  • My Focus Now: Health, Income, Impact & Inclusion

    If you caught my last post, you know I’ve recently made a pivot—and I’m leaning into something that feels more aligned than ever before. I wanted to share what that looks like and what you can expect from me moving forward as I focus on four key areas: health, income, impact, and inclusion.

    These aren’t just buzzwords for me—they’re the foundation for how I live, work, and support others.

    🧠 Health: The Foundation of It All

    As we get older, our priorities shift—and for many of us, health becomes one of the biggest ones. I’ve noticed more people becoming health-conscious, paying closer attention to what they eat, how they move, and what they allow into their bodies. And yet, I still see people unknowingly consuming products loaded with toxins, plastics, and acidic compounds that compromise their immune system and create environments in the body where harmful bacteria and parasites thrive.

    The worst part? So many people feel tired or off and think it’s just normal. But it’s not. These subtle but persistent symptoms are often a result of toxic overload—something that’s preventable with the right awareness and choices.

    One of the things I’m passionate about is helping people choose better—for their bodies, their homes, and their long-term health.

    💸 Income: Creating Real Solutions with Real Products

    Let’s be honest: we all want more financial breathing room. Whether it’s to travel more, spend time with family, or simply stop living paycheck to paycheck. But instead of selling generic “courses about how to sell a course,” I focus on something real: products that solve real problems.

    I show people how to create multiple streams of income by offering wellness solutions they use and believe in. No fluff. No hype. Just honest, duplicatable steps that start with helping others.

    The truth is: if you’re reading this, you already have what it takes to build online income. The tools are available, and you don’t have to do it alone. What it takes is an open mind, a willingness to learn, and most importantly—action.

    🌍 Impact: When You Align with What You Believe

    For me, the money has never been the main driver—it’s always been the impact. There’s something powerful about using your time and talents to create meaningful change in the lives of others. That could mean introducing someone to a product that helps with their energy, mindset, or health… or simply showing them a new way to create income for their family.

    But to have a lasting impact, it has to mean something to you. It should feel like a mission, a calling—something you’d still talk about even if no one was watching. That’s the kind of purpose that keeps you going when things get hard. That’s what I aim to model, and help others discover too.

    🤝 Inclusion: Accessibility Is Not Optional

    As a Deaf entrepreneur, husband, and dad, I live with a daily understanding of how often things are designed without inclusion in mind. Accessibility—especially for the Deaf community—often comes as an afterthought. But it shouldn’t.

    That’s why part of my work involves creating and advocating for accessible content in ASL and encouraging companies to prioritize interpretation and inclusion as the standard, not the exception.

    My deeper mission is to empower Deaf parents to create freedom on their own terms—freedom of time, location, and finances—without sacrificing access to the tools and resources they need.

    ⸻

    Where I’m Going from Here

    Right now, I’m investing more into email marketing and long-form ASL content—two things that allow me to create lasting value without being stuck on the content creation hamster wheel.

    Email gives me a direct line to connect, educate, and inspire—on my own terms. And I’m experimenting (as I write this!) with what works best. It’s a process of trial and error, but that’s the part I love. It’s flexible, creative, and gives me the freedom to adapt as I go.

    I’m also working on building a video series in American Sign Language to make my content more accessible to the Deaf community. I’m leaning toward hosting it on YouTube—at least for now. My goal is to create a space where others can learn, grow, and connect with content that actually reflects them.

    If you find any of this helpful—or if you’re navigating your own pivot, building something new, or simply want to be part of a community that values health, income, impact, and inclusion—I’d love to connect with you.

    Let’s build something better, together.

  • Should You Start a Job, Online Business, Side Hustle—Or Pivot Entirely?

    If you’ve been following my journey for a while, you probably know I wear a few hats.

    I’ve built an online business where I sell health products, offer ASL translation services, and provide access to an all-in-one SaaS platform that helps manage everything you need for running an online business. Like many solopreneurs, my work spans services, freelance projects, and contracted opportunities. It’s not always predictable—but it’s mine.

    Lately, I’ve been leading weekly team trainings with a group of Deaf individuals who are launching their own online businesses while still working full-time jobs. It’s been a powerful experience. Every session teaches me something new—not just about business, but about myself. The process of guiding others has deepened my own understanding and helped sharpen the skills needed to grow and sustain something meaningful.

    But let me be real with you—recently, things slowed down.

    Leads dried up. Engagement dropped. The usual momentum just wasn’t there.

    So I did something a lot of entrepreneurs are hesitant to admit: I pivoted.

    And that pivot came in a few different forms.

    One of the biggest shifts? I hopped off the content creation hamster wheel. Constantly churning out content across platforms was exhausting and unsustainable. Instead, I started investing more into email marketing—building deeper, more intentional relationships through direct communication.

    At the time of writing this, I’m still in the thick of it. Testing. Tweaking. Trying different sequences and messages to see what truly resonates. It’s a bunch of trial and error—but honestly, that’s what excites me. The ability to stay creative, adapt, and connect with people in more meaningful ways is exactly why I love building online.

    On top of email marketing, I’m also working on creating long-form videos in ASL. I’m still exploring the best platform to house them, but I’m leaning toward YouTube—that’s probably where I’ll start. Making my content accessible to the Deaf and signing community is important to me. I want to serve those who’ll benefit from it most. And if you find value in it while building your own path, I’d love to connect with you. I believe in collaboration and lifting each other up to make a collective impact. If that resonates with you—let’s connect.

    Another unexpected pivot? A job offer.

    Here’s the twist: the job was rooted in the exact same skill set I’ve developed over years as a solopreneur. Communication, project management, creative strategy—all of it aligned. More importantly, the company’s mission matched my values and the impact I want to create in the world. It felt like a win-win.

    It’s remote. It’s flexible. And it gives me the financial cushion I needed during what felt like a famine season in my business. To be honest, the mental break from constantly being in hustle mode has been a relief. I can breathe again. Regroup. Re-strategize.

    And that’s the beauty of being a solopreneur in today’s world—we can move fast. We can shift direction without the red tape. We can adapt.

    Because if we don’t pivot when necessary, we risk burning out—or worse, becoming irrelevant. It’s like the dinosaurs. (Okay, hear me out.) They didn’t adapt, and well… they’re gone. A more modern example? Blockbuster. They had a massive lead in the home video industry but failed to evolve when the streaming revolution hit. Meanwhile, companies that did adapt—like Netflix—thrived.

    Being nimble is a competitive advantage.

    So if you’re at a crossroads wondering what’s next for you—whether it’s launching a side hustle, starting an online business, taking a flexible job, or combining them all—I want to say this:

    There’s no one-size-fits-all.

    Sometimes the smartest move is to stay the course.
    Sometimes the wisest decision is to pivot.
    And sometimes the most empowering thing you can do… is both.

    Whatever path you choose, make sure it aligns with who you are and where you want to go. Because freedom isn’t just about entrepreneurship—it’s about designing a life that actually works for you.

  • Change Your Environment, Change Your Life

    I’ve been working on building my online business for a while now across different social media platforms and in other ways too.

    Even though my follower count hasn’t grown much and the likes on my posts are still pretty quiet, something way more meaningful has been happening. I’ve shared video messages that really resonated with people—and they’ve been reaching out.

    I’ve had real conversations in the DMs, and I’ve been able to support more people. Some are now building businesses that fit into their life—instead of constantly trying to fit their life around their work.

    As I’ve gone through this journey as a solopreneur, I’ve shifted my focus. I’m no longer chasing numbers—I’m just showing up, having honest conversations, and helping people without expecting anything back.

    And you know what? That shift has led to real connections and trust. Both personally and professionally.

    I’ve also become much more mindful of who I let into my space. I avoid the constant complainers, the gossipers, and the negative energy. I choose to surround myself with people who have goals. People who take action. People who solve problems.

    And throughout this process, I’ve realized something big:

    It’s not just mindset that changes your life.

    It’s not just willpower.

    It’s not just habits.

    It’s your environment.

    Your home.

    Your workspace.

    Your friends.

    Your circle.

    Those things shape your entire life.

    That’s why I’m leaning hard into this truth:

    Change your environment, change your life.

    Lately, I started a community for like-minded folks who are looking to make a shift—whether that’s building an online business or side hustle to create more freedom, or simply making more conscious choices about their health.

    A lot of people in the group are health-conscious and looking for better, high-quality health products for themselves, their families, spouses, or kids.

    If this speaks to you—if you’re in a season where you’re looking for a change—I’d love to connect.

    Reach out. Let’s chat.

    Whether it’s business, health, or just creating a life that actually feels good, I’m here for the conversation.

  • Let’s Talk About Debt, Assets, and Why Building an Online Business is an Investment — Not a Free Ride

    Within the past 2 years, I’ve helped a number of Deaf individuals with full-time jobs build online businesses. Along the way, I’ve had many conversations with curious leads who wanted to know what I do and how they could get started. One common misunderstanding I’ve encountered is the idea that starting an online business is free — especially when people read terms like “$0 down” or “OPM” (Other People’s Money).

    Let’s clear this up. While you can start with $0 down upfront, that doesn’t mean it’s free. Just like buying a car, a couch, or a new phone — high-ticket items often come with payment plans. You might not pay anything the first 30 or 60 days, or you might get 0% interest for 6 months. But let’s be honest: it still costs money.

    The difference is how we view these purchases. Most people willingly go into debt for things that don’t make them money — cars, furniture, entertainment tech — and pay them off by working more hours. These are what I call bad debts: liabilities that cost you time and money without giving anything back.

    Now, good debt is different. It’s still a financial commitment, but one that helps you generate income. For example, a car used for Uber or delivery is a business asset. The same car used just to drive to work is a liability. A phone used for Netflix is a cost. A phone used to run an online business is an asset.

    The key is cashflow. If your investment creates income, it’s an asset. And that’s the opportunity I’m sharing with you today.

    When you work with me, you’re not just buying a product — although the product itself supports your health and the environment. You’re also getting:

    • A proven online business system
    • My personalized coaching and mentorship
    • Access to a supportive community

    This is more than an online course with pre-recorded lessons. I walk with you one-on-one. I give you feedback, accountability, and direct guidance to help you succeed — because I’ve seen too many people invest in generic programs that left them confused, frustrated, and broke.

    You don’t need experience. You do need commitment.

    That’s when fear kicks in. And I’ve seen it all:

    • “What if I fail?”
    • “My wife isn’t sure.”
    • “My friend said it’s a scam.”

    These doubts are normal. But ask yourself: Are you afraid of the opportunity or are you afraid of your own potential?

    I won’t sugarcoat it: success takes work. Like learning to ride a bike, you might fall a few times. But once you gain momentum, you’ll build confidence, skill, and eventually freedom.

    Imagine:

    • Financial freedom – paying your bills without stress
    • Time freedom – earning more without working longer
    • Location freedom – working from anywhere in the world
    • Health freedom — feel energized, clear-minded, and in control of your physical and mental well-being.
    • Mental freedom — break free from stress, anxiety, and overwhelm so you can focus on what truly matters.

    All starting from one decision — to invest in your growth.

    If you’re serious about change — in your health, finances, or life — and you’re ready to take action, then let’s talk. I only work with people who are ready. If that’s you, book a call. Let’s explore the options and map out your path to freedom.

  • Measuring and Celebrating Progress

    Building a business is a journey filled with challenges, lessons, and milestones worth celebrating. Over the past few months, I’ve learned that progress isn’t just about hitting big goals; it’s about recognizing the small wins along the way, tracking your growth, and staying grateful for every step forward.

    How I Measure Progress

    To ensure I’m on the right track, I focus on these key metrics:

    • Leads Generated: I monitor how many potential clients I attract weekly through webinars, email campaigns, and social media.
    • Revenue Growth: I evaluate monthly income compared to past months, keeping an eye on steady growth rather than quick spikes.
    • Conversion Rates: I track how many leads turn into clients, which helps me refine my process and ensure my system is working.
    • Engagement: I look at responses to my content—comments, shares, and messages—to gauge what’s resonating with my audience.

    Tracking these metrics gives me a clear picture of what’s working and where I need to adjust. Are you unsure how to track your own progress? Let’s connect and create a system that works for your goals.

    The Importance of Celebrating Wins

    Success isn’t just about the big milestones; it’s about celebrating every step forward. Whether it’s gaining a new client, completing a project ahead of schedule, or receiving positive feedback from someone I’ve helped, I make sure to take a moment to acknowledge it.

    Recently, I hit a personal milestone: completing my 90-day crash course in high-ticket sales for the Deaf community. Seeing the first round of participants share their transformations has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey.
    What’s a recent win you’re proud of? Drop it in the comments below, or message me—I’d love to celebrate with you!

    Lessons from Failures

    Not every plan goes perfectly. I’ve had launches that didn’t attract as much attention as I hoped or strategies that didn’t yield results. But every failure shaped my approach:

    • I learned to pivot quickly and stay agile.
    • I realized that mindset is everything. When something doesn’t go as planned, I ask, What can I learn from this?
    • I discovered the value of being consistent. Even when the results aren’t immediate, staying the course builds momentum over time.

  • Overcoming Challenges as a Solopreneur: Staying Resilient and Focused

    Building a business as a solopreneur is incredibly rewarding, but it’s not without its challenges. From finding clients to managing growth, I’ve learned that the road to success isn’t always smooth. It’s paved with lessons, setbacks, and moments that test your determination. Here, I’ll share some of the obstacles I’ve faced, what I’ve learned, and how I stay motivated to keep going.

    The Biggest Challenges I’ve Faced

    1. Finding Clients and Building a Network
    Starting out, one of my biggest hurdles was finding clients who trusted me with their goals. As a Deaf coach, I initially thought I’d face extra barriers, but I turned that into my unique selling point. I used platforms like social media, email marketing, and referrals to establish connections and credibility.

    • Take Radical Ownership: Success doesn’t come from simply following advice—it comes from mindset, agility, and persistence.
    • Mindset Is Key: With the right mindset, you can turn every setback into an opportunity to grow.

  • Managing Your Time and Energy as a Solopreneur

    One of the biggest challenges of being a solopreneur is finding balance. Between work, family, and self-care, it can feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day. But as someone who’s walked this path, I’ve learned that managing time and energy effectively isn’t just about productivity—it’s about living in alignment with your values.

    Balancing Work, Family, and Self-Care

    The reason I started my business was to create a life where I could spend more quality time with my family while building financial freedom. That vision has always been my anchor. To keep everything in balance, I prioritize my tasks by asking myself:

    1. Does this move me closer to my goals?
    2. Does this support my ability to spend more time with family?

    Strategies I Use to Stay Balanced:

    • Time Blocking: I dedicate specific hours to work, family, and personal downtime. My mornings are for focused work, afternoons are for family, and evenings are for unwinding.
    • Batching Tasks: Content creation, client calls, and administrative work are grouped into blocks so I can stay in the zone.
    • Non-Negotiable Self-Care: Whether it’s a 15-minute meditation, a walk, or simply unplugging for family dinner, I guard this time fiercely.

    If you’re feeling overwhelmed, take the first step today: Identify one task you can batch or block in your calendar to make your week smoother.

    Staying Productive Without Burning Out

    Burnout is a real risk when you’re wearing all the hats. Early on, I made the mistake of saying “yes” to everything—working late nights, overcommitting, and underestimating how much rest I needed. That led to exhaustion and even missed opportunities because I wasn’t fully present.

    What Changed?

    I started focusing on quality over quantity.

    • Set Boundaries: I stopped overloading my schedule and created clear work hours.
    • Automated Repetitive Tasks: Tools like email automation freed up mental space for higher-impact work.
    • Reframed Rest as a Productivity Tool: When I rest, I show up better for my business, clients, and family.

    Are you ready to reclaim your energy? Start by identifying one boundary you need to set. It could be as simple as setting a daily work cutoff time.

    A Peek Into My Daily Routine

    Here’s what a typical day looks like for me:

    • 5:30 AM: Morning tea, prayer and meditation, workout, reviewing my priorities for the day.
    • 7:00 AM – 9:00 AM: Family time—helping with breakfast, school prep, or just connecting.
    • 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM: Focused work (e.g., coaching calls, content creation).
    • 12:30 PM – 2:30 PM: Admin tasks, strategy planning, or recording videos.
    • 3:30 PM – 5:00 PM: Break and decompress. This could mean a walk, a workout, or quiet time.
    • 5:30 PM: Dinner with the family, followed by downtime.

    On some days, things don’t go as planned, and that’s okay. Flexibility is key—what matters is focusing on what’s most important.

    Lessons Learned from Failure

    I used to work for a company where I had to grind through 12-hour days to meet unrealistic quotas with minimal commissions. The leadership and management were going through their own challenges, and eventually, the entire industry faced mass layoffs. It felt like everything hit the fan at once.

    The company clearly had other goals and priorities, and they made it evident that employees were expendable. What I learned from this experience was eye-opening: companies will not take accountability for their lack of leadership. When their vision changes, they will drop you if you no longer align with their direction.

    That experience fueled my decision to build a scalable business that reflects my values and puts family first. I didn’t want my livelihood tied to someone else’s shifting priorities.

    Moments of Inspiration and Motivation

    My biggest motivator is imagining the life I’m building for my family. Every time I hear from a client who’s experienced life-changing results, it reaffirms why I’m doing this. For example, one Deaf parent I coached recently shared how they finally had enough income to work fewer hours at their job and spend more time with their kids.

    Behind the Scenes of My Creative Process

    Building a scalable business while staying true to my family-first values requires intention. My creative process reflects that:

    • I brainstorm content ideas during my quiet mornings, often inspired by client conversations or feedback.
    • Filming and editing happen in batches to maximize efficiency.
    • I always keep my audience in mind—every blog post, video, or webinar is designed to solve a real problem they’ve shared with me.

    Family at the Center of It All

    Every strategy I implement, every boundary I set, and every decision I make ties back to my ultimate goal: spending more time with my family while creating financial freedom. This journey isn’t just about me—it’s about creating a legacy that prioritizes what truly matters.

  • Monetizing Your Knowledge

    Introduction

    Turning your knowledge into a scalable online business isn’t just about creating income—it’s about creating freedom, impact, and long-term sustainability. For me, coaching, mentorship, and offering high-ticket products have not only helped me build a thriving business but also allowed me to pursue passion projects, like ASL translation services. This work is a way for me to give back to the Deaf community by making an impact on families with Deaf children.

    If you’re ready to monetize your knowledge and scale your business, here’s how I’ve done it and the key lessons I’ve learned along the way.

    How I Monetize My Knowledge

    My business is built around two main streams of income:

    1. Coaching and Mentorship
      I focus on helping Deaf parents build scalable online businesses while maintaining their full-time jobs. My program equips them with the tools, strategies, and confidence to achieve financial freedom and gain more time for their families.
    2. High-Ticket Products
      Offering premium products aligned with my values—like promoting health and sustainability—has allowed me to generate significant income while making a positive impact. These products are designed to change lives, just as they’ve changed mine.

    Building this kind of business not only creates financial stability but also opens doors to meaningful opportunities. For example, because my online business is scalable, I can dedicate time to projects like ASL translations, which help bridge communication gaps for families with Deaf children.

    Tips for Pricing and Positioning Your Offers

    Here are some of the most important lessons I’ve learned about pricing and positioning:

    1. Focus on Transformation, Not Time
      People don’t pay for the hours you spend—they pay for the results you help them achieve. For example, my coaching program isn’t about teaching sales skills; it’s about helping families break free from financial limitations and create a life filled with freedom and flexibility.
    2. Start with High-Ticket Offers
      High-ticket coaching and products attract committed clients who are serious about taking action. This not only increases income but also ensures that I’m working with people who are motivated and ready to make changes.
    3. Leverage Systems for Scalability
      A scalable business needs systems and automation. By creating a structured coaching program and automating certain tasks, I’ve been able to help more people without overextending myself.
    4. Position Yourself as a Trusted Guide
      Clients are looking for someone who can provide clarity and confidence. Sharing my own experiences—successes and struggles—has helped me build trust and establish authority in my niche.

    A Personal Milestone: Transforming a Client’s Life

    One of the most rewarding parts of my work is seeing the transformations my clients achieve.

    For example, I worked with a Deaf mom who felt stuck in her 9-to-5 job and wanted more time with her family. Through my coaching program, she learned how to build a scalable online business without compromising her current job or family life. She’s now on track to achieve financial freedom and create a life of time and location flexibility.

    Knowing that my work has a direct impact on families is why I do what I do. And because I’ve built a scalable online business, I’ve also been able to dedicate time to passion projects like ASL translation services. To me, this is about more than accessibility—it’s about creating meaningful change for families with Deaf children.

    The Impact of a Scalable Online Business

    One of the best things about monetizing your knowledge is the freedom it creates. A scalable online business doesn’t just generate income; it gives you the flexibility to align your work with your passions and values.

    For me, this means being able to give back to the Deaf community through ASL translation projects while continuing to grow my coaching and mentorship programs. This balance between business and passion is what makes the journey so fulfilling.

    Key Takeaways for Monetizing Your Knowledge

    • Solve a Clear Problem: Focus your offers on a specific challenge your audience is facing.
    • Prioritize High-Ticket Offers: Position yourself as a premium solution to attract motivated, committed clients.
    • Invest in Scalability: Use systems and automation to expand your reach without burning out.
    • Align Your Work with Your Values: A scalable online business not only creates income but also allows you to pursue your passions and make a greater impact.

    • Growing an Email List

      When I first started exploring the idea of email marketing, I had no clue just how transformative it would be for my business. Like many others, I used to believe that having a large social media following was the golden ticket to success in online business. But as I soon learned, relying solely on social media is like building a business on a sandy foundation.

      Why an Email List is Critical

      In today’s fast-changing digital landscape, owning your audience is more important than ever. Platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok come with unpredictable algorithms and policies that can drastically affect your reach overnight. That’s why building an email list is one of the most reliable and powerful ways to grow a sustainable business.

      With an email list:

      • You Own Your Audience: Social media platforms can restrict your access to your followers. With email, you’re in direct control.
      • It’s Private: Many of my subscribers value the anonymity email offers, especially if they’re balancing a 9-to-5 job while exploring new business opportunities.
      • Stability and Consistency: Unlike social platforms, where trends and algorithms fluctuate, your email list is a consistent way to communicate directly with your audience.

      I created a simple infographic to show the key differences between social media and email lists.

      Social Media vs. Email List: Why Email Wins

      Here’s a quick breakdown of how email marketing outshines social media:

      Social Media

      • You’re renting space on someone else’s platform.
      • Algorithms control your visibility.
      • Policies can change with little notice.
      • Requires constant engagement to stay relevant.

      Email List

      • You own your subscriber base.
      • Direct communication with no algorithm interference.
      • Offers privacy and stability.
      • Content can be scheduled and automated.

      Social Media vs. Email List

      Short-Term TrendsLong-Term Investment
      Content trends can quickly fade.Your email list grows steadily and retains value over time.

      How I’m Building My Email List

      My approach to email marketing revolves around creating value-driven lead magnets and using automation to streamline communication. I use strategies like:

      1. Lead Magnets: Offering free resources, like a guide or webinar, in exchange for email addresses.
      2. Sign-Up Forms: Embedding forms on my website and blog posts to capture leads.
      3. Automation: Setting up sequences to nurture relationships and provide consistent value.

      Lessons Learned Along the Way

      I used to study Deaf influencers and content creators, believing that a massive following was the key to success. But I realized that many creators are at the mercy of social media platforms, facing challenges like algorithm changes and unpredictable payouts.

      Email marketing, on the other hand, allows me to maintain a direct, authentic connection with my audience while offering them privacy and consistency. It’s also been a game-changer for people in my network who want to discreetly build their online businesses without drawing attention from their employers.

      Staying Connected with Your Audience

      For me, growing an email list is more than just a marketing strategy—it’s about fostering trust and building relationships in an authentic way. Whether I’m sharing tips, resources, or updates about my latest projects, email allows me to stay connected with my audience on a deeper level than social media ever could.

      If you’re looking to create a sustainable online business, focus on building your email list. It’s not just an asset—it’s a game-changer.
