How I make money online as a single, homeschool mother

In this video I talk about the subtle things people don't tell you about increasing your income. Like the stuff you actually need to hear. People ask WHAT to do to make money, but to me, the 'what' is the easy part. You could literally do anything. The specific HOW is much more nuanced! *Apologies for some redundancies in the video, since I promised to get out a video in 2 days, I was rushing when I edited it. I hope it still overall was a good video. I also wanted to give you this snapshot, even though 2023 isn't over, so you can understand where I am in the home buying process as a self employed person with variable income. I'm still working on that. Good luck in your journey. I would recommend checking out the Small Business Administration's website, because they tell you what exactly to do to build a business. Start with the "Business Guide" and really go through the "10 Steps to Start Your Business" then the "Plan Your Business".

Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Making money is not the same as keeping it there is a reason why investments aren't well taught in schools, the examples you gave are well stationed, the market crisis gave me my first millions, people shy away from hard times, I embrace them.. well at least my advisor does lol.

I loved your point that you started doing marketing when you _didn't want to do marketing,_ and it wasn't at all what you were passionate about, but that it was a _character_ thing to do it anyway, because it would benefit you and your kids. That's such an important point. This is about our KIDS, and about financial freedom -- if you're not willing to do _whatever_ it takes (within legality) to make that happen, you won't get far.

@@shaquitamuse25 I previously worked in insurance (other lines, like home/auto) & started working for a life insurance broker at home. It was just natural when life started drying up to move to Medicare & use my health license. You need to contract with an FMO (field marketing organization), because carriers won’t appoint you when you’re small, and the FMO helps you get started & help you set up certain things. You need to be licensed, I recommend health & life license. Then find an FMO. Get insurance & an LLC (I used Northwest for $130 state fees were $100 of that), set up a website (GoDaddy has 1st year $35) & then get leads to write. Leads can be free if you do educational events or community events. (Leads are people interested in buying insurance). If you don’t have a physical location, you can do it over phone or meet them at a coffee shop if local. 😊

My children are adults now but I wonder if there is a home school community. There should be one where parents who home school can maybe once a week meet up for a field trip (learn/social) so the children get a chance to have the best of both worlds. Then maybe do a monthly whole day event. If that doesn't exist maybe someone can pioneer it.

My original plan was to take my clients on evenings and weekends, when my boyfriend is home with my son, so I can continue earning my self employment income. But, I recently injured my shoulder from overuse, therefore decided to take a break from massage until I fully heal. I might be eligible for a government program to help me with getting some money, but I feel discouraged about the fact that my profession relies on my body being in top shape to operate. I've looked for alternative ways to earn money, so this video is really helpful in staying positive that there might be another way. Thank you.

I love your business plan because you’re not only teaching but you’re doing many other things you enjoy, and also they give you a lot of income. I always thought about as I am growing up how I want a career, but have one where I can still do things I enjoy aswell as be flexible in what I do so I can spend time with my future family.

Love the discussion. You are so inspiring and I'm hoping that millions of young families watch this vlog. I'm retired. From early in the game I held good paying jobs and for most of my working life I had what would be considered "well" paying jobs. Nonetheless I found it necessary to do get a second source of income in my early years in order to acquire a home very early. I toiled away at manufacturing uniforms, drapery and linen and that provided financial advantage to buy a nice townhouse in an upscale area. That was the start because I was able to flip that property, and kept flipping until I was able to provide the best education and lifestyle for my daughter. And "best" didn't mean overly lavish or excessive. My point is that I really couldn't rely on a single job to get ahead. By the time I was 36, I was back to a single job, but at that point it was a high paying, high demanding executive job and I couldn't have handled side jobs. The additional income in my early years did pay off well.

As I look back when my children were in elementary, it would have been nice to have the availability of multiple subject work, short reviews and tests following each completed subject. If parents could (most own or have access to labtops or computers) buy reading & math software with post quizzes, test or exams, perhaps children could enhance their skills greatly.

Can you please explain your opinion about these school cutoffs? My state is the last state in the nation to implement a September 1 cutoff that goes into effect in 2024 and it affects my now 3 year old daughter (October baby). When they implement these cutoffs, it makes me feel as though they are saying that the children born in the last 4 months of the year are too “dumb” to go to school with the children born in the first 8 months of the year they were born. That’s really insulting. When I was going to school, my friend and also the class saludatorian was born in October of the same year I was born (June). And I was not a good kid but she did motivate me to want to do better in school. I don’t think they should be using birthdays to determine academic success. That’s why I’m going the homeschool route with my daughters.

Congrats on living life on your terms! Fellow Howard County MD resident too, love this area but housing on the expensive side like you mentioned which I'm happy to pay-- safety + good schools are paramount for me. I'm curious to know where you found a 2br for $1300 😉

I hear what she’s saying, but it’s very important to check with guidelines because in Texas once you put your child in school, there is no pulling them out to homeschool

Hey 👋 I didn’t realize you were here in Columbia md. Just moved to Columbia a week ago. I have a 3y/0 and a 6 months old. I am exactly where you were - trying to start a business and planning an exit plan so I can homeschool my girls. I will definitely check out your classes. If you don’t mind connecting with me, I will be very grateful.

How were you able to successfully put your kids in school for a couple of months and remove them from school? I got to know

You mean legally? You can pull your kids in and out of school as many times as you want in the United States. If you keep doing it, they may call child protective services, and your child would probably be very upset, but there’s no law on when you can take your child out of school or put them into homeschool.
