If you’re trying to make money while managing chronic illness, this episode is your gentle nudge and grounded strategy all in one.

Whether you’re dreaming of replacing your income, supporting your household, or finally getting paid for the work you love—this episode breaks down how to create a business that supports both your health and your bank account.

I’m walking you through 3 essential shifts that have helped me (and my clients) earn sustainable income—even through flare-ups, fatigue, and doctor’s appointments. These aren’t quick hacks or hustle-heavy tactics. They’re real-world shifts that meet you where you are.

Inside, we’ll cover:

• Why your lived experience with chronic illness is an asset (yes, really)
• How to leverage what you’re already good at to start earning now
• What to do if you’re stuck between needing income and not having the energy
• Why “being consistent” isn’t the only path to growth
• The identity shift that helped me move from survival to a successful business
• How to align your offers with your real life, not a fantasy schedule

Whether you’re exploring coaching, freelancing, consulting, or creative services, this conversation will help you think differently about what’s possible for your income, energy, and ease.

📌 This isn’t about pushing through. It’s about building a business that pays you back—without burning you out.
