Helping you build an online business that fits your life and lights you up.
Welcome!
I’m Gail. I’m a writer, educator, and online business mentor and I’m so happy you’re here. If you’re dreaming about earning an income from home, doing something creative and meaningful, you’re in the right place.
I created My Online Income to share real experience, practical guidance, and the mindset support needed to build an online business that grows steadily over time. No hype. No complicated jargon. Just step-by-step help and encouragement.
My journey into online business
For over 20 years, I’ve worked in the arts, education, and media as a:
• Corporate video director and producer
• Drama and dance teacher
• Founder of a UK performing arts school
• Freelance writer for the early years sector
• Blogger and affiliate marketer
Along the way, I trained in NLP and life coaching, and hypnotherapy, which strengthened how I support others in learning new skills, feeling confident, and taking action.
Discovering affiliate marketing and passive income gave me more flexibility, creativity, and freedom. Now I get to work from home, use my strengths every day, and build an income that grows while I sleep. And I want to help you do that too.
Real life, real motivation
I live in the beautiful Surrey Hills with my two amazing children, whom I originally fostered and who are now officially part of our little forever family. Our journey taught me resilience, trust, and the power of small steps forward.
Those lessons shape everything I teach here: progress over perfection, patience over pressure.

Hello Gail,
I’m faithfully involving myself with Affiliate Marketing with the hopes of becoming successful in the niche of my choosing. I believe in “Serve First” as stated by another marketer whose name I won’t mention, but has in my opinion made a mark in this world by serving. I’m a Personal Fitness Trainer, therefore you can already sense my desire by means of affiliate marketing, which in time by work and faith in my work, with proper guidance shall give birth to other avenues whereby others may be helped by my cheerful giving of myself.
I’m fearful of being scam, although my desire to learn in order to help others. I haven’t yet designed my first website, and am excited about it.
I thank you Gail for your time,
Tony
Hi Tony. Thank you so much for reading and commenting here. You sound like you have already created a niche for yourself which is something you’re passionate about and that is a great place to start. I understand your worry about scams but I can honestly say that the training I’ve received at Wealthy Affiliate is worth every penny and much, much more. What I particularly like is that wonderful community there that is available 24/7 with people very willing to help everyone. I can’t speak for other programs but I do highly recommend the one I know. All the best building your website and if you need more information, please feel free to contact me again. Gail
Hi Gail:
You have a very interesting bio, I can only congratulate you on that my friend. When I became a Wealthy Affiliate member back in september 2017, after having been scammed several times before, you were one of the first wonderful persons I met through your warm welcome.
I am grateful that I met you and that we are following one another. The posts from you that I have read are all very charming and inspiring, just like your bio.
All my best wishes to your much deserved success my friend.
Eugenio.
Thank you Eugenio for your lovely, kind words. I’m very happy to be following your progress with your websites and online business too. One of the great things about online marketing is that we can all root for each other’s success as we are all pursuing our own interests and niche sites. Wishing you lots of success with your sites too. Take care. Gail
Hello Gail. I love your website. I have read a lot of stuff. Is it easy to do this. I have tried so many things and I want something that works. Does this Affiliate Marketing work?
Hi Trevor Thank you for visiting my site. I absolutely believe in the work I am doing here and on my other site which is to do with the law of attraction, positive thinking and NLP. I love writing and feel eager and excited every day for the opportunities I have found with Wealthy Affiliate. It is NOT a scam but a very legitimate way to start an online business. But you should also know that it is not a ‘get rich quick’ scheme either and it will take work, effort and commitment on your part to make it work. But that is the same with any business. I don’t know anyone who would seriously open a shop on a high street and then just sit there expecting to have it be successful. The online journey I feel is much easier, less expensive, much less risky and you can do it in your own time and at your own pace. Fabulous!
Gail….Your website is phenomenal, you have covered everything looking forward in the near future in getting some tips from you. You have many of the same interests as I have. I am the kind of person who wants to take on everything but landing here at Wealthy Affiliate is like no other site I have ever clicked on or explored. All the Best to you on your adventure and success for the year of 2018. One of your affiliate marketers followers at WA
