I was on the path to a successful business career when I got sidetracked by a love of teaching. Now, I've "retired" from the mainstream workforce and am a stay-at-home mom to four kids. I’m passionate about finding deals, earning money in unexpected ways (legally, of course!), connecting people, building community, traveling around the world, and writing about all of the above.
