create a life you want to live

3 Years Self-Employed!

3 years ago this Friday I quit my full time job in the middle of the pandemic and I’ve never looked back!

I won’t lie to you it hasn’t been easy and I still have days where I question if I did the right thing, but I wouldn’t give this up and the freedom I have for anything!

After years of doing what I thought I should and working for other people and one nasty email later I said good-bye to the corporate world and making someone else’s dreams come true and put my dreams first! 2020 was a tough year for all of us and it opened my eyes to how short life is and if you aren’t happy what are you living for?! Right?? I had thought about it for awhile but it wasn’t planned to leave my job 3 years ago but here we are! I’ve made it this far and I’m not going back! I work ten times harder to keep this as my reality then I ever did at any job I had!

So to my fellow dreamers out there, you can do it! This life of working for yourself can be your reality!

I’m cheering you on, you got this!

Celebrating 2 Years Self Employed!

Happy Wednesday friends!

Tomorrow I’m celebrating 2 years self employed! Two years ago I let my 9-5, something I never thought possible nor did I think I would ever do!

From there I started my social media management business and appreciate every single one of you that have shared my posts, worked with me, recommended me, and supported me in any capacity! Thank you!

For any of you that dream of starting your own business, making a career change or anything else scary…do it! You could be missing out on living a life you’ve been dreaming of! Take the chance!

1 Year Self-Employed! We Made It!

Happy Wednesday, friends!

This week is another huge milestone and one that probably means the most to me!

Today is the one year anniversary of me leaving my 9-5 office job to pursue my dream of working for myself. This is something I never thought would be possible and just a dream that I would talk about but never truly pursue. To leave the comfort of a consistent paycheck is the scariest thing I’ve probably ever done to be honest!

2020 taught us a lot of things and there were a lot of things that accumulated to help me make that decision to leave. I thought if not now then when? When would I take the leap and bet on myself? So after everything we went through in 2020 I got the push I needed and just did it!

It helps that I had the support of my husband and my business coach and my friends and family but I knew even some of them thought I was a little crazy, but here we are 1 year later and I wouldn’t give this rollercoaster up for anything!

No the journey hasn’t been easy AT ALL but all the blood, sweat, and tears have been worth it and will continue to be worth it as I continue to build my brand and my business! I’m blessed that I can work from anywhere at any time. I’m grateful that this year so far I’ve been able to take mental health days when needed and a 7 day vacation with my family without worrying about using all my PTO or what I’m going to come back to once the trip is over. I’m so happy I can have lunch with my dad or take the day off when my mom has the day off, all things I couldn’t do before. I now have the FREEDOM to live a life that I want and am proud of!

I have a long way to go but in the one year I’ve come so far! I make more than I did at my full time job, I live a life that I create and even though it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done I’m so proud I took this step instead of just talking about it the rest of my life! In this first year I also built a course to help other women like myself build a blog that they could monetize whether for a hobby or make it a career! If you want this to be your narrative too sign up for my waitlist HERE to be the first to know when my course is coming back!

I can’t thank y’all enough for being there for me on this ride! It’s just the beginning and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us, because I’m taking y’all with me!
