My business was on the verge of failing, and it's my fault.
Even though my life has completely changed over the last few months:
- Became one of the fastest growing creators on X
- Quit my job to focus on my business full time
- Sold out all my spots consistently
I had everything I needed...but I fell into a trap.
I got complacent.
Started coasting because I had already hit my goals.
When I hit 5k/mo, I remember telling a friend of mine:
“Why do I need to push on? I have more than enough.”
(It’s true. I consistently save more than half of what I’ve earned)
And as a result, I stopped grinding hard.
To be honest, I kinda lost the drive that pushed me to this point in the first place.
I need that back.
So here’s the new goal:
$25,000/mo by Dec 2025.
$10k seems too boring. 18yos can hit it in months.
$100k is the long term goal. But we’ll get a quarter of the way first.
Will be posting more insights and updates as I go along.
A new chapter begins.

Do you want to use your personal brand to land clients consistently?
If so, my 1:1 Storymarketing program might help.
It's where I show you how to:
➼ Turn your stories into powerful marketing pieces
➼ Write persuasive and memorable narratives that converts
➼ Craft a compelling story-brand that turns cold readers into hot leads
I'm looking for some shiny case studies, so there will be limited spots.
DM me “storymarketing” to see if you’re a good fit.
Limited spots.
