Go all out for your dreams like you life depended on it


Hi Reader,

I ended up the breadwinner, and started a business on the side of my job out of necessity.

I had a 6-figure business debt, school going kids to support, my husband wasn't able to work, and I to leave an untenable work situation meaning we had no income.

Sounds dramatic, and it definitely caused a lot of stress and anxiety at the time.

But that was also when I decided that I was going to get smart about money because nobody was coming to save me

I also realized that being in a corporate job wasn't going to help me prioritize my kids and family.

Climbing the corporate ladder also didn't make sense when there was always going to be a salary cap but unlimited increasing work demands.

The math didn't add up for me.

So I decided to create a different path to have:

  • the time flexibility I wanted
  • the uncapped earning potential
  • the creative freedom to do work that means something to me

But I couldn't just quit my job with a family to support.

And I also couldn't just quit my dream of creating the life I wanted.

That's why I do what I do - to work full-time, run my coaching business on the side, so that I can prioritize my family.

I talk about this on the podcast this week and why pursuing your dreams and goals is so important, especially if you're a mom.

Reader, Nobody ever has spare cash or time lying around. But when it matters, somehow you find it. Like signing your kids up for activities they want, buying your loved ones a fancy birthday dinner, or in my case, investing in myself and my dream business. Last night, I finally dropped $3k on a program I've been thinking about doing for the past 2 years. Each time I had wanted to do it, it felt like too much money - money I didn't have. This time, it isn't that I have the money - of course...
