1-year in the past I took a leap of religion and stop my full-time job to start out my on-line enterprise, constructed round my abilities and passions.
I wished to construct my days round work that fulfils me but in addition offers me time freedom and monetary independence from an employer.

After doing Amy Porterfield’s Digital Course Academy in 2022 while I used to be in my full-time job, I used to be satisfied that I had the ability to create my very own on-line enterprise. That is the place the seed was planted.
Excited to develop my data even additional, I did extra programs, signed-up to many communities, and labored 1:1 with a coach.
After which I realised that you simply can not learn to do one thing simply by attending masterclasses and workshops, and being coached.
Whereas there’s large worth in programs and training, primarily based on what you will have discovered from these programs and coaches, you have to take motion.
Solely then you’ll know what you can do.
Solely then you should have the route you search and the solutions you’re in search of.
And the reality is, there’s no manner to have all of it found out earlier than you are taking motion.
You must take motion, not understanding. And that’s when you’ll know!
It’s counterintuitive I do know. and analysis-paralysis is actual.
So, all I’ve been doing during the last 6 months, is aggressively taking motion.
I picked an issue I may remedy, and an viewers I wished to serve, after which simply went for it.
What I do: “I assist working mums and feminine small enterprise homeowners learn to use AI to work higher and sooner, and make their first greenback on-line.”
