from The Comeback Career Podcast with Fexingo: Returning After a Gap, Stay-at-Home Re-Entry · host Fexingo

In this episode of The Comeback Career Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore how returning professionals can use a career gap to create and sell an online course. They focus on the story of Sarah Chen, a former marketing manager who took a three-year break to raise twins and built a $12,000-per-month course on social media strategy for small businesses. The hosts break down the key steps: auditing your expertise, validating your idea with a pilot cohort, choosing a platform like Teachable or Thinkific, and pricing your course. They discuss common pitfalls like overproducing content and under-pricing, and share tips on using LinkedIn and email lists to market your course. This episode offers a concrete, actionable roadmap for turning career break experience into a scalable income stream and a compelling re-entry credential. #Careers #CareerGap #OnlineCourse #ReturnToWork #SideHustle #PassiveIncome #SarahChen #Teachable #Thinkific #SocialMediaStrategy #LinkedIn #EmailMarketing #ScalableIncome #PilotCohort #ValidatingIdeas #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheComebackCareer Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
