Summary
Alex Fasulo has been featured in CNBC for making six figures a year by writing on Fiverr - perhaps you've seen the article. When she and I first connected, we realized we had a lot in common: quitting our jobs at 22 and building successful writing businesses that we've scaled to 6 figures. We talk about what we've learned along the way, TikTok (and haters), the truth about solopreneurship hustle, and how you can do the same if you feel called.

| 0:37.7 | gritty of, Alex also quit her job when she was 22 years old and she's also a writer who gets |
| 0:44.2 | to travel the world and make her own schedule. Same as me. So I thought it would be epic to have her |
