Our definitions of a lot may differ, but I never expected I’d be so successful, especially considering:

  • I didn’t have a website. (I just created one recently.)
  • I didn’t blog.
  • I didn’t run ads.
  • I’m not a native speaker.
  • I worked 2–4 hours per day.

Over the past 6 years, I’ve made $300K+ freelancing, most of which earned in the past 2–3 years.

I’ve mentioned my freelancing career in other Medium stories, but I never wanted to write about it in detail. It’s not what I want to do anymore; it’s not who I am. I tried to move away from the idea that I’m a freelance writer, even in my own head.

But a few Medium readers asked me about it in comments and even FB messages.

And recently, I noticed a lot of mothers around me want to know how I did it. They also want a career where they can make good money, work flexible hours and have plenty of time for their kids (and even some time for themselves).

One single mom, in particular, gave me the final push.

I don’t want this to sound like these fake “Oh, hundreds of people ask me how I did this, so I created this…
