Episode Description:
Ever wonder if that extra pair of baby shoes or outdated kitchen gadget sitting in your cabinet is worth anything? Spoiler alert: It is. In this episode of The Mama Making Podcast, Jessica sits down with Olivia —also known as The Marketplace Mom—to talk about the wild world of Facebook Marketplace. From turning clutter into cash to managing no-shows with grace, Olivia is here to demystify the selling process for everyday moms.
She shares how her side hustle started with a $15 TV mount and turned into a full-blown movement helping women feel empowered to sell, buy, and declutter on their own terms. They break down the myths, the must-knows, and even the “crazy stuff people will buy” moments.
