Jyostna Ramachandran quit her job out of boredom and out of frustration.
Creative frustration.
From running her own staff recruitment business to a, now successful, Kindle publishing business, Jyotsna, has published over fifty titles in the last year.
Last month she earned $5300. More than she has ever earned.
Having become a mother, Jyotsna got into Kindle publishing to create value for others and a life of freedom for her young family.
In this episode, you’ll hear about Jyotsna’s biggest challenge, the benefits of waking up early and why she’s recently written a book by the name of Job Escape Plan.
