Quick peek at what’s in the episode:
Through this episode Kelly shares how she had to adjust her mindset and all the people who she had trying to help her learn. People have been trying to tell me this for years but I couldn’t hear it, until I was in a safe space.
When Kelly talks about doubling her income she is only talking about her income not her husbands income. It was not easy work. She shares how even with a supportive spouse when work was becoming too demanding but the financial side wasn’t making sense. There was a breaking point where Childcare became so overwhelming that she was told “you just can’t work…”
Kelly was the only one providing that service. That pushed her from making $500 to $2400 in doula work . She raised the market to $1000 on the low end.
She also shares other tips like how being self employed a tax planner, helped her make most out of her money. Along with that if she didn’t have a client scheduled during her work time then she was working on her business.
