Hi, My name is Su.
Welcome to my website.
My story and how I got here!
It all started when unexpectedly I found myself a single mom with two small children to raise.
The compromising started then! Working was essential but so was spending valuable time with my family.
I embarked on a path of working several jobs at once around my family.
Rose pollinating ( A fantastic job! pollinating roses in a massive green house while getting a tan) during school hours then telesales (not so great) in the evening from the kitchen.
Farm work in school hours then Kitchen work in the late evening……
The list went on and was totally exhausting! but I did get time with my girls. The pay however was always basic and everything was a massive financial juggle with no room for any luxuries and a lot of going without! But my girls were happy and that was my goal.
Then I thought I had cracked it! I went back to university; studied what I loved most, art and became a secondary school teacher.
Now I thought I had the perfect balance, holidays off and better pay. I hadn’t, after 8 years I had the creeping realization that all the dreams I’d had years ago were never going to happen.
I had always wanted:
- To be an artist
- To travel to interesting places around the word with my family
- To work for myself
- I wasn’t achieving any of these but I just knew that there must be a way that I could!
When nothing is going right go left
So I started looking
It was while I was researching how I could profitably sell my artwork on line I came across affiliate marketing and a program called Wealthy affiliate.
It was free to join…. forever! And you have the option to upgrade with no pressure if and when you decide it is right for you. There is an awesome community who are constantly helping you.
You can be a complete newbie and still achieve success in a field which you are passionate about.
So did I jump straight in ? No.
I researched some more, read endless reviews looked at other programs, put it off, got scared, thought about it some more. Then in a brave moment, after deciding this was by far the best option I had looked at I took the plunge and signed up for the free membership.
And The Journey begins
This was my biggest surprise. Everything I had read was above board there was no scam! My journey had begun.
At first, I was a little overwhelmed with the amount of information I was given but after settling into it I soon realised it’s all up to you. You go at a pace that suits you and can go back and re visit the tutorials as often as you need. In addition to this there is a strong community of like-minded people who are always there to help.
So now I am a full time artist, using my creativity and training the way I want to and loving it. I get the added bonus of adding new skills to my arsenal and developing my own business through Wealthy Affiliate.
Caring Is Sharing
I truly believe when you’ve found something good share it, if you can help someone help them.
If you are prepared to invest your time, follow advise given by experts who really know what they are doing and know that success does not happen overnight this is the place to be.
I’m on an awesome journey and hope you will join me.
