A Major Midlife Shakeup from Teaching to Copywriting - Vikki's Story (Episode 250)

A Major Midlife Shakeup from Teaching to Copywriting - Vikki's Story (Episode 250)

Imagine juggling full-time teaching, full-time parenting, and a five-year-long divorce.


Exhausting doesn’t even begin to cover it.

That was Vikki’s reality until she realized one thing: no one was coming to change her life for her. If she wanted something different, she’d have to create it.

On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Vikki was suuuuper generous with sharing her story and how she went from burnout to building an entire new career.


Vikki has not only doubled her income, she’s also working less hours. Normally I’d totally get if you were like, “Nicki, spoiler alert!”


But the magic is in the way she got to this point.

Vikki is sharing all her best tips (Kate and I walked away with some new ones!), including how she kept moving forward, even when the big picture felt overwhelming.
