Hi @steempowerwhale, I loved this post. It's inspiring to see a few of the people doing so well and I love your dream too. You've got a big heart.

I'm on Steemit because I too love to help people. I spent way too many years working a job I felt trapped and miserable in. It's one of the worst feelings. I know there are so many others out there like me who need help getting started....or even just planting a seed in their head that there could be a different way for them. :)

I want to share helpful information on life and business on Steemit. :)

So my dream and mission in life is to inspire, motivate and help others in that situation to create an escape route to do what they love and live freely.

In the past 6 years I've tried all kinds of ways help people online with this, but I found out early on that building a business online isn't at all easy.

I've spent more than 130k and so many hours trying to figure this all out. Most people think I'm a little crazy for not giving up by now, but when you really love to do something I guess you'll do so at high costs.

If I could help even a few people see that they don't have to do work they don't enjoy, I'd be so happy. I know I can do better than just a few though.

My goal is to work with my new business partner (a childhood friend) to research how we can reach the people who need us most and how we can best help them. Then we're going to start a life and business coaching program and design programs to overcome or accomplish several areas in life, I.e. Self confidence, figuring out their life path, mindset, business skills and marketing, etc.

And while I'm not exactly at the beginning of my journey, I'm more than ready and willing to continue on my journey. Steemit seems to be filled with lots of dreamers who have similar goals so I hope I can make a lot of new, like-minded friends. :)
