Making money blogging.

It has never been so incredibly important — especially since the rise of the Covid-19 pandemic.

At the start of 2020, who would have thought that life would take such a drastic change? Chilling at home in our loungewear made us responsible citizens — an introvert’s lifelong dreams come true!

However, with this change, having a financially secure future also changed for many.

Many people started to look for ways to earn money from home, and what did they find?

Blogging is an incredibly easy way to make money from home.

Wait, just take the “easy” part out & replace it with “far more complex than you think…”

That’s how making money blogging is. It’s easy for some, but for most of us, it’s more complicated than we think.

If I knew then what I know now about blogging — boy, I wouldn’t believe every blogging income report that I saw on Pinterest.

The reality of my life was: I earned $0 working from home.

Thank God for my husband’s income — if my family had to rely on me, umm, we’d be homeless.
