My kids had just lost their mom. They couldn't lose me to a time clock too.
I teach parents one skill they can earn from on their phone, so they stop trading time for money.
I was a single dad of three working 2 PM to midnight at the plant, and I was missing the years they needed me most. This is how I bought my time back so I could be there for my kids, and where I'd tell you to start.

This is for you if…
I was every one of these people. That's why I know where to start.
01
You want an online income but don't know where to start.
02
You want more time with your kids while they're still young.
03
You're ready to leave the 9-5, or at least stop needing it.
04
You don't have a product to sell yet.
05
You don't have followers yet.
06
You've tried other programs and felt like a piece was always missing.
My story in one sentence
After my kids lost their mom, I realized the one thing they needed most from me was the one thing my job wouldn't let me give them: my time. So I set out to buy it back.
But why does that matter?
The promise
I was 21, sitting on the couch with my wife, playing with our newborn daughter. Out of nowhere she looked at me and asked, "If anything ever happened to me, would you fight to keep my son?"
I didn't hesitate. Yes. He was three, and he already felt like my own.
Then something did happen. I lost her. The same heartbreak that took my wife put me in a courtroom, fighting his biological father for the boy I'd promised to protect.
I doubted I would win every single day. Then one day his father walked up, signed his rights away, and walked out. My lawyer turned to me: "How would you feel about adopting him instead of temporary custody?"
There was one more obstacle. The adoption couldn't go through until they served his father a bench warrant for years of back child support. I told the judge I didn't want the money. I wanted my son.
"He looked at me and said he wished he had more men like me standing in front of him every day."
I walked out of that courtroom and went straight to his school to pick him up for a day out. He's called me Dad ever since.
But why does that matter?
The breaking point
Winning didn't fix what was happening at home. I was a single dad with three kids who had just lost their mom: my oldest was 9, my daughter was 4, and my youngest was 2.

One night I walked in and my oldest was still up. He told me he gets scared because I'm always working.
I had fought a whole court case to be his father, and he was growing up without me anyway.
I tried to get out. I tried other programs and companies and spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours. Every time, it felt like a piece was missing.
Then I found DWA. The first thing I noticed was how many different ways there were to make income. I was already on social media every day, so I started applying what I learned. On day 7, I had my first viral post and gained over 2,000 followers.
But why does that matter?
The truth
Most of us were raised to believe that time with our kids is something you earn after the bills are paid.
Underneath that is the fear nobody says out loud: that by the time you've earned it, they'll already be grown, and they'll have done it without you.
My kids had already lost their mom. I didn't want them to remember their dad as the man who was always at work.
