Hello. I' reside in the Orlando area of Florida. I work remotely for my corporate gig which pays well but I've been trying in vain to attain other income streams for a year now to have more job security and double-time my retirement fund. I have no problems taking action, although I admit I'm a bit paralyzed at the moment. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to already be earning or on YT for the programs here. But Alex's videos resonated with me. This is what I have done so far. Maybe some of you can relate? 1) 9 months on IG posting twice daily for my personal finance offers. no sales or views or follows. TONS of classes and GPTs I paid for to help solve all the problems. finally shut it down. 2) just finished a freelance copywriting course. have my portfolio and website ready. the lesson on making a pitch list was only 14 minutes long. After 2 hours I have only 3 on companies on my pitch list. I'm supposed to pitch to 5 a day. making the website and portfolio was more fun than the actual copywriting, but it's a valuable skill to have, no doubt. just hard to use for yourself. 3) i've tried marketing what i do for my actual day job. reached out through LI, did Upwork and Fiverr profiles. got as far as 3 interviews for one company that was my only warm lead, but ultimately in my field people want actual positions that fit into what they hire for, and not a freelancer. they do contractors (i'm one now) but through large recruiting firms that employ us. not by a one off person reaching out. 4) i've got a spreadsheet i used to calculate college costs BEFORE applying and all the parents wanted it. i wasn't allowed to sell it in that group but i hired a programmer, had a website, got the thing all ready. no customers. About me: people come to me all the time for natural health advice. hormones. a supplement. some food ingredient. people i haven't heard from in years. my daughter is taking me on a journey personal training me in the gym and getting me counting macros and meal planning. i have quite a story where personal finance is concerned. a stranger walked up to me in a restaurant once when she overheard me giving my sister financial advice on the phone to say how much it helped her. people find my writing hilarious and engaging in social media groups where i'm not selling anything.

After burning out in January, I've really taken a step back to evaluate the past 2+ years on YouTube. I haven't launched a program since 2025, but today I am opening the doors to a group program that I believe is going to be my best yet, because it wasn't build in hustle mode, but intention and reflection mode. Learn more here The program is 3 months long and by the end of it you should be walking out with your first beta program ready to launch. If that seems way too far off for you...it's not, but we don't start there. We start at the beginning. We start with building a channel and business that is sustainable and 100% you. This will be the first time I create a program that is so in depth and highly step-by-step, each week building on the next, I will leave no stone onturned and if you decide to join, I know 2027 will be starting off strong with this foundational work we will be doing. I'm truly excited about this program. Seats are limited because I want to make sure you all get the attention and care you need AND because this is a "new life work balanced Alexa" who no longer is willing to burn out for money. There will be deep lessons and assignments every week + live calls for implementation and Q&A. The calls will be alternating between 8:00 EST and 11:00AM EST every other week to accomodate different time zones and all calls will be recorded and replays available. It's going to be epic! I feel like it's a college level course for growing your brand and business with YouTube! Woohooo! Let's do this! I cannot wait to see some of you on the inside. You can learn more about the program here. If you have any questions - feel free to ask them below! xoxo Alexa
