In this episode of the Live Free Podcast, I’m chatting with Jackie, a mom of five, mini-farm enthusiast, and now a thriving Online Business Manager (OBM) for interior designers. Jackie shares her inspiring journey of leaving behind her 40-hour office job and a home daycare business to finally build the flexible freelance life she dreamed of.

After an initial attempt to go through the Live Free Academy didn’t quite stick due to timing, Jackie came back determined—and this time, everything clicked. Within weeks, she had her first client, and soon after, her business began growing fast. Jackie opens up about what that first year looked like, the niche she discovered she loves, and how she’s balancing business, baby, and backyard chickens.

She also shares how trusting the slower seasons was part of her growth story—and why now, she’s booking discovery calls back to back, signing new clients, and confidently turning her passion into a thriving business. Jackie’s story is the perfect reminder that it’s never too late, and the right timing makes all the difference.
