I have a 9-5 job that I adore. ADORE.

But I have plans for CreationDepot too (my side business… that I’ve had since 2008).

So I gave up planning on a typical year, which is why you’re getting this nugget of a podcast in what is nearly March instead of December like everyone else.

I don’t know about you all but December and even January is an absolute mad house around here. With Christmas and New Years, Winter Break, and kid activities (and vacations). So I gave up and said ya know what? We’ll do this when life’s not crazy instead of cramming it all in right now.

And that’s what I did. I think everyone should do this. I had so much more clarity this go around.

In this episode I talk about my income goals:

1. My 9-5 job
2. Selling Digital Products
3. YouTube
4. Webinars
5. Patreon (!?)
6. Websites/Web Clients (the actual freelance work)
7. Selling crud I don’t need while also stop continuing to pay for things I don’t need

As always, thanks for the support! Couldn’t do it without you all!
