LAUNCHING A NAPTIME EMPIRE™ : MY STORY [NE 001]

I recorded this ep in my closet.


With my five-year-old standing outside the door, half-eaten cheese roll-up in hand.


THIS is #naptimeempires life, my friend.


We’re kicking off the show with MY story – which feels a little weird, not gonna lie, but when my buddy Morgan MacDonald proposed the idea – I knew she was onto something.


I’ve shared my story on lots of OTHER people’s podcasts, so it makes sense to have a home base here on NE. Good to get it out there for you to chew on (so you can tell me what you’d like to know MORE about!).


I’ll be the first to admit – the highlight reel sounds a bit online marketing-y flashy pants.

How military wife + toddler mom went from making $14/hour to generating over $1 million in revenue in under 3.5 years.

(Did that make you roll your eyeballs or what? ;))


The cool and crazy thing about that is:


I genuinely have no idea where the next milli is coming from.


I’m in a full on biz puberty transition phase right now, babystepping my way through divine inspiration, and I’m MORE than happy to share the messy, uncertain journey with you as I go.


For today, though, I want to kick the show off with the FULL run down on how I made it to this point – from park ranger and part-time college professor making paychecks of the heart (i.e. not a comma in sight) to a Naptime Empire™ builder with a (much) bigger dream.

IN THIS CONVO, WE COVER:

  • Nitty gritty details of how I launched my service-based business while momming a toddler with two part-time jobs
  • The surprising truth about $21k in my first 6 weeks
  • The biggest blocks I had at each step of the way (+ how I moved through em)
  • What creating an online course made possible for me
  • My biggest mistake / regret in that whole process ^^
  • How what I enjoyed the LEAST about a brief stint in network marketing is now one of my FAVE perks of my current business
  • My failproof two-step launch plan (really… it works every time.)
  • My vision for Naptime Empires™

THINGS I SAID

When you show up as you are, you'll always attract your dream clients

That's how it all got started; it was just that decision to make a decision.

When I get a hunch and do the work - that's when the magic happens.
