HI, I’M BALESENG
“BAILEY” IF YOU KNOW ME…
It all started with a simple, no-code website, and trying to create a digital space for my pre-teen self.
’From hours of scrolling through Google search results looking for the perfect website hosting platform to blogging my way out of depression, and finally starting my journey as a paid content writer - the internet has always been a refuge, a place to feel connected to the world around me, and to help and be helped.
It’s time to Upgrade to Someone Who GETS You…
In my chaotic journey, I started businesses, pursued law and forensic investigation, and am now teaching entrepreneurship.
Despite my newfound freedom, I lacked direction and questioned my choices. I set a freelancing ultimatum for financial and personal freedom, contemplating a career as a lawyer or mentor.
Out of curiosity for the direction that my life had taken, I aimed to create a brand that resonated.
Now, I teach aspiring entrepreneurs to do the same thing…
BEHIND THE SCREEN
I didn’t always have this business: the clients, the sales, the hundreds of downloads...
I had:
- Dropped out of Medical School
- Started an e-commerce business and digital magazine
- Finally admitted to myself that I wanted to attend law school & specifically understand corporate law & financial accounting, and
- Decided to simultaneously qualify as a forensic investigator — on top of being a corporate law student,
All while concomitantly working for Fortune 500 Companies as an independent contractor, copywriter, and digital content creator living the “laptop lifestyle”...
(I probably sound annoying!)
