## Resource

Lucy spent 8 years as a corporate lawyer before realizing the traditional career path wasn’t going to give her the lifestyle, freedom, or family time she wanted. In this episode, Matt Raad sits down with Lucy to talk about how she and her partner Reefe built an online lifestyle business, 4X’d their income in 18 months, and created a business that lets them work fewer days while being more present with their young boys. You’ll hear how they went from running a traditional electrical trade business to building an online asset that generates targeted traffic, attracts corporate advertisers, and creates multiple income streams. Matt also shares the three skills he believes every online business owner needs: sales, networking, and marketing. Plus, why learning the foundations of websites, traffic, and digital assets still matters in the age of AI. If you’ve ever felt burnt out, stuck in your career, or wondered whether there’s another path, Lucy’s story is a powerful reminder that your existing knowledge can become a real online asset.
