A Must Read Article

Hey folks,

Those of you who read my posts know that I am the queen of passion. If you haven't read my blogs, or still didn't get that, just take my word for it (or ask my husband, lol). I don't work a 9-5 job, I live on a lovely property, my home is filled with laughter and bliss (most of the time :) and I spend my days doing what I enjoy.

I have also worked hard to create multiple streams of income from a variety of business endeavors (coaching, writing, blogging, etc.). I have the luxury of time on my side. For me, there's no time to rush. I want to create my next stream of income with deep intention and I am find with taking my time to develop it.

However, for those of you who are at the beginning of this journey, even the WA logo says "Turn your passion into a thriving online business." While this is totally possible, there is also a flip side to this coin. I could share my thoughts on this subject because, but rather than re-create the wheel, I encourage you to take like 2 minutes and read this Forbes article:

5 Reasons to Ignore the Advice to Do What You Love

I am in no way attempting to discourage anyone in any way. However, since I am always flitting around like Mary Poppins encouraging people to find their passion and do what they love, I thought it was time to share another perspective. May your day be blessed!

In community,
