Welcome!
I’m The Author
This is the place I share my passions, creativity and my life. Our home is full of energy and creativity. We are a homeschooling family of six- our four children were born within five years of each other! We live off the grid and are building our dream home using timber and materials from our land. Its safe to say that my tiny house is never fully clean, and I haven’t gotten a full nights sleep in forever. But the love is abundant, and that is what matters most.
I am so glad you have found me, and I hope you consider joining in with me as I share and create content that can help you in so many ways! Keep reading to see just how much I share!
what exactly is this blog about?
Achieving the life you desire
I am driven to succeed, to achieve, and to conquer my dreams.
My biggest dream being FAMILY. All I have ever wanted since I can remember is to raise a whole bunch of kids on a big chunk of land, build a beautiful house with my husband, and create things.
As I grew up I also realized I was a serial entrepreneur, constantly creating business plans and thinking up ways to make money. I’m not a money hungry person, but I am a freedom hungry person. And what better way to be free than to become your own boss and provide for your family!
That’s why I also include business ideas on the blog, specially geared to the mom whos at home, or the couple who want to live more freely and start their own gig. I love providing ideas for side hustles, extra cash flow, or a hobby that can pay for itself in sales.
I’ve started many MANY different businesses throughout the years. Some people think I’m strange or that I have a hard time with commitment because once I get a business off the ground and succeeding I tend to move on to something new. But I don’t believe it’s a commitment issue, I think it’s an entrepreneurs spirit that drives my insatiable need to create and grow.


MACRAME MINI E-BOOK
“Money Making Strategies For Your Macrame Business”
This short and sweet e-book is packed with tips and strategies to make your macrame business a success! And best of all, it’s free to download on any device, including a printable version!
You can now subscribe to receive emails about all things macrame! You’ll also receive my monthly newsletter, but no other emails will come to your inbox!
What this website can give you for free
Starting and nurturing businesses has taught me so much. And I want to pass that knowledge on to others so that they too can find success! I share business plans, ideas, and education for starting, growing, succeeding and making your business all that you want it to be.
I specialize in side hustles for people who are at home with young children, or who want to migrate away from their “normal jobs” and build a life where they are their own boss.
My Ideas can also help someone who wants to contribute to the bills and take some strain off of their family.
WHAT ELSE DO I SHARE?
Instructions – Business Advice – Project Checklists
What do I blog about? Succeeding at home.
I don’t just share how to succeed with your business. I adore being a wife and mother, and try to succeed at home and create a lovely place we can all gather.
(Don’t assume my life is perfect or even a well oiled machine.. Oh my goodness no. Terrible assumption haha I’ll remind you again about my 4 young children AND that I live in a tiny house on wheels- off grid- in the woods- with pets and livestock- homeschooling- running businesses)
In between creating content to help you succeed making money with your side gigs, I like to consistently publish blog posts containing helpful information for your daily life. Cleaning & organizing, building & design, thriving in your marriage and family life, all things outdoors, and more.
It may seem like a lot, but my goal is to wrap it up in one big bow and label it Achieving The Life You Desire. Is that cheesy? Oh well, it works haha!

Out of pure necessity, my life revolves around cleaning EVERYTHING!
I’m a professional cleaner by trade. Third generation actually, (I like saying that, farmers do it so why can’t I?? haha) I own a successful high end home & cottage cleaning company. I also recently started a vehicle detailing company which has been a huge success as well!
That’s why I write about it, and try my best to help YOU the reader live a cleaner life. I’m filling the hub with resources on cleaning, organizing, and making your home a lovely place to be.
ALSO, I have big plans to provide more business related content for others who want to step into the cleaning industry!

Walk with me for a moment ..
My goal is to provide you with everything YOU need, right now, at this time in your life. That’s why I give you options for getting emails. Personally I hate getting emails about random stuff I don’t care about. So I make it easy for you, I create email funnels tailored to my readers. You want everything macrame? Sign up to only get macrame content to your inbox.. Just interested in cleaning? I got you, and I’ll only send you that.
And even if you want to hear ALLL of the the things I do, I’m only sending you out ONE monthly email. And it’s a newsletter. It contains everything I did that month and lets you know about anything new that can benefit you. I also remind you of your password for the members only hub. Because when you sign up for the newsletter you get unlimited access to my ever growing bank of created content!
I want to put everything I can at your fingertips so that this crazy ride we call life can be fun and adventurous, it can thrive and succeed, and you can call your place in life a lovely place called home.
