Did you know that if you clean just 2 houses a day/5 days a week, you could make $3,700- $5,000 a month? Don’t believe me? Let’s do the math. The average house cleaning price today is between $90 to $150. Let’s go with the average of the two $120. Now 2 houses a day means $240 a day X 5 days a week = $1,200 weekly X 4.2 (weeks in a month) = $5,040! Simple.

Average commercial (office/retail) cleaning price is between $220 to $450 X 2 a day = $440 to $900 a day!

I started cleaning houses about 12 years ago, so I’ve been in the game a while. But if you had asked me 13 years ago what I would be doing with my life at this age, I would not have said this at all.

I did all the "right" things. I went to college, got my 4-year degree, got married, bought a house, and worked in an office. My husband and I made a nice little income together, we had a nest egg, and I thought this was the way my life was supposed to go.

But I was exhausted, and not just physically. Sitting at a desk, typing at a keyboard all day, was hard. I was having back pains (I wasn’t even 30 when I first started experiencing them); my wrists hurt at the end of the day; I had constant headaches from the stress of meeting various deadlines and sales quotas every week.

Mental stress and anxiety can make life really miserable.

The weekends weren’t fun anymore. Instead, they were just days to sleep and feel tired and dread Monday, when it would all start again. Work drained me mentally so much it didn’t even feel like "rest". I felt trapped and exhausted and overwhelmed by it all because, at the end of the day, I was stuck with the idea that it wasn’t fair. I wasn’t supposed to feel like this because I did everything right, and I was still absolutely miserable and emotionally struggling.

I was terrified to pitch my idea of quitting my job to do this to my husband, but he was so supportive, and we worked out a financial plan that made sense.
