Welcome to Your Next Chapter (Building Prosperity on Your Own Terms)
You’re Not Starting Over. You’re Pivoting.
If you’re a woman standing at a crossroads—whether that’s a career pivot, an online business, or figuring out what prosperity even looks like in this next chapter—you’re in the right place.
This isn’t about throwing away everything you’ve built. It’s about taking your skills, your experience, and your hard-won wisdom, and redirecting them toward something that actually feels aligned. Something that pays you what you’re worth. Something that doesn’t require you to shrink, perform, or prove yourself anymore.
Hi, I’m Ana.
I help women who feel called into a career pivot stop wasting time and money in indecision and finally get clear on what’s next.
If you’re tired of second-guessing, consuming endless content, and buying courses—only to end up back at square one—I help you turn that overwhelm into a focused plan.
Through faith-rooted coaching, practical strategy, and AI-supported clarity tools, we map your next steps toward purpose and steady income. Let’s quit hesitating and start moving.
I’ve walked this path myself. I know what it’s like to:
Feel invisible in a job search.
Spend thousands of dollars consuming content and courses without taking real action.
Undercharge because you’re afraid to ask for what you’re worth.
Stare at a blank page, wondering if anyone even wants to hear what you have to say.
Question if it’s “too late” to build something meaningful.
Spoiler: It’s not too late. Not even close.
But here’s what I’ve learned: prosperity isn’t just about working harder or learning more tactics. It’s about clearing the internal blocks that keep you stuck, leveraging tools like AI so you’re not doing everything manually, and showing up with your voice (because your story, your expertise, your perspective? That’s the differentiator).
What You’ll Get in This Newsletter
Your Second Act is published weekly and rotates through three core sections:
📊 AI for Business
This is your lab for exploring how AI can support your creative and business flow—with less overwhelm and more intention. I’ll show you how to use AI as a strategic partner (not a soulless shortcut) so you can work smarter, write faster, and stay fully YOU in the process. Whether you’re optimizing your LinkedIn for a career pivot or automating client workflows in your business, you’ll get practical, tested strategies.
🙏 Mindset & Manifesting
Beyond strategy and systems, we’ll explore the spiritual tools that keep you aligned—energy work, mindset practices, and how to shift your relationship with money, worth, and visibility. This is where we talk about the blocks that keep prosperity at arm’s length: imposter syndrome, scarcity thinking, fear of being “too much.” Because your business (or career) will only grow as far as your inner world expands.
✍️ The Writer’s Table
Welcome to the corner of the newsletter where we get real about the writing life. Whether you’re drafting content for your business, updating your LinkedIn, or finally writing that book, this is where we trade stories, practice our craft, and learn how to use our voices without second-guessing every word. Writing doesn’t have to be a solo climb.
Who This Newsletter Is For
You’re in the right place if you’re a woman and you:
✅ Are navigating a career transition (new industry, new role, re-entering the workforce, or pivoting after layoff/burnout)
✅ Are building or growing an online business (coaching, consulting, freelancing, creative work, digital products)
✅ Feel like you’re starting over—but you know you’re not actually starting from zero
✅ Want to use AI strategically without losing your authentic voice
✅ Struggle with pricing, visibility, or asking for what you’re worth
✅ Need the mindset and spiritual tools to break through money blocks and fear
✅ Are ready to do the work (inner and outer) to build real prosperity
Who This Newsletter Is NOT For
I’m not here to:
Sell you get-rich-quick schemes or “passive income in 30 days” promises
Teach you how to “hack the algorithm” or go viral
Give you surface-level tips without addressing the deeper work
Pretend AI will replace your unique voice, gifts, or calling
If you’re looking for shortcuts, this isn’t your place. But if you’re ready to build something real, sustainable, and aligned? Welcome.
A Few Things You Should Know About Me
I believe:
Your business is your ministry—whether or not you call it that
AI is a tool, not a replacement for the irreplaceable parts of you
Prosperity means financial freedom AND fulfillment (not either/or)
You’re guided—this path you’re on isn’t random, even when it feels messy
The best work happens when you’re rested, aligned, and clear (not hustling yourself into burnout)
Why Listen to Me?
I’m a digital marketing consultant, a writer, and someone who’s pivoted many times. I’ve sat in the uncertainty. I’ve undercharged. I’ve stared at the blank page, wondering if I had anything worth saying. And I’ve come out the other side with tools, frameworks, and a deep belief that we really can start over.
