Back to Business
April was great to me in more ways than one. After two long years of hotels, temporary spaces, and shared living, I finally moved into my own apartment. That kind of peace of mind is priceless. My unit is only partially furnished, but it’s mine and that alone shifts everything. There’s a different kind of focus that comes when your environment is truly your own.
Now, it’s time to get serious.
I have four additional DBAs to establish, followed by securing my food vendor’s license. At the same time, I’m actively researching grants and loan opportunities to fund what’s next. The plan is clear: build solid here in Nevada over the next three years, then transition to the British Virgin Islands. That vision is locked in.
This month, I begin my notary classes another step toward expanding my service offerings. I’ve made the decision to postpone my paralegal studies until after summer so I can give my full attention to what needs to be built right now. Sometimes progress isn’t about doing everything at once it’s about doing the right things at the right time.
I’ll also be pricing vehicles for my future fleet while working toward financing for my food truck. There’s a lot in motion, but it’s all aligned. First things first, I need to complete my website and begin launching campaigns focused on business formation services. That’s a major priority.
One question I had to sit with was: How much should I pay myself?
After some reflection and a little faith I landed on a starting point of $800 per week, matching my previous employer. It’s realistic, it’s structured, and it gives me a target to build toward as I establish business credit lines and secure funding.
May is all about planning and development. No rushing just building it right.
I’m grateful to have unemployment benefits right now, giving me the space to pursue a stable remote role while laying the foundation for my businesses. I know what works best for me, and I’m committed to environments that allow me to stay focused, productive, and drama-free. Remote work isn’t just convenient it’s strategic.
Beyond business, I’m pouring back into myself. I’m planting a garden filled with herbs, edibles, and florals something grounding, something nurturing. My spice collection is finally rebuilt, and this summer will be full of refining my cooking skills, prioritizing mental wellness, and actually enjoying life in Las Vegas.
And yes I’m still smiling from that royal inspiration. I’ve even saved The Royal Channel on YouTube and plan to spend some time studying and learning. There’s something powerful about witnessing legacy, discipline, and presence it stays with you.
I’m also working on building affiliate partnerships to promote my website and will soon begin offering packaged services. On top of that, I plan to share hotel promotions for travelers heading to Vegas because having at least three streams of passive income isn’t optional, it’s necessary.
This season is intentional. I’m giving myself May and maybe June, possibly the first two weeks of July to focus, build, and reset. The past two years tested me, but they also prepared me. Now it’s time to lay a strong, unshakable foundation.
By August, I’ll be ready for work, for school, and for everything that comes next.
Today, I’m designing marketing tools for pop-up events and structuring my schedule.
So tell me… what do you have planned today?
