The Secret Life of a Stacker

Hoarding stuff, skills, or success? That's good, you will relate.

I’m currently overwhelmed right now.

And I paused because I needed to write this newsletter. Before the magic escapes me.

If you’re a stacker like me, you are overwhelmed on a daily basis.

With the courses you never opened.
Unopened books you feel will help you go to the next level.
And maybe even half-baked projects (or businesses) that you have started.

Ugh, this was the overwhelm that I used to get myself into — overwhelm on the INPUT side of things…

The things I acquire, buy, and accumulate…and apparently, NEVER use.

You know these very well too, I suppose.

Today, I have a good kind of overwhelm.

It sits on the opposite side of the Input-Driven Overwhelm.

It’s being overwhelmed by the OUTPUT side of things. OUTPUTS that have resulted from my selected few INPUTs in the past couple of months.

I’ve barely been online.

Between beach trips, long drives, and my kid’s summer chaos, I’ve been in soft-mode.

And yet… opportunities keep flowing in.

(Warning: Win stack incoming, but it’s important to prove a point!)

✅ I had my first-ever webbie-workshop with Mailmodo last Tuesday and it was a success.

✅ A SaaS founder who joined the webinar reached out after with kind words and interesting possibilities.

✅ One tiny webinar invite email to our 100-person list? An old lead replied, interested to work together.

✅ I added a quiet little affiliate link to Gamma (the presentation software that created the slides for me from the text I wrote and pasted). Added it as a PS to my Facebook webinar announcement post. 18 signups. 3,600 credits!

✅ And now I’ve got 3 new DMs —partnership opps, possible clients, real conversations I actually want to have. (1 scheduled)

All from one event.
One stone.
Five birds.

Webinar → Founder offered free app upgrade → Possible DC → Gamma credits → Inbound leads on LinkedIn

And I’m telling you this not to flex—but to flag something important:

Alignment x Strategy x Showing Up

Deadly combo that gets you exactly what you want.

Even on days where my energy’s tapped.

Even when I’m not “on” every single day.

This isn’t about being everywhere or saying yes to everything.

It’s about showing up in a way that fits.
With offers that feel like me.
Messaging and posting that mirrors my actual rhythm.
And tools that multiply the work I do put out there.

Sooo how did I end up here?

Let’s trace back to my 2024 thought process.

How I wanted my 2025 ME to look like

Around this time last year, I asked myself one simple question:

“How can I get paid doing the things I actually love to do?”

To answer that, I had to get honest.

I’m not just a freelancer. Not just an agency partner. Not just a mom.

I’m all of those things—and I like it that way.

So I went into Adventure Mode, (because “juggling chaos mode” didn’t sound as inspiring lol).

I wanted to

• write for myself.

• serve and consult a few clients

• mother, wife, sexy hard.

And I wanted to see if I could design a business around that.

So I did my research.

It turns out there are already successful people, living the lifestyle I want.

But none have the life that I have, so I got the pieces I resonated from my faves and built my own:

• I want to write and think like JK Molina.

• Promote products like Tamilore Oladipo.

• Attract opportunities through a newsletter like Katelyn Bourgoin.

• Build and launch with CaaSocio like Erica Schneider.

• Live slower, like Allan Ngo.

• And still be known as a serious SaaS lifecycle strategist—like, well… me. I love this part of me. I value skills, expertise, and deep problem solving.
  

It sounds messy, and mentors have been telling me to do less lovingly—no offense to them, I still value and admire them—but THIS is how I thrive.

This is how I want to be. This is how I feel so alive. 2025 was the year when I felt like I traveled back to ME!

I took the pieces I admired. I reshaped them to fit.
And little by little, it started working.

The stone I chose

Once I saw the birds, the question became simple:

What’s the one stone I can throw that hits all of them?

For me, it was to become a B2B Creator, just like most of the people on my list above:

→ LinkedIn to build demand
→ A newsletter to build leverage
→ A community to support and win with me
→ An expertise so people pay you to just talk, write, and create

I didn’t need to be louder this time. Just clearer.

And when I picked the right stone, everything started stacking…and falling into my lap.

So what’s the secret?

Here’s what fellow Stackers keep to ourselves:

We feel guilty for doing too much.
Then we feel guilty for not doing enough.
So we hover in between—starting, stopping, second-guessing.

But stacking isn’t the problem.
Scattered stacking is.

The goal isn’t to narrow yourself down to one thing.
It’s to pick the right few that move you further—together.

To throw 1 stone that hits 5 birds.
To listen to God (through your thoughts) AS you listen to mentors.
To create systems and businesses that let your many selves coexist, not compete.

Because momentum doesn’t come from doing less.
It comes from doing aligned, fun side quest missions.

So if you’re like me—multi-passionate, occasionally chaotic, often mentally tired from suppressing yourself to NOT do things—this is your reminder:

You don’t have to choose one thing.
You just have to choose a few that fits you (and your next version).

Start there. And let the abundance follow.

P.S. Ready to throw your stone?

I’m something for the Stackers:
✨ The Remix Map ✨

(Or a Triple Threat Decoder)

It’s a lightweight digital guide that helps multipassionates figure out what the heck to offer, create, or build.

Whether you're launching offers, content, or tiny side quests—this tool shows you how to remix what you already have into a system that sparks movement.

No overwhelm. No burnout. Just one aligned stone, 5—or more—birds.

Perfect for creators, freelancers, and slow builders who want more momentum—with less mess and inputs. :)

You’ll be the first to get it when it drops.
