The Gutsy Mama Project Membership Takes The Guesswork Out of Building a Profitable Squarespace Design Business (While Your Baby is Napping).
Most Web Design Courses charge anywhere from $1000 to $3000 upfront for this kind of value. But I decided to create one every Mom could afford for just $37/per month.

You don’t need a new job.
You don’t need more overtime.
You don’t need to Sling MLMS at Family Gatherings.
Here is what society tells you you need to do to earn extra money as a busy mom.
Go through all the hassle of finding a new job.
Sacrifice family time and find childcare to take on overtime hours.
Join an MLM and send cringy DMs to girls you went to high school with.
Spend Months Googling and Watching Youtube Videos just to launch your own website.
Buy another $97 shiny object ebook from a guru that promises to help you build a business, only to find out it's full of outdated strategies and information you probably already know.
I get anxiety just thinking about it.
How ‘bout you?
When is all that time and effort going to amount to actual cash in your bank account?
Or…you could join other Gutsy Mamas just like you, who have already used a proven system to launch and grow their web design businesses on their terms.
When you do, this is what your life could look like:
You’ve launched a website that is not only beautiful but also sells your services faster than you ever thought you could.
You’re attracting high-value web design clients who value your skills.

You have the mindset and confidence to show up confidently in your business.
You can choose who you really want to work with.
You earn a great living from home while helping others.
You can turn your side hustle into a full-time gig where you outearn your 9-5 friends without outworking them.
Let Me Give You All The Tools That You Need.
Hi! I’m Julie.
I’m the OG Gutsy Mama who turned building one Squarespace website for a friend into a full-fledged web design business that out-earns my old corporate gig….
And I’m here to help you do the same thing.
Back in 2015, when I started my marketing business, I bought into the “hustle culture.” Remember back then when it was all “bro-marketing,” pics standing in front of rented Lamborghinis and faking it till you make it? I thought that was how I needed to be too. And to be honest, I did ok, but I was working a million hours a month for clients I didn’t like. It wasn’t fun, and it definitely wasn’t rewarding.
Oh, AND SIDENOTE….before I learned how to build websites myself, I paid a web designer over $3000 for a website that I could create for myself now in a few hours. 😢😢😢
Then in 2017, I had my daughter, and I learned quickly that hustle culture and motherhood do not jive and mommy guilt is real.
So I tried…
To power through the exhaustion, find childcare, and work the same way….with a newborn. Moms are supposed to work like we don’t have kids, right? 🤬🤬
I spent THOUSANDS on business coaches and courses that were all hype and gave me no practical advice.
I tried being a stay-at-home mom but got depressed because I lost my sense of self and missed working and earning my own money.
All that ISH is exhausting, and I knew I had to be a mommy-guilt-free way that I could be the fully present mother and badass money-making boss I always wanted to be.
So, after all my trial and error, anxiety, and costly business mistakes, I have figured out two undeniable truths.
Truth #1
Designing websites is a GREAT GIG FOR MOMS to do from home. They can do it on their schedule, AND it is an in-demand skill.
Truth #2
Moms don’t have time to search a million different blogs, Instagram pages, and youtube videos. They need easy-to-follow videos and support in one on-demand place.
This is your chance to become the Website-Building Gutsy Mama every business owner and side hustler needs.

Join The Gutsy Mama Project Today
The Gutsy Mama Project will make you more than capable of running a web design company with a waitlist of clients without spending a cent on advertising.
My business model gives you the freedom to be the mom you want to be and to be the creative boss you’ve always dreamed about being.
The security of the 9 to 5 is a fallacy. Mom-guilt is a distraction. The control you’re craving in your life starts and ends with becoming your own boss.
There has never been a better time to rewrite the career rulebook.
It’s about making money while you're at the gym or making memories at the park.
It’s about bringing home the bacon while getting to know your tiny human inside out. You know what I’m talking about. You get to know their looks and quirky personalities. You know precisely when they’re about to do something naughty and when they’re about to get sick.
It’s about having an uncapped income but still being able to drop everything to have sick days watching cartoons on the sofa in pajamas and not having to stress out about how many PTO days you have left for the year.
While money can’t buy you happiness, the right business can give you that unshakeable bond of mama and child without losing yourself.
Bet on yourself.
With The Gutsy Mama Project, the odds are always in your favor.
If you're nervous about starting your own business, know this:
You don't have to walk the entrepreneurship road alone. Join the other Gutsy Mamas and me. Let' do this together.
✔ You don't have to start at zero. Let me give you the shortcuts and templates you need to hit the ground running.
✔ You don’t have to work 12-hour days. Let me help you build and automate your workflow so you can work fewer hours.
✔ You don’t have to be afraid of “selling." Let me help you build the confidence you need to succeed.
Being a mom is Complicated.
Let's Simplify Your Business.

FAQs
Isn’t starting a new business risky? Shouldn’t I just apply for a new work-from-home job?
Sure, you could be constantly searching Monster.com for work-from-home jobs. You could be attending Zoom interviews and vetting new work-from-home jobs, but let me tell you that working from home isn’t the dream goal, especially when it’s to someone else’s schedule.
Do you want to answer calls all day about a company you care nothing about?
Do you feel inspired attending endless virtual team meetings while trying to find a hidden corner of the house that’s quiet enough?
Do you feel like you’re living your best life when your kids wonder why you’re always on the computer and the phone?
Finding a work-from-home job is a band-aid fix, not a long-term career strategy.
Being a mom isn’t your career death sentence.
Being a mom has brought you to this point in your life, and now you get to rewrite the career rulebook.
Become a full-time mom and a cashed-up CEO of your own web design business, and prepare for a satisfying and fulfilling career outside the corporate bonds. Always be there for tummy time, their first steps, and school drop-off.
How Can I Possibly Learn Web Design? Code? What? No Way!
Squarespace is your answer.
Squarespace takes coding and designing out of the equation with templates you can’t break. Trust me: in the beginning, I tried hard. Squarespace wouldn’t let me.
It’s the drag-and-drop style of editing that keeps the design smooth and style on point.
It’s not just that, though.
Squarespace has actual human beings on hand when I need tech support. So if I’ve got questions, Squarespace always has answers. (Try that with WordPress. It won’t happen.)
Squarespace is mobile-responsive, which means your website will look good on a mobile phone, a tablet, and any sized computer screen. These days, with everyone going online with different devices, that’s really important.
Finally, while I use available templates, the customization is unlimited, meaning I can create a website that’s as unique as my client. I’ll show you how to bend its templates to your wildest creative mama will.
So, this is where I take a moment to profess my love for Squarespace.
I love you, Squarespace.
Thank you for giving this mama the opportunity to set up her own web design business that allows her to out-earn her corporate salary while working part-time hours.
