No-bullshit mentorship for professionals who feel stuck
Beat the burnout
When I started my business, I did it all myself. I didn’t have anyone to ask questions about setting up their business structure, sending pitches to clients, or knowing what to charge. I would have loved to have someone to just riff with—someone who wasn’t my unqualified roommate at the time.
I spent thousands of dollars on a renowned mentorship training program only to be left with a referral to an even scammier virtual assistant.
Everything felt so impersonal. It was too much hustle. It didn’t vibe with how I work. I felt intimidated to speak up in the group Slack channels, no one responded when I did, and I left the community without having made a single connection—just thousands of dollars in payments, some for services never rendered.
I value my happiness more than I value my business. And I’m on a mission to help others do the same. Because when you thrive, your world thrives.

Her ability to dial in on the pain points of my business has helped me focus on the next steps I need to take. She is enthusiastic, supportive, and refreshingly honest. I promise working with Alex will be worthwhile.” – Leigh Deweese, freelance writer

Who the hell am I?
My name is Alex Sheehan and I am a freelance content strategist and writer who currently lives in beautiful Puerto Rico. I was forced into freelancing full-time when I was fired for taking a stand against plagiarism. Now I make more money and work less than ever before, and I want to help others do the same.
My work has earned awards from Content Marketing World and the Custom Content Council, and you’ve probably seen my writing on page 1 of Google—more than once 😉. I have bylines with Shopify, Wave, and other top technology companies. I’ve been a panelist/expert for Rutgers University, ASJA, and Peak Freelance. My mom says I’m her favorite oldest daughter, and one time I summited Mount Doom IRL.
I also own a small marketing agency which I don’t talk much about but am looking to change that. I have a team of more than a dozen contractors who specialize in everything from branding to UX and email to analytics.
Through my marketing agency, I’ve mentored dozens of freelancers at every stage in their business. I want to bring that mentorship to a larger group of people, even when I don’t have work to hire them for.
This is one message I received from a mentee who inspired me to create this offering.
