I've lit my own damn light! ...finally after too long in dark times π£
After craving change for years I finally found a path that works for me with online income with affiliate marketing
MINDSET
I've worked in the same admin role for nearly 2 decades (& never even enjoyed it) - currently I work part-time & do business bookwork as well as a way to have more flexibility and variety - and it has helped yet I want more...
I considered changing jobs, but I knew what I really craved was freedom & that simply swapping jobs wasn't going to be my solution... I craved a different way of working - of living - I just didn't know how!!
I guess I've always been different & a bit of a dreamer... I believe life is meant to be more than just work & the hamster wheel life - that there has to be more than just THAT π€― that we don't just exist to work our whole lives for a few years of retirement - if we even get there!
My dream for decades now is to travel Australia in our caravan - not rushed, with a time limit, or to be stressed about where or how we'll get work - to not have to be at a certain location on certain days for certain hours - to not have to sacrifice one thing for another (like finances to have more flexibility)!
I hoped to find a way, but doubted there was anything quite like what I wanted... until I found the online affiliate space & it's ticked all the boxes + more. After much review and research, I took the steps to start this online income path as an affiliate - to take back the reins of my life and to really start the physical actions of creating a life I love living! π
I'm still figuring it all out & setting up the foundations for it - incorporating into my life - as now that I've started, I know it's something I will continue to do and expand on {currently I've partnered with 2 companies - one offers digital education courses including the how-to set-up online course that I did - & it has the option of low, high & very high commission programs; + a caravanning & travel accessories online shop with a variety of gifts including Aussie made products} - I'll continue to explore other options that resonate &/or I have benefited from. I love this space has so much variety, independence and flexibility!
At times I can't quite believe I've actually taken this step... I'm more often than not called reserved, shy & quiet - & I am + introverted - but I'm going all in because this is an opportunity to create a life I love, with freedom, flexibility & space to spend my days how I truly want β¨οΈ including more beach time, seeing our country + spending more time with each other & our Nala girl πΎ β¦to me, it's absolutely worth the discomfort of overcoming my fears!
So, that's a little bit about me and how I've gotten to this point - this journey hasn't been easy (confronting my old mindset gunk) yet it's accelerated my healing & opened up so much potential - I'm so glad I'm finally taking action - that I'm finally lighting my own damn path up instead of waiting!
Here's hoping you are too - let me know if any of it resonates with you if you are called to β¨οΈ
Wishing you all the best on your own journey!

So, I haven't really introduced myself and my journey and how I've gotten to this point of making huge changes in my life & really going all in on creating a life I love living β‘οΈ
I'm Cath - Hi!!! And thanks for popping on to read this!
I LOVE mindset & energetics; and have delved into much over the years... my fav is law of attraction & manifestation - especially Abraham Hicks - I know without a doubt that I wouldn't be where I'm at without it, & I'm still always learning! π
I love the beach & country life (well anything in nature); as a kid / teenager I was obsessed with horses then surfing π - I have always been more creative & spiritual than goal or success driven π€·ββοΈ
I've always been drawn to freedom & flexibility yet have felt swamped by the rocky road of life and the years have passed by as I struggled to just try and cope with getting through each day...
I've spent a fair amount of time bouncing off rock bottom and trying to get out of a dark tunnel on and off for most of my life - and hiding it! - plus denying the severity of it to the few who have witnessed or known of my struggles (nerve-wracking to admit & put out there in the online space)!
I've felt ashamed I guess and hoped with a combination of self-healing and waiting things would improve. To a degree they have yet I have gotten to the stage that waiting was becoming unbearable and painful; I needed to take some action - deep down, I knew I wasn't living a life I enjoyed - I felt trapped & stuck...
