In this episode, I open up about the real journey of making money from home as a disabled veteran. From running our Etsy store to building email lists, trying affiliate marketing, and exploring content creation, I break down what’s working, what’s been a struggle, and where I’m heading next.

This is not a get-rich-quick story — it’s a realistic look at the challenges and wins of starting a business from home while managing PTSD, anxiety, and the transition out of education and military service. Whether you're a fellow veteran, a disabled entrepreneur, or just someone curious about home-based income streams, this episode delivers raw insight with actionable ideas.

• Making money online as a disabled veteran

• Starting and growing an Etsy store

• Building an email list for e-commerce

• What’s worth your time (and what’s not)

• Real talk about mental health and business
