My Life before and now

I used to cry quietly after putting my kids to bed, hoping they wouldn’t hear me. Divorce left me raising three little ones alone. I was working two jobs cleaning offices during the day, waiting tables at night. Some nights, I skipped dinner so my kids could eat. I was exhausted, angry, and scared. One night, after tucking in my youngest, I stumbled on a random YouTube video about Shopify. I didn’t have money or experience, but I did have a reason. I started running my store from my phone, sometimes with my baby in my arms. My first two stores failed badly. But on the third try, selling baby products, I made more in a single day than I used to in a month. That moment changed everything. Fast-forward: I’ve now crossed over $250K in dropshipping sales, quit both jobs, moved us into a better home, and most importantly I’m present for my kids every single day. If you’re in that place where it feels like nothing’s working, please hear me: don’t quit. The breakthrough doesn’t come easy, but it does come. ❤️
