Hi! My name is Amanda andI’m the blogger behindBlogging Freedom

Blogging Freedomisn’t my first blog...ormy second...or mythird..

B L O G G I N G F R E E D O M . O R G

It’s actually my fifth! Istarted blogging 3 yearsago in 2013 and was aTOTAL failure at it!

B L O G G I N G F R E E D O M . O R G

5th Blog!

So while I attempted tolaunch a “successful”blog, I became afreelancer. I wrote, didsocial mediamanagement, and was avirtual assistant helpingother women launchtelesummits and managetheir businesses.B L O G G I N G F R E E D O M . O R G

At the same time I alsowas a full time collegestudent, an intern, andthen when I graduatedfrom college, I worked fulltime as a legal assistant…(I bet you can see how thisstory is going to end)

B L O G G I N G F R E E D O M . O R G

My freelancing biz wouldstart and stop because Iwould work, work, work andthen get totally burnt out ondealing with demandingclients. In the end I wouldcut off all client work for afew months only to comerunning right back when Ineeded the extra money…

B L O G G I N G F R E E D O M . O R G

So I invested in myself withmoney that I didn’t reallyhave and bought YaroStarak’s BloggingMastermind Course. It taughtme more in a few monthsabout blogging than years oftrying to learn on my own!My mind exploded withideas!

B L O G G I N G F R E E D O M . O R G

I took most of 2015 to sitback and watch otherbloggers, learn all I couldabout digital monetizationstrategies and launchedBlogging Freedom inOctober 2015.
