When my kids were small and finances were tight, I had a dream of my husband quitting his job and working from home with me. I dreamed of a house with more space and land and time we could fill on our own terms.
I dreamed of traveling and showing our kids the world.
I dreamed of a homeschool plan that matched my kids’ interests and personalities and allowed them to grow and thrive at their own pace.
I didn’t know how to get there, but I knew one thing: I could grow my side business. I could do my part. I could have chosen to stay stuck and just clip coupons, but instead, I decided to be proactive and do my part to change our situation.
That’s when the journey began. That’s when the dream started to come true. Little by little, I set up systems so I could expand my business but not lose time with my kids. I carefully started hiring people to work for me, so I could multiply my time and effort. Not soon after, I convinced Chris to take a leap of faith and quit his job. Now both of us were working on the company and we grew twice as fast. We added streams of income. We moved to the country. Our kids kept growing up. We were able to travel and explore the world.
Many people ask me: how do you do it? Is it hard to work with your spouse? How on earth can you homeschool AND run a company?
So I mapped out my plan and strategy and now I teach family-owned businesses how to grow and thrive in life and business. It all starts with the right systems: systems for marketing, budgeting, and hiring. You can grow your side business to 6 figures. You just need the right strategy and support.
If you have a dream and you’re just not sure how to map out the plan, let’s connect. I would love to see if I can help. (I’m not for everyone so I’ll let you know ahead of time if I think we are a good fit.)

I believe you can do this. If God put this dream in your heart, then it’s real. You just need the right tools and environment. You don’t have to do this alone!
