Hey friend,
Can you believe we’re already in Q2 of 2025? Time is flying, and I thought—what better moment to share something a bit personal that could also help you level up your money game?
Over the last few years, I’ve doubled my income. Yep, doubled. It wasn’t magic, but it was definitely intentional. I’ll be sharing the 4 key things that helped me achieve this—splitting them across two emails so this one doesn’t turn into a mini ebook 😅.
💬 1. Keeping a Praise File
Listen, when it's time to ask for more money or update your CV, your brain will forget all the incredible things you’ve done. That’s why I created a system to track my wins.
Here’s what I do:
I have a dedicated Google Drive folder where I upload screenshots of wins—emails, client feedback, KPIs, presentations.
Inside that folder, I keep a Google Doc for each year, and every quarter, I write down achievements, results, and milestones.
This simple practice has:
✅ Boosted my confidence when negotiating
✅ Made it 10x easier to update my CV or LinkedIn
✅ Helped me actually see my growth in black and white
💰 2. Negotiating My Salary
The first time I had to negotiate my salary, I was nervous. Like, sweaty-palm, overthinking-every-word nervous 😅. So I booked a session with a career coach—best money I’ve ever spent.
She shared one tool that changed everything:
The Outcome Table.
Before the conversation with my boss, I had to write down the possible outcomes—best case, good case, worst case—and the action I would take in each scenario. It helped me feel prepared, grounded, and less afraid of the “what ifs.”
Here’s what that looked like for me:
Having this written down gave me clarity and control. And guess what? That first conversation led to a raise. Not the full amount, but enough to prove to myself that I can do this.

Remember, doubling your income isn’t just about chasing more—it’s about owning your wins, backing yourself, and designing a life that works for you. I’m rooting for you every step of the way.
