One of my favorite things to help people do is turn what they already know into recurring income. Today, I helped a former high school student who has continued to stay close to my family— who has 20+ years of beekeeping experience and manages 300 hives — turn his knowledge into a paid online community. Instead of just answering random questions here and there, he now has a structured space where beginners and seasoned beekeepers can learn from him directly. It’s amazing how much expertise people are sitting on without realizing it could become a business. If you’re in beekeeping and looking for real mentorship, please check him out. The Beekeeper's Porch Swing We did set this up as an affiliate community so you can benefit as well. And if you’re a business owner with knowledge you haven’t monetized yet — you might be closer than you think.

I shared this in my community earlier and thought I’d drop it here too in case it helps someone. One of the biggest things I hear from people wanting to build something online while homeschooling is: “I just don’t have time.” But often it’s not about having more time — it’s about using small pockets intentionally. A few simple ideas: • Listen to personal development during car rides • Use waiting time to respond to messages • Set a 15-minute timer and focus on one task • Plan your top 3 priorities the night before • Replace some scrolling with learning or outreach • Batch tasks so you’re not switching constantly •And .... we all sit on the potty 🫣! I will never forget when my college professor (25 yrs ago) said study your flashcards when you use the bathroom 🚽 🤣 Imagine how many messages you can send 🤔 You don’t need hours — consistency in small pockets adds up. Hope this helps someone today.

Check out this blog post that I created. It is specific to our province when it comes to regulations but much of the content is general and applies to everyone’s homeschool transition. Find it here: https://homeschoolhelp.ca/2020/09/01/ontario-homeschool-guidelines-demystified/ I’d love to hear about the homeschool regulations in your country/state! Tell us in the comments!
