Kelly McCausey is a single-mom who changed her initial hours-for-dollars work model into a thriving full-blown business where she specialises in content marketing and community building.

She started working online, creating graphics and websites for others in 2002, where she used to charge too little for her hard work. Today, she blogs, hosts a podcast, run membership programmes, and coaches other aspiring entrepreneurs to achieve the success they want in their online business, all from the comfort of her own Michigan home.  

Kelly joins me today to share her journey from corporate to entrepreneurship – from trading her hours for dollars to offering multiple online courses and building a flourishing community.

She dives into how she creates quality content regularly, and what urged her to use digital apps even though she was initially opposed to them.

Kelly also shares how she runs her businesses and make things happen as well as her secret to being calm and composed for over a year now, despite the challenges that came her way. 

“Good friends, who will hold up that mirror and let you see clearly what you keep re-creating in your business, is a precious gift.”
