#117 Think You Need to Start Over to Move Abroad? Nope—Use What You Know to Make Money Now.

If you think you need to learn coding, AI, or become a VA to move abroad… think again.

You already have skills people will pay for—you just need to reposition, not reinvent. In this episode, I’m calling out the biggest myth that’s keeping talented people stuck and showing you how to use what you already know to start making money fast—without burnout, imposter syndrome, or another expensive certification.

In this episode:

• Why “starting over” is a lie (and what to do instead)
• The Low-Hanging Fruit approach to making money with your existing skill
• Why freelancing beats remote job hunting (especially if you're moving abroad)
• How this all looks when you're living internationally
• The mindset shift that will change everything: “You’re not unqualified—you’re unpositioned.”

You don’t need another degree—you need a plan. Let’s build yours. 💛
