In this video you'll see a flashback of some of the ventures I started - some have stuck and some fell by the wayside! Anything is possible - this will show you how easy it can be and it's not a failure if it doesn't work out ... I call it MARKET RESEARCH 🙌 Here's the current situation 🌟 Shopify - didn't stick - it's waiting should I want to revisit. 🌟 YT Cottage Dreams Little Biz - I still have the channel but an unexpected move to the cottage changed my plan! 🌟 Etsy - I still have the store but the current season limits my making - I'm working on this! 🌟 YT StephKaraCreates is "The Little Cottage" this is my currently most creative space 🌟 Skool - I had no idea this time last year that I would be building a creative community here! So who know what the future holds for you.... What have space have you been dreaming about lately?

I've been chatting with @Arriane Aguda one of our Cottagers - she's a virtual assistant with a creative flair! If any of you out there needing a little help, she has a whole list of task she can help with if you don't have time for it. For example - I'm thinking about setting up an insta page just for the little cottage (at the moment my insta is kinda a HOT sloppy mess but I have no time to manage it) Here's her skill set below... Here’s what I she take off your plate: ✨ Admin tasks ✨ Scheduling ✨ Social media uploads ✨ Course & community updates ✨ Document formatting ✨ Systems & organization ✨ General business support ✨ Photo/Video Editing ✨and more...... Think of her as your extra set of hands—keeping things organised, handled properly, and moving forward without the overwhelm. Send her a DM if you’d like to chat about VA support. If not you know a little bit more about what Arriane is all about!

🌿 Did you know your creative gifts can do more than just bring you joy? They can also bring in extra income! It’s entirely possible to turn your passion into a steady little income stream just by getting creative with how you offer it. 🗳️Think outside the box—for instance, I started packaging up little journal-making kits and selling them on Etsy and at weekend markets. Don't underestimate the value of your hobbies!🌟 @Bethany Elle I can give you the credit for reminding me about these little journals
