South African Retires Mom At 18 Through Wifi Money

Wat als je werk je niet langer vasthoudt op één plek?
In deze aflevering spreek ik met Priti, die begon met een online verdienmodel en daarmee financiële vrijheid creëerde voor haar gezin. Dat was het startpunt van een bijzonder reisavontuur: van Nederland via Europa en Azië naar Curaçao – en nu opnieuw de wereld in.

We praten over:

Hoe ze haar online inkomen opbouwde

De impact van reizen op haar kinderen

Waarom heimwee hen tijdelijk terugbracht naar Nederland

Hoe ze onderwijs én vrijheid combineert

En hoe ze na elke wending toch trouw bleef aan hun droom

Een eerlijk en inspirerend gesprek over vrijheid, aanpassingsvermogen én loslaten.

🎧 Luister nu en ontdek hoe jij jouw leven ook anders kunt vormgeven.

👉 Wil jij ook op wereldreis met je gezin?
In mijn online cursus ‘Op wereldreis met je gezin’ help ik je stap voor stap om deze droom haalbaar te maken. Van geldzaken en leerplicht tot routeplanning en mindset — je hoeft het niet alleen te doen.

Geoarbitrage Is BACK & More Important Than Ever (Nomad, Wifi Money, Cost Of Living Crisis)

Quit your toxic nonprofit job and replace your full-time income while writing grants part-time, from home! Join our students in the Freelance Grant Writer Academy to create Financial Stability and Flexibility through writing grants for causes you are passionate about: https://grantwritingandfunding.com/freelance-grant-writer-academy 

World-renowned grant writing expert and Amazon bestselling author Holly Rustick provides coaching that helps new and experienced grant writers replace their full-time income while writing grants part-time from home (or anywhere they want to live or travel in the world). 

She coaches changemakers to master grant writing and start to grow 6-figure+ grant writing businesses on part-time hours via her signature group program, “Freelance Grant Writer Academy."

As an unapologetic feminist, Holly’s work in coaching female grant writers to master grant writing, find their cause-area niche, and navigate value-based pricing and nonprofit sales is breaking glass ceilings for women all over the world.

Every week, she coaches thousands of people through the top-ranking podcast, Grant Writing & Funding, books on grant writing, and inside the Freelance Grant Writer Academy.  

Holly has 20 years of experience in grant writing, and began her freelance grant writing journey back in 2005. While teaching in Kuwait and Indonesia, and then earning a Master’s Degree in International Political Economy in Belgium, Holly saw the light of setting up a virtual-based business in grant writing back in the mid-2000s. Having secured more than $45 million of dollars for nonprofit organizations, and then setting up a multi 6-figure freelance business, Holly has a mission to help female grant writers break out of toxic nonprofit J-O-B-S and create high-level income while freelance grant writing. 

Inside the Freelance Grant Writer Academy, students have secured more than $61+ million in grant funding and $1.3+ million in revenue in their grant writing businesses within ONE year.

To amplify this work, she is past-president of the Guam Women’s Chamber of Commerce and was appointed to the Guam Business Advisory Task Force as an advisor to the first female governor of Guam. Holly lives on the island of Guam with her beautiful daughter, Isabella. 

If you are interested in replacing your full-time income while writing grants part-time from home (or from anywhere in the world!) join the Freelance Grant Writer Academy!

Focused on bringing raw/uncut positive energy into your life from different perspectives around the world. Connecting a community of doers to be successful in any aspect of life.
