Girl, I’m so glad you’re here. I have so much to tell you.
You know that feeling when you have a secret that’s just too good to keep to yourself, and you’re dying to spill it to your bestie? Yeah, that’s how I feel right now.
I used to think that making money meant working hard—like, really hard. And that there was no other way to do it. (Unless you were already rich, that is.) Like those crazy startup stories with sleepless nights and endless coffee. Just a couple of years of suffering. That’s what it takes to make your first 100K, right?
But that’s not what happened for me. I was fully prepared for the grind—I stocked up on coffee. Bought packs of under-eye patches (you know, for the lack of sleep). Even got myself a comfy office chair.
And then I sat down to it, ready to hustle. And I did! For a month. And then… there was nothing left for me to do.
The business just ran. On its own. The money started coming in—first $500 a month, then $1,000, then $1,500… and it just kept growing. It felt like someone else was doing the work while I lived my life.
And I was like, Wait a minute… it can’t be this easy. If it was, someone would have told me, right? Maybe it was just luck. Yeah, that had to be it.
So, to prove my point, I started another business. And the same thing happened.
That was a couple of years ago. Now I know—it wasn’t a miracle, and it wasn’t luck either. It’s just what happens when you set up an online business to work as a passive income. Millions of people do it. And yet, somehow, it still feels like some sort of a secret trick.
So now, I want to be the person who tells you all about it.
What does Passive Income even mean?
Okay, so now that I’ve shared my story, let’s talk about you. Maybe you already know all about passive income but have no idea where to start. Or maybe you’ve just stumbled across this post (girl, the universe definitely has your back). Either way, I’m gonna help you figure it out.
So, to get us on the same page, let’s break it down: what is passive income? Simply put, it’s money that flows in even when you’re not actively working for it. It’s the kind of money that comes from setting up investments or businesses that run mostly on their own. It’s nothing but making money while you sleep.
What Passive Income is
✅ Money that keeps coming in after you’ve set things up
✅ A business that makes sales while you sleep
✅ Freedom to choose when (or if) you want to work
✅ A smart way to make money without trading time for cash
✅ A way to add extra income without quitting your job
✅ A long-term strategy, not just a one-time win
This all sounds amazing. And passive income really IS amazing. But remember – this is no magic-trick-money-falling-from-the-sky type of thing. You still need to put some effort into setting it up, and there is always a chance it will not work out, okay? I just want to set things straight, I don’t like selling BS.
This is business, girl, not some Vegas jackpot.
What Passive Income is NOT
❌ A get-rich-quick scheme
❌ Guaranteed success no matter what
❌ Money for doing absolutely nothing (you need to set it up first)
❌ Instant cash (it takes some effort in the beginning)
❌ Only for experts or rich people
❌ Always completely hands-off (you still might need to keep an eye on things)
So far so good?
Okay, but can a business be a Passive Income?
Some passive incomes are pretty obvious, like buying a flat and renting it out. You find a tenant, and then money just keeps coming in every month.
But businesses? How do they work as passive income? Don’t you need a ton of money, employees, and some complicated system to run it?
Nope. You can set up a business to work as passive income from day one.
You just need to make smart choices and design your new business with that goal in mind from the start. It’s not as hard as it sounds.
Let me tell you what I mean by making smart choices. Let’s say you’re a teacher, and you’re amazing at prepping students for math exams. You want to start a side business. Now, you could offer private lessons after school, right? That’s one way to make extra cash. But what if you record your lessons and upload them to YouTube instead?
See what I did there? It’s the same product, but sold in two totally different ways. One way, you’re only making money when you’re working, one hour at a time. The other way, you’re making money… while you sleep. And that’s how you get yourself a passive income.
But I’ve never even started a business—isn’t Passive Income something for the experts?
I get it. Building a passive income can feel like some advanced tactic—like how could you possibly build a business that makes money without you even touching it? If it sounds too good to be true, it definitely can’t be easy, right?
Well, quite the opposite. Passive income businesses are usually pretty simple and quick to set up. Because think about it—if it takes you years to start it, it’s not really a passive income, is it?
They’re also usually built entirely online, which means no huge investments in renting space, hiring people, or buying equipment. In fact, you can even set them up with zero budget (exactly what I’m showing you in these posts).
So think about it—you’re investing no money and very little time. And no investment means no risk. That’s why passive income businesses are perfect for beginners.
They allow you to learn how to run a business without putting yourself under a big pressure. As a beginner, you’ve got a lot to learn, and sure, you’ll make mistakes, that’s only natural. But that’s not something to stress over when there’s no risk involved.
Passive Income is for girls.
Now, there’s one more thing for us girls. We’ve been conditioned to think entrepreneurship is a “guy thing”, right? Finding the confidence to start your own business is tough enough as it is. There’s a lot of “what ifs” and “am I good enough?” floating around.
But here’s the thing: You don’t need to dive into some massive, complicated project to prove yourself. Why not start with something simple that can bring results quickly? There’s no better confidence booster than watching the money roll in.
And once you’ve got that first business going, there’s nothing stopping you, girl.
And I really need no money to start?
The only things you really need upfront are a solid plan and a few weeks of hard work. (Yep, I said hard work. I’m not here with some magic pill to hand you, sorry!) But here’s the thing—it’s just a few weeks of effort. And then the business starts to work for you. It’s all about setting things up the right way from the get-go.
There are some businesses that you can start with absolutely zero money. For others, you’ll need a small initial investment. Creating a passive income with $0 is doable. With $100, it’s comfortable. And with $1.000, it’s a piece of cake.
Don’t worry, I will give you plenty of ideas to choose from to fit your exact budget.
Will this make me a millionaire?
Maybe. Maybe not. And you know what? Both are okay.
When you’re starting with passive income, it’s important to set your expectations right. Why? Because these are usually small ideas and niche products. You’re not running a big company with a marketing budget the size of a city block. Going from $100k to a million? Sure, that can happen. But from $0 to a million? Not so easy.
So yes, your first business could totally explode and make you a millionaire. It happens. Look at Silicon Valley. But here’s the question: would it be so terrible if it didn’t? What if you spent a month setting it up and then it “only” brought in $500 a month? Every month. For the rest of your life. Imagine that steady income rolling in while you go live your life, without having to lift a finger. Boo-hoo, right?
This is why you need to set your expectations. Some of my products bring in $1,000 a month, and some bring in $100. And guess what? I’m happy about both. Because I don’t need to do anything to earn that money. It just keeps coming in.
Every month, I have the free time to create another product or start another business. And another. And another. But only when I want to. And with each new one, I’ve got a bigger budget and more know-how, so it gets easier.
The snowball starts rolling, you’re building momentum. And before you know it, you’ve got multiple streams of passive income, all working for you.
The road to your first million just got a lot shorter.
What if I want an empire, not a paycheck?
Ladies, I know what we dream of. We picture ourselves running a business like Miranda runs the Runway—rushing through a big glass-door office, making a big impact in our industry, inspiring the employees, shouting at secretaries… okay, maybe not that last one.
But you get what I mean. We want an EMPIRE. And I’m sorry, but some one-person online business doesn’t really sound like one.
Does it mean passive income is not the right thing for me?
Not quite. Even if your dream is to have an office full of employees one day, passive income is still a perfect starting point. Why? Because that extra cash rolling into your account every month? It could be a way to fund that big idea of yours.
Passive income really is a powerful thing. It gives you more than just money—it gives you freedom. The freedom to choose what you do with your time. I, for one, love taking three-month-long holidays on a whim. But I also love to hustle and dive into a new project like a maniac. Thanks to my passive income, I can do both.
So think of your first business as a tool. It’s okay if it’s not the idea yet. Right now, you’re learning, growing, and setting yourself up for success. You’re building the foundation for something bigger (whether it’s another business or starting a family), and that’s the real win.
Okay, I’m in! How do I start?
I’ve got you covered, my dear. I’ll take you through it all, step by step. From picking the right product to choosing the right marketing strategy, I’ll show you exactly how to start a business that works for you. We’re doing this together.
Let’s start with finding your perfect business idea:
Love,
