I was desperate that day. We were in a really tough place financially. And I didn’t know what to do.
So I fell on my knees in our apartment closet and cried out to God to please help me figure out anything I could do to bring in some more income.
I had tried so many things — babysitting, working as a mother’s helper, mystery shopping, working as a virtual assistant, teaching creative writing classes, selling on eBay.
I tried to start a business teaching violin lessons (what I had done for years before we moved after we got married). I put ads in various newsletters and then waited — and didn’t get one single call.
