New Adventure Uncovered - An Experimental Income Stream Journey

After graduating from nursing school in April 2024, I focused more on my online business ventures. I have been so deprived of the luxuries of managing my own time because of school. Once I passed the NCLEX, I knew I was entitled to a well-deserved treat by immersing myself in doing the fun stuff. Enter, gaming.

Yes, you read that right. GAMING. I started playing League of Legends (again) after years of being AWOL. Can you believe that? I couldn’t believe it myself either; But I think I have found my true niche and I am in a predicament. More on this later.

The Big Income Stream Idea

It’s nothing truly exceptional, imo but the business model might a little bit be unique in its own way. I don’t have a fully structured model yet as this is again, experimental.

What makes it unique is that the goal is to become a Twitch Partner in the end, PLUS integrate my current business into the scene. I planned to do this through my Kaizen SaaS platform.

So, how does this look like?

To put it simply, I begin my adventure as a small Twitch streamer (while playing LoL –  and having fun), climb my way up to Twitch affiliate, advance to become a Twitch Partner, and finally be able to include this in my Income Stream List.

While all of this is happening, I intend to promote my services as the web “specialist” that I am by assisting other streamers with branding, design, and streamer business growth via my Legacy Kaizen SaaS Platform.

How I will do this is still in the making. I am exercising due diligence in documenting this new journey.

Why the sudden pivot, again

If you don’t know me already, I love exploring different avenues to find the best ways to achieve my Ideal Income Lifestyle. Not to mention that this is also a waterloo I often struggle with the most – sticking to one project at a time.

My personal business brand won’t be going away, nor my Millennial Bella brand. Think of it as digital real estate expansion, embarking on semi-new territories on a quest to find lucrative opportunities.

Caveats that I foresee happening

Not counting the fact that this will divide my attention as a solo business owner, many caveats are lurking beneath the surface.

👉 prioritizing between online ventures
👉 time constraints as a solo business owner
👉 unforeseen solo business biases
👉 maintaining good health, discipline, and focus
👉 creating consistent content for growth

Intertwining the biz with a twist

While this plan is put in place, an idea I came up with that might be mutually beneficial between ventures is a Twitch Live Stream Workshop (Freestyle Mode). In a nutshell, this is a free “workshop/webinar” where my Selfmade Brand community members and followers can freely attend and ask away questions about branding, design, and anything business-related.

If the popular route for office hours is Zoom, my new model would be the Twitch stream. The format is casual and more (young gen) younger-generation-friendly. It’s an ask me anything workshop while I stream my favorite games and EVERYONE is free to join and chat with me.

Obviously, this is free, asynchronous, and unstructured. There are no specific topics, schedules (yet), and is participant-led. In addition, regular Twitch followers who do follow for the sole purpose of gaming will be there, that’s why I’m calling it Freestyle Mode.

👾 If you’re a gamer and interested in embarking a similar pathway, I encourage you to subscribe and follow my Twitch channel. This way, you’ll get updates on how I’m progressing when I’m live. Plus, ask me anything too!
