Every entrepreneur's journey is unique and filled with unexpected turns, challenges, and discoveries. For me, the path to building a business was not a straightforward one. It began in a rather unexpected place - during one of the most challenging seasons of my life. But it was through these experiences that I found my true passion and calling in business. Today, I want to take you behind the scenes and share the story of how my business evolved from network marketing to a love for digital marketing, content strategy, and blogging.
From Infertility to a New Business Journey:
My entrepreneurial journey began in the middle of our infertility journey. As I sought healthier, natural products for our home - hoping to create an environment that supported our health and fertility—a friend introduced me to a line of natural cleaning products, essential oils, and clean beauty items. Initially, my interest was purely personal. I wanted to try these products and see if they made a difference in our lives. But once I started using them, I realized I had found something special—something worth sharing with others. And so, my first steps into the world of network marketing began.
While I am no longer a business partner with that company, I still use and love their products. That experience opened the door to a world of entrepreneurship that I hadn’t anticipated.
The Early Challenges of Network Marketing:
When I first started in network marketing, I felt pretty alone. It was a brand new business world for me, and I was completely out of my element. Diving in, I was eager to learn as much as I could, but it was a lonely journey. For years, I struggled to understand how to build a team, collaborate with others, and trust in the process. Working independently was normal for me, and it took time to learn how to lean on others and truly collaborate. Despite these challenges, I kept going, driven by the desire to figure things out and make a difference.

Discovering a Passion for Blogging:
Throughout this journey, my love for writing never waned. I found myself drawn to Pinterest, where I would read various blogs on topics like journaling, self-care, healthy living, and personal development. The more I read, the more I realized that blogging was an avenue I wanted to explore. As a little girl, I used to write short stories in my Tiffany-blue diary, and blogging felt like a natural extension of that childhood passion. It became clear to me that writing needed to be a part of my business, and blogging was the perfect way to integrate that love.

A Gradual Shift to Digital Marketing and Content Strategy:
The transition from network marketing to focusing on digital marketing and content strategy was gradual. While I still hold deep respect for network marketing and remain involved, my passion has expanded to include digital marketing, content creation, and blogging. I became fascinated with funnels, lead magnets, and the idea of creating free resources and mini-offerings for my followers and subscribers. It felt like a natural evolution—combining my love for creativity, writing, and teaching with practical tools that could help others.

Trusting God with the Journey:
Through it all, my faith in God has been my anchor. Trusting Him with this journey has not always been easy—it requires daily surrender. But as long as He fills me with passion for this work, I will keep going. My mission is to spread light and encouragement to others, and I trust that He will guide me every step of the way.

The Creative Joy of Course Creation:
Course creation has been another unexpected joy in my business journey. What started as a fun, creative outlet has become a meaningful way to pour value into my followers and clients. It's an extension of my passion for teaching and creating, allowing me to share what I've learned and help others on their business journeys.
Consistency and Collaboration - Lessons from Network Marketing:
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned from my time in network marketing is the importance of consistency. Showing up as my real, genuine, and kind self has been key to building trust and connections. I’ve also learned the value of collaboration - doing business with others, asking for help, and learning from others. These lessons have carried over into every aspect of my business today.
