My work from home journey started in 2012. I needed to find a way to support myself and two daughters and since I live in a small town with no decent jobs it was pretty much my only option. (Besides working 80 hours per week, of course.)

It was a rocky road at first and took me just about a year to be able to quit my day job and go full-time.

Taking control of my career was, hands-down, one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I won’t lie and say that working from home is a piece of cake or that I haven’t went through rough patches. The truth is getting started took a ton of effort on my part and I’ve went through a few rough patches.

But now I feel like I’m in control.

If I get to the point where I need to make more money I’ll go and secure some freelance clients because I know how. That is job security.

If you’ve been wanting to create your own career, need some guidance, or are just plain ole curios about your options there’s a Summit starting Monday that is jam packed full of awesome people with awesome advice.

What is The Work at Home Summit?

The Work at Home Summit is a six day event with over 45 expert speakers. It runs from January 29^th to February 3^rd. And it’s 100% free.
