Hi Reader,

Ever wonder if you're doing the right thing? Like maybe you should give up on your dreams and get something stable... even if it means sacrificing your sanity and freedom?

Same. 😩

Walking away from the traditional 9–5 to build a business from your kitchen table (or couch, or carpool lane) is terrifying — and exhausting. I’ve been doing this for two decades (yep, even before the pandemic ​made WFH​ trendy), and there are still days where the hustle is real... and the crickets are loud. 🦗

​​💸 Passive income​ is crucial these days — but while you’re laying those foundations (memberships, products, affiliate links, all the things), you might also be stressing about how to keep the lights on without crawling back to corporate.

​​Freelancing = the answer.​ It’s flexible. It’s powerful. And it’s how I’ve supplemented my income for years — while raising kids, making scratch meals, and DIY’ing everything from laundry soap to lip balm.

🚀 Want to start freelancing?

You don’t need a fancy degree or decades of experience to start offering services people actually pay for.

Here are just a few freelancing gigs I love:

• ​​✏️ Copywriting​​
• 🖥️ Virtual Assistant
• 🎨 Graphic & Web Design
• 📣 Marketing & Strategy

Need ideas? Reply to this email and I’ll send you my Freelancing Quickie Guide — a fun, fast download with the top 5 skills freelancers need right now (even if you're starting from scratch).

And if you're ready to take the next step, grab my Passive Income Jumpstart Guide — it's 50% off right now and walks you through setting up multiple income streams like:

• ​​Affiliate marketing​​
• Freelancing
• Dropshipping
• E-commerce
• Handmade goods
• ​​Small biz startup​​

😬 Real talk: I’m opening up my freelancing calendar again

After three years and a recent (wildly expensive) surgery, I’m saying yes to client work again. If you're running a small biz and need help with the stuff that drains you — content, email, design, strategy — let’s talk. ​→ Book a free consultation here​​

Not ready yet? If you’re dreaming of starting your own biz, fill out this quick form and I’ll help you map out a plan. I’m also reworking my ​Business Builder Memberships​ (because…crickets) and would love your feedback. 👉 Everyone who shares their thoughts gets:
