YEs, PLEASE
If you’re dreaming of ditching the daily grind to go all in on entrepreneurship, you’re not alone. It’s no mean feat to build a business, raise a family, and maintain your sanity – all while balancing a 9-5 in the background.
Day after day of juggling it all – a draining commute, daycare drop offs, and a culture of corporate burnout – leaving it all behind to work for yourself is looking better by the day.
Calling all dreamers, doers, and evening entrepreneurs: Now’s the time to make a move.
But here's the thing..
If you feel like you've reached a crossroads, you probably have.

Does this sound familiar?

That longing in your heart is a purpose.
That stirring in your soul is a mission.
I'm ready!
Full time entrepreneurship is calling your name.
Will you answer?
The world is ready for everything you’ve built. All that stands between you is a little bravery, a lot of nerve, and forty hours a week.
There's no greater teacher than failure.
As I built my wedding photography business from the ground up, this was more than a motto for my success – it was a mantra for my survival.
For years, I worked around the clock to get my wedding photography business off the ground, shooting all weekend and clocking in at my desk job Monday through Friday. All the while, I had four young children asking “What’s for dinner?” on an eternal loop.
Despite making mistakes left and right – always tough, sometimes expensive – I managed to figure it out. After five years in business, I ditched my 9-5 job for good.
The result? Abundance. Ease. Less stress. More time for the moments that matter most.
There was no rulebook, no manual, no how-to guide…until now (because you better believe I wrote everything down!).
What if you could make your part time side hustle a full time career (without the rookie mistakes)?
With a little wisdom, a whole lot of patience, and an intentional path forward, your side hustle can grow to support a life you love. My story is living proof – and it’s about time I share my secrets.
Are you ready to make the leap?

A year from now you will have wished you started today...
let's get you started!
Wherever you find yourself, there’s a path forward.
Which one will you choose?
You could continue down your current path, building your business by candlelight and giving up your weekends so you can grow, little by little. You know you’ll leave your 9-5 someday (maybe), but it’s not today. Even with burnout on the horizon, you’ll have to keep all the plates spinning at work, at home, and beyond.
You could take a trust fall into the unknown and hand in your two week notice with crossed fingers (The Universe will provide, right?). Every inspiring story of entrepreneurship starts this way, but few describe the sleepless nights, the unpaid bills, and the constant stress of scrambling to make ends meet.
Or you could invest in The Entrepreneur's Blueprint, where you can skip past the silly mistakes and beginner blunders and build a sustainable side-hustle-turned small-business-success-story.
What’s that worth to you?

Being a CEO takes courage. This is your invitation to take fear off the table so you can pursue your passion.
They took a chance on their dreams.
With just five dollars to their name, they bet it all on themselves.
They never took no for an answer.
They slept three hours a night just to rise and grind before everyone else.
They lived on rice and beans to pour every cent back into their businesses.
Inspiring anecdotes aside, you rarely hear what happened before taking the leap.
Before their three month sabbatical in Italy, what systems did they have in place to keep their business humming along in the background?
Before they sold out their inventory in five minutes, how did they find their audience?
Before they quit their day job, how much money did they have in the bank?
Whether you’re a seasoned side hustler or just getting started, mindful preparation ahead of your two week notice can be the difference between a seamless, sustainable career transition and some of the hardest lessons you’ll ever learn in business. I’m here to help you make sense of it all.

I'm Kelly, your new Business Coach!
My goal is to teach others how to live out their creative dreams while experiencing more freedom, less-stress, life-changing wealth, and a lasting legacy for generations to come.
hi there!
Not long ago I was in your shoes.
The overwhelm. The loneliness. The passionless desk job. Constantly teetering on the edge of burnout. One kiddo on my hip and three clinging to my ankles.
There was nothing easy about my journey to becoming a full-time entrepreneur. For five years, I worked tirelessly to build my photography business from ground up – all while putting in 40 hours a week at my day job. My husband and I were thousands of dollars in debt and I was determined to achieve a rock-solid financial foundation before taking the next step in my business.
The challenges I faced during those years were some of the greatest of my life. I fought to get through the day. I cried bitter tears. I felt completely, entirely alone.
Except I wasn’t.
Thousands of women across the globe were on a similar journey to turn their part-time realities into full-time dreams. Before you keep reading, know this: You are not alone. You can curate a life you love with your business – and I’ll show you how.
Take it from me: Nothing beats reaping the rewards of your hard work and preparation. Stepping up your side hustle to become a full-time entrepreneur empowers you to live life on your terms.You’ll be in charge of your days like never before, free to enjoy every soccer game, every once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and every meaningful moment in between.
I've been exactly where you are.
This program includes everything you need to quit your 9-5
Imagine where you could be one year from now. What about five years from now? Will you be exactly where you are now or will you be living the life you've always dreamed of? This is your chance to FINALLY learn how to leave your 9 to 5 with confidence, make money doing what you love and kick fear to 👏🏻 the 👏🏻 curb!

Setting yourself up for a smooth transition out of your 9-5 job financially.

Let's Do This Thing!
SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
Is The Entrepreneur Blueprint right for me? Who isn't a good fit for the program?
The Entrepreneur Blueprint was designed for creatives, freelancers, small business owners, aspiring and established entrepreneurs. This program is tailor-made for dreamers and doers ready to turn their side hustle into a full-time business. Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve got ten years in business under your belt, The Entrepreneur Blueprint will teach you the essential skills you need in order to run a sustainable, profitable business.
This program isn’t recommended unless you can commit several hours a week to grow your business. Successful students will need to be open to new ideas, approaches, and tactics to thrive in business and beyond.
When does the program start and finish?
Upon enrolling in the program, you'll receive instant access to every module and the bonus resources prior to our live coaching calls. The content is yours forever! The group coaching portion of The Entrepreneur Blueprint will last for six months, with the option to continue on a month-to-month basis for additional support.
When will the coaching calls take place?
All calls will be held over video on Wednesdays at 8:00 pm CST via Zoom. All sessions will be recorded and made available within 24 hours. All group sessions will be recorded, so if you have to miss one, you’ll be able to catch the recording and ask for any clarification needed in the online community!
FREQUENTLY ASKED
How often can I expect support from you, Kelly?
There will be a lot of hands-on learning in this program. Throughout your journey, I’ll be right there with you. Your success is my success! Between coaching sessions, you’ll be encouraged to reach out through our exclusive Slack community with any questions or thoughts Monday through Friday.
How will we tackle The Entrepreneur Blueprint as a group? Are all of us working on the same thing at once?
The six month program will enroll new students on an ongoing basis, so you’re encouraged to move through the modules at your own pace. As we meet for live coaching calls, you’ll have the support of your fellow students to dive deeper in the curriculum, regardless of where you’re at in the course. Through teamwork, community, and individual study, you’ll gain new connections and a sense of belonging you won’t find anywhere else.
When will I be able to quit my full-time job?
First thing’s first: Entrepreneurship is a marathon – not a sprint. There is no expectation that you’ll be working in your business full-time after six months of this program. Every student will be reminded at some point in their first week. This course is designed to give you the confidence and tools you need to plan for full-time entrepreneurship (emphasis on the planning part). You’ll know when it’s time to make the leap. Promise.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
I've had a side hustle for years. Is this program only for beginners?
All are welcome here, from seasoned side hustlers to brand new business owners and everyone in between. I was building my photography business for years before I quit my 9-5. In this program, I’ll teach you the exact methods I used myself! My curriculum covers the fundamentals of business you may already know, but the primary focus is empowering you to take the leap from savvy side hustler to full-time entrepreneur!
Do you offer any payment plans?
Yes! Payment plans are available for all. Rather than paying in full upon enrollment, you can opt to make six monthly payments of $500. To book your spot in the program, your first installment of $500 and a signed contract are requested to save your seat. From there, all remaining payments will be due on the first day of each month.
Do you have a refund policy?
Due to the nature of this program, no refunds are permitted. You can count on me to instruct you and hold you accountable while doing so, but here’s the thing: You are the only one who can guarantee your success. The goals you set in our virtual classroom can only be achieved through hard work, consistency, and self-awareness. Results can only be realized by you.
