I’m debatingggggg teaching what I’ve learned a I’m debatingggggg teaching what I’ve learned about YouTube over the past 4 years so this is my 1st little check to see if you guys would be interested in that??? 

tell me thoughts 🫵💞 pls & thank you!
I spent 2 weeks living + working from a literal 12 I spent 2 weeks living + working from a literal 12th century French castle 🏰 because apparently that’s a thing you can just... do.

this was part of a coworking retreat I joined hosted by @digitalnomadgirls & @chateaucoliving because building a business can be v v lonely — and turns out, sitting around a fireplace with other people also obsessing over Notion dashboards?? wildly healing.

some highlights:
🧚‍♀️ wrote my morning pages while staring out 12th century windows like a reclusive duchess but with wifi
🧚‍♀️ took calls, made content, reviewed team work — all the usual, just with more chandeliers
🧚‍♀️ crafted by the fire, like literally knitting a scarf. who is she???
🧚‍♀️remembered that endless optimization is no good & investing in your creativity is insanely underrated.

also, surprise plot twist: got hit with PMDD for the first time ever while I was there (10/10 do not recommend), but the castle girls made space for that too. having community in those moments?? 😭😭😭

if you’re feeling a little stuck or lonely in your business — this is your sign to change your work environment. work from a castle. or a cabin. or a café. or a park bench. 

your business deserves fresh air and less noise. go find it. 🩵
2024: the year that proved drinking matcha and yap 2024: the year that proved drinking matcha and yapping about small business could actually be a viable career??

ft. my two unpaid interns (cats, still pending HR approval), 200+ new students, actual human hires (dream team fr), and enough matcha to fill a bathtub

(swipe for the actual numbers that still feel surreal)
heya! 🥰 for anyone new here, here’s a little heya! 🥰 for anyone new here, here’s a little peek into my self-employment story:

2016 — 

Fresh out of university & had 0 clue what to do. Started a 6-month corporate internship at minimum wage working 40+ hours. Seriously panicked about having to do this every day for 40+ years. 

Thought something was wrong with me & had a tiny (massive) quarter-life crisis.

Began freelancing in the evenings & weekends at $10/hr in ~desperate~ need to find something (anything) else. It was completely unstrategic, no niche, no idea what I was doing.

2017 — 

Increased my freelancer rates to $15/hr then $20/hr.

Started making enough $ to maybe try it full-time? Made the little (petrifying) leap to do it full-time.

I was booked out as a freelancer a few months after.

Signed my first digital business management (DBM) client — she let me manage all the projects in her agency, her remote team & her back-end systems! 🥰

I was OBSESSED. I had found “My Thing”. We began slow traveling as well! 

2018 — 

Fully embraced the DBM role; I was working with 6-figure clients on project, teams and operations management.

Traveled more and increased my rates to $35/hr.

2019 — 

Signed more clients. Traveled more & increased rates to $50/hr.

Decided to go full nomad & gave up our apartment (so scary as a risk-averse Type-A planner).

2020 — 

Spent 6 months slow traveling in Asia. Helped my clients scale to 7 figures. 

Began creating my first-ever (v scary) solo business (DBM Bootcamp) on the side of freelancing full-time. 

After 200+ hours and 6 months... I officially had a business of my own! 😭

We moved to Prague. Loved it there! 

2021 — 

Let go of all my freelance clients (</3) so I could give my own business a full, proper go. Became a full-time business owner + eNtrEprEneUr.

Also became a wannabe Youtuber & started making videos. Moved to Berlin & love it here! :)

2022 + 2023 —

Adopted 2 kitties. Still get to run my business & make Youtube videos.

Did coaching & consulting on digital products, launches & ops as well. 😌 Got my trademark!

2024 —

Annnd we just hit 10K subscribers on YouTube!! 😭 Time has flown & I’m so excited to see what this year brings. 🤍

The DBM Bootcamp® is an 8-12 week Bootcamp that trains you to plan & manage digital projects, run remote teams, optimize business systems and scale digital businesses alongside entrepreneurs and business owners
