Janelle
My name is Janelle, and I'm a business and branding strategist, which is a very LinkedIn way of saying I help people start businesses.
Through my company, SideBiz SMART, and my online community over on IG, my work centers on helping 6-figure employees start and stabilize successful (read: profitable) side businesses so they can ditch corporate america and begin living healthier, wealthier and more fulfilled lives as entrepreneurs.
After scaling my own business to multiple six-figures in under a year and helping my clients do the same, I light up at the thought of helping miserable millennials understand the value in decentralizing work (particularly corporate structures) and building a life around their personal priorities and problems that really matter to them.
You can find the bulk of my work here on my website, on instagram at @heyjnicole and on my self-care and sidebiz podcast Sunset Provisions (streaming on all major platforms baby).
My hope and prayer is that the my words and actions motivate and inspire you to not only find where the center of your own joy resides, but to relentlessly pursue it with everything you’ve got.
If you leave my little corner of the internet with one takeaway, let it be this: you’ve been humble for long enough. It’s time to start wildin’ in pursuit of your joy.
Cheering us all on,
Yes Lawd, thank you Jesus!
