We’re so used to (and tired of!) the idea of hustling to make an income while putting our lives, relationships, and happiness on the back burner.
Katie and I are here to tell you that it doesn’t have to be that way!
Today on the podcast, we’re discussing what a relief it is to have a proofreading business that fits around our lives.
Tune in here as my TPA grad Katie shares
- how to go from discouragement to growth
- the keys to success as an entrepreneur
- what it’s like to be part of my graduate community of proofreaders
- how much work there actually is for transcript proofreaders
…and so many other words of advice, encouragement, and a little tough love to make your goals happen!
Tired of the hustle? Want to know if you have what it takes to work for yourself as a transcript proofreader?
Whether you’re new to the idea of transcript proofreading or already a successful graduate, listen in for a reminder of how you can do work differently and create the life you want if you’re willing to put in the work and stick with it.

But how do you know which type of proofreading is best for you?
There’s general proofreading, which focuses on books, blogs, papers, and more. And there’s transcript proofreading, which focuses on verbatim legal transcripts.
Both work with words, but they’re both very different when it comes to how and what you proofread, the clients you work for, and the skill and experience you need to be successful.
So which one’s the perfect money-making match for you?
Turning typos into cash as a proofreader sounds intriguing, right?
