7 Personal Development Blog Success Stories [2023]

Hi! My name is Dean Bokhari, and I’m the founder of DeanBokhari.com - a membership platform focused on inspiring people to improve their lives and achieve their goals.

These days, about half a million people read or listen to my work every month. It’s both fun and fulfilling to help others grow. And it’s financially rewarding, too—our revenues are over $100,000 per month.

My name is Khoa Bui, I’m the CEO of YouBeRelentless, an online resource that provides tips on entrepreneurship and personal development.

In terms of income, I’m currently bringing in approximately $4,000 per month in the form of Google AdSense, affiliate marketing, product sales, consultation, podcast interviews, and lead generation.

My name is Delilah Orpi and I blog about curly hair and clean beauty at The Holistic Enchilada. I help people with naturally curly and wavy hair transition to wearing their natural texture.

My website currently averages $7,000 a month in revenue, though some months can be a lot higher or lower.

My name’s Katie Emery and I’m the founder of KatieGoesPlatinum.com, a website that advises women on how to joyfully transition from dyed hair to their natural gray hair.

But, two years later, my site consistently averages $6,000 per month in revenue (sometimes reaching as high as $10,000/month). It has grown much more than I ever anticipated!

Hi all! I’m Marjolein Dilven, and I’m the founder of Radical FIRE. Radical FIRE is a personal finance platform that talks about financial freedom and financial independence, done by women for women. We’re aiming to help women all over the world by teaching them about investing, saving money, and making money.

Creating this business has helped me live the life I want while helping others create their dream life. I am currently traveling the world with my partner, after quitting my day job in September 2022 to work on Radical FIRE full-time. I currently have around $6,000 in monthly revenue, which is a 120% increase compared to last year. That’s why I felt confident enough to take the leap from my 9-5 job to entrepreneurship. It’s always been my dream to travel and I’m happier for it.
