I'm Barbie and I've
been riding the waves of online marketing since around 2008 (when I got
serious, but started dabbling in making websites back in 1997).
Back then in 2008? The internet was a totally different beast. Free ad sites, safelists, even old-school banner ads actually worked. And yep, I made a
nice chunk of change with those methods. But as the web evolved (and let's
be honest, got a whole lot noisier), the game changed. Big time.
By 2023, I almost walked away from it all. The offers felt off. The energy
felt off. I didn't want to do the dance anymore - the hype, the hustle, the
“look at me!” style of promoting just wasn't me. I'm not into pitching,
teaching, or pumping people up on cue. That's just not how I shine.
But I didn't quit.
Instead, I found a whole new lane, one where I could be myself and still
make magic happen. I started using joy, curiosity, and creativity as my
tools instead of scripts and sales pitches. And now? Everything feels
lighter. More aligned. Actually fun!
If you've landed here, maybe you're looking for something that feels better
too, a path that doesn't feel forced or fake. I'm here to show you what's
possible when you drop the performance and start showing up with the real
stuff: heart, humor, and maybe a dash of sparkle.
Stick around if you're into earning online without selling your soul. And if
I can bring you a few laughs, light bulb moments, or just help you pocket a
little extra cash each month? Even better.
Through the years...

Yikes
- aging is not for the weak! I'm 63 here, have given up
contacts and am wearing glasses full time, at least for
the time being.
Menopause wrecked my hair, so I can no longer get perms
every few months... I miss my auburn/brunette curls!
