At 19, Alyssa was juggling two jobs, lifeguarding and retail, earning $18 an hour.
Her plan? Stick it out, get a business degree online, and figure it out later.
But six weeks into uni, she made a bold call: quit the degree and back herself with digital skills.
Fast forward just nine months and Alyssa didn’t just replace her part-time income… she made $12,000 in a single month, working from her laptop in Warwick, a small country town in Queensland.
She did it without paid ads, without a fancy degree, and without leaving home.
If you’ve ever wondered if it’s possible to build real income online without going back to school, getting a degree or moving to a big city… watch the interview below.
Today, You Will Learn How Alyssa:
- Landed her first $12K client without cold calling.
- Built a keyword-researched, AI-powered website in 45 minutes.
- Used Instagram DMs and local strategy to start a legit business.
- Replaced years of theory with months of real income-producing skills.
