite by Bite & Co., from her house and a nearby church kitchen while maintaining her full-time job as a project manager at Capital One. "To my core, I love entertaining, I love hosting, I love giving everybody a good experience," says Smith. My business has evolved to really provide a more homemade experience — we create our own cheese balls and cheese dips from fresh ingredients.

AdvertisementAs the way we save for retirement has evolved, some people are now cashing in on the golden age for retirement savings — when benefits were more generous and investments in real estate and stocks boomed. While it's still possible to achieve, a fat retirement account has become rarer. AdvertisementBack in 2007, per GAO's calculations of the Survey of Consumer Finances, around 21% of low-income households had a retirement account balance. While losses weren't as profound for those in the middle-income quintile, their retirement account balances did fall slightly from 2007 to 2019. All of that comes as retirement savings become more of an individual onus.
