Here’s what I’m doing instead
This is what I’m doing instead 👇🏻
After having my third baby earlier this year, I realized what was once my dream job, was causing more stress than happiness. I’m still incredibly passionate about what I do, but in this season of life, it just doesn’t make sense. It requires me to be on-call and requires me to leave at an unknown time on and unknown day for an unknown amount of time, and it’s way too hard to balance with a baby and two other kiddos. (I’m a birth doula and childbirth educator)
My friend Amy posted about a new opportunity. (I was actually her birth doula and was there for the birth of her daughter 🥹) She made over 10k in her second month 🤯 like whaaaat!? She quit her teaching job and is home with her daughter now!
After asking her a million questions, I decided to go for it myself!
If you’re like me, you’re probably thinking that it sounds too good to be true. Let’s face it, there’s a million scams out there… Amazon marketing, digital sales on Etsy, “buy this course about how to sell this course” etc etc.
So I’m gonna find out just how legit this thing is, and I’m gonna tell you everything! I’m on day 7 right now!
What else do you want to know?? LMK! 👇🏻

Balancing a demanding career with a growing family can be incredibly challenging, especially when your job requires unpredictable hours and on-call availability. Many parents, like the author, find themselves reevaluating their priorities after major family changes such as having a new baby. Transitioning from a birth doula and childbirth educator role—professions that often involve irregular schedules and immediate physical presence—to a flexible work-from-home career in high-ticket sales presents a viable solution for parents seeking more stability without sacrificing income potential. High-ticket sales generally refers to selling premium products or services that have a higher price point, which can result in significant commissions. For many, this career path offers the flexibility to work remotely and set your own hours, making it well-suited to stay-at-home parents (SAHMs) or those wanting to supplement their income while managing family responsibilities. However, skepticism is common since the market is flooded with get-rich-quick schemes, digital marketing traps, and misleading courses promising easy riches. Authenticity and due diligence are key. The author’s friend Amy’s success story—earning over $10,000 in just her second month and quitting her full-time teaching job—shows that legitimate opportunities exist. Community support, ongoing learning, and transparency about the process are vital factors that separate trustworthy ventures from scams. It's encouraging that the author plans to share insights throughout her 7-day experience, providing real-time feedback and answering common questions. Additionally, career changes like this often involve acquiring new skills such as client communication, understanding the product or service, and mastering online marketing strategies. Support networks, mentorship, and persistence play important roles in achieving success. Tags like #wfh, #sahm, #workfromhome, #highticketsales, and #entrepreneurjourney highlight the intersection of remote work and parenthood. For parents considering a similar switch, it’s helpful to research company backgrounds, listen to reviews, and avoid any program requiring large upfront costs without clear value. Realistic expectations and incremental goals can help maintain motivation. Ultimately, finding a sustainable balance between career passion and family life is a journey, and exploring flexible sales careers can be a rewarding chapter in that story.
