Summary

The FIRST online course I ever paid for back in 2015 and the crazy thing that happened next… ya ready?

Before all of *this* I was just a wedding photographer, trading time for money, being a weekend warrior, with hardly anyone on my email list trying to figure out how to be happy, how to create a business that could run while I rested, and how to be successful working for myself in my PJs.

And then I threw my credit card at the course after sitting in on a webinar and I committed myself fully to the program. Now, I’m really proud of the fact that I’m one of the success stories... my business flourished because of this mentor’s teachings, and we’re now we’re great pals to boot.

In today’s episode, I’ll walk you through how one course changed things for me and how I approach taking online courses so I get results every single time. I’ll share how I went from an eager student starting at the bottom to one of the greatest success stories of all time for a mentor who turned into a dear friend. Press play right now.
