This year I made a mistake and my blog was deleted off the face of the internet. Everything I had built over the past eight years was erased overnight.
My credit card on file had expired and apparently if a new card isn’t added within 30 days, they delete all your data.
After grieving for a few days I was reminded of what Ecclesiastes 3:1 in the Bible states, “There is a time for everything… a time to tear down and a time to build”… so I got to rebuilding.
I used the opportunity to build my blog back up with a solid SEO foundation from the start utilizing everything that I’ve learned and it’s since skyrocketed in Google’s rankings.
I also got to SIMPLIFY my blog and CONDENSE everything down to make it as easy for you to start as possible, which has been super exciting for me!
I come from a family of professors so teaching is in my blood so to create this ULTIMATE BLOGGING RESOURCE has been incredibly fun for me!
If you think blogging is dead or it’s too late to start a blog…
Let me tell you, it’s possible.
I did it before and I’ve done it again.
I’ve helped thousands of people monetize their first blogs and I can’t wait to help you create that profitable blog you’ve always dreamed of.
My Story
Before I started blogging, I was working at my dream job in the wedding industry. But everything changed after I received a devastating phone call from my boyfriend (now husband) telling me that his brother had been murdered.
Shock and disbelief washed over me. We had just spent Christmas together in Honduras, and this was the last photo we took as a family. I felt lost, angry, and didn’t know what to do… all I knew was that I had to go to Honduras to support my him and his family.
I called my boss to request time off for the funeral, but his response was shocking, he said “NO… because it would affect sales.” In that moment, I realized I was nothing more than a dollar sign to the company.
So, I quit, packed up my life in Chicago, and moved to Honduras. What I didn’t anticipate was how difficult the transition would be. I began to feel incredibly isolated. I had moved to a dangerous country, left my home, my friends, and my job, and I didn’t speak Spanish at the time.
My Growth
In search of an outlet, I started LadyBossBlogger and within a week, to my surprise, I began monetizing it! Prior to, I had no idea blogs could even make money!
A year later, the Huffington Post (aka Thrive Global) reached out to interview me about my blog and the rapid organic growth I had achieved.
Fast forward and I had worked as a content creator for major companies like Amazon, Samsung, and Best Buy, amassed over 300,000 followers across my social media platforms, and been featured in more than 500 media outlets, 5 magazines, 3 books, and spoken at several conferences in front of thousands of people.
My Pivot
However, during my most outwardly “successful” moments, I felt the emptiest inside.
I was chasing fame and money and had accomplished much of what I set out to achieve, but something essential was missing—something that money couldn’t buy: PURPOSE.
When your life revolves around the next achievement, it becomes meaningless because you’re always pursuing something new, which constantly eludes you, leaving you unsatisfied.
While it’s important to have goals and strive for personal excellence, pursuing everything solely for your own benefit only leads to fleeting success and happiness. What I found was that lasting fulfillment can only be found in a deeper connection with God.
In 2020, God graciously took over my life and provided me with a new vision, mission, and focus. I have stepped down as the CEO of my life and assigned that role to God, becoming His CMO instead!
The Charity
A portion of all proceeds from LadyBossBlogger is donated to The Micah Project, a ministry and home for street boys in Honduras.
This charity holds a special place in my heart because my husband was once one of those boys.
Additionally, the blog was founded on the property of The Micah Project when I first moved, and we even got married there!
We try to spend at least a month each year there with the boys to help out with the ministry.
This year I had the opportunity to help several of the boys learn how to market their business ideas and also helped revamp Micah’s social media platforms, which was super fun.
The People
On the Enneagram, I’m a 3 (Achiever) wing 2 (Helper), which means achievement for me is tied to helping people.
If you win, I win.
Your success matters to me.
My mission is to help as many people as possible start the blog of their dreams.
