Last year I was teaching thousands of women how to live frugally. How to save money. How to use coupons. I owned and ran one of the most popular frugal living/couponing blogs in Canada, with over 10,000 unique daily visitors and an average of $10,000 a month in revenue. I loved it for a long time. And then, priorities changed. I felt the need to live better, live bigger. I wanted to stop spending hours clipping coupons every week. I wanted to stop eating processed, crappy food, just to save a few bucks. Couponing had taken over my life and I wanted my life back. Not only that, but I wanted to do what I was truly passionate about - teach other women how to build big online businesses and make a ton of cash doing work they love. So, I just up and quit, without much thought. I hired an amazing tribe of women to run the site for me, so I still own it, and I still make good money from it, but I no longer have to deal with the day to day aspect of blogging, promoting and involving myself in things I am no longer interested in, such as saving $0.50 off a bag of popcorn. Here’s how things went down after I made the decision to leave my current “job” and do what I really wanted to do: September 2014 - Handed over the couponing/frugal living site to my team. Started dreaming about the coaching business I wanted to have. Early October 2014 - Came up with a plan for a group coaching program...
