I Took a Digital Wealth Course and Accidentally Wrote a Book

Let’s be clear up front: Digital Wealth Academy is not a writing course.No one in the videos said, “Here’s how to outline your memoir” or “This module will help you pour your heart onto 150 pages.” And yet... here we are.

I’m in the final stages of editing my book. It’s 150 pages of personal, fierce, slightly unhinged brilliance. Will it hit the bestseller list? Probably not. Will I cry when I hold the first printed proof in my hands? Absolutely. Because here’s the thing—I finished it. And finishing something like this? That’s power. That’s growth. That’s wealth in the deepest sense.
So how did a digital product course lead to me writing a book? Pull up a chair, grab your tea, and let me tell you how a course that taught me how to make side income accidentally helped me change my whole identity.
Why I Joined Digital Wealth Academy (DWA) in the First Place
It started with a little something I like to call: economic anxiety with a side of existential dread.
I realized that my entire financial future was being decided by someone else—a boss, a company, a structure I didn’t build. That didn’t sit right. I needed to diversify. I needed something I controlled. Something that couldn’t be taken away by an email from HR.
So I joined Digital Wealth Academy (DWA). Not because I had a business idea (I didn’t). Not because I’m some born entrepreneur (jury’s still out). But because I knew I needed to build something of my own.
Little did I know, that decision would be the spark that led to not just a blog or a product—but a whole book.
What DWA is ACTUALLY About
DWA isn’t fluff. It’s not some “get rich by Tuesday” nonsense. It’s a real framework that teaches you how to:
Find your digital niche (aka: what you can offer that people will actually buy)
Create simple, helpful digital products (templates, guides, mini-courses)
Launch a digital storefront that sells for you, while you sleep, or sip wine
Learn how to market like a real pro, even if you've never sold a thing in your life
Build an audience that actually cares what you have to say
There are swipe files, templates, community forums, and even email strategies. It’s a crash course in self-sufficiency, with enough support to make you feel like you’re not out here alone Googling “what is a funnel again??”
And while none of it has anything to do with writing a memoir...
It gave me everything I needed to finally believe I could finish one.
The Surprising Stuff No One Tells You About DWA
Look, no one signs up for DWA thinking, “This will heal my self-doubt and inspire me to write 150 pages of emotional brilliance.” But here we are.
The real gift of DWA? Momentum.
I started showing up for something every day. That tiny act of doing created a ripple effect. First, I built my blog. Clearly you've heard of it, then I refined my voice. Then I started telling stories—first to an audience, and then to myself. Until eventually, the idea hit: write the damn book.
DWA taught me how to finish.How to follow through.How to keep promises to myself.
And once you realize you’re capable of that... whew. There’s no going back.

Writing a Book Wasn’t the Goal—But It Became the Win
Listen, this book wasn’t for Amazon charts or literary acclaim. It was for me.
It was my therapy. My experiment. My “what if I just… finished this?”
It started as scattered thoughts and messy drafts, but somewhere between building products and marketing myself, I started believing I had something to say.
By Friday, I’ll be holding 150 printed pages of something fierce. Maybe no one reads it. Maybe it collects dust. Doesn’t matter.
I finished. That’s the flex. That’s the fuel. That’s the freedom. Now, i'm ready to try something new. Stick with Turasona and see how it evolves as I do.
Why I Recommend DWA (Even if You Don’t Know What You’re Creating Yet)
You don’t need a business plan. Or a perfect idea. Or a logo. You just need a spark.
DWA gives you:
A path to real, sustainable side income
A community of people who are also building cool sh*t
The tools to start selling your ideas (yes, even the half-baked ones)
A crash course in marketing, mindset, and money
And if you’re lucky? You might just find your voice, your power, and your ability to finish the stuff that matters to you.
Don’t Sleep on the Spark
DWA didn’t teach me how to write a book.
But it did teach me how to show up.To try.To finish.To bet on myself, even when I had no idea where the road was going.
Sometimes you sign up for one thing—and it leads to something you didn’t even know you needed. For me? That something was 150 pages of truth, fire, and proof that I can build whatever the hell I want.
If you’ve been waiting for permission, this is it.Get the course. Plant the seed.You have no idea what it’ll grow into. Ready to join?
