From Baby Broke to Business Boss: My Unexpected Journey with Andrea Olson

Had my first baby's dad not gotten laid off, I would not have looked into passive income, not have written my ebook. I would have been dependent on him and stuck in a relationship that wasn't good for either of us. And I wouldn't have been able to serve these hundreds of thousands of parents that I've been able to serve. And then now all these moms that I'm coaching. Like, I can't even explain how much that had to happen for me to have needed. Like, I didn't just want to write an ebook. Some people just want to start a business. I had to. We were on food stamps like there was no other choice. And he wasn't making progress as quickly as I'd liked as a new mom. You know, if you're a new mom, you're just like, I really need. Like, everything needs your nesting. And like, am I okay? Am I safe and stable? Can I raise this baby? You know, does he have it? He didn't have it, so I had to have it. You know, like, if I didn't have. If I didn't have to work my butt off the last three years we were together, I wouldn't have reached the revenue levels I reached by accident. I didn't even know that I had reached them. But I was working so hard, just doing a lot of self work, self care, but all in secret, all quietly, all very small so I could be safe doing it. And so, yeah, those really bad things caused really good things to happen.
