Hi, I’m Stacey.
I run a family-supported online business built by sharing the things I’ve learned, the deals I find, and what’s worked for me in real life.
I started in the online space in May 2022 after realizing I needed a different way to create income and flexibility in midlife. I didn’t come online looking for attention or shortcuts. I came here to build something sustainable that could grow over time.
I live in a small town near Table Rock Lake in the Ozarks. I’m a mom of two grown kids, a dog lover, and someone who prefers quiet consistency over loud promises.
How this actually started
When I first came online, I wasn’t sharing deals.
I was learning.
Learning how people earned money online in real ways.
Learning what worked, what didn’t, and what felt sustainable long-term.
Learning how to build income without pretending to be someone I wasn’t or following loud promises that didn’t fit my life.
I spent a lot of money learning.
I made mistakes.
I adjusted.
And I kept going.
What started as curiosity slowly turned into consistency.
Over time, the things I genuinely enjoyed like finding good deals, sharing helpful information, and connecting with people became income.
What I do now (and how it grew)
I didn’t build income by coaching calls or selling big promises. I built it by doing the work and learning what actually lasts.
I built it by showing up consistently, testing ideas, and building trust over time through affiliate marketing and digital products.
That process allowed me to:
Build audiences totaling over 500,000 across platforms
Create steady online income
Retire my husband
Build a life that feels calm, flexible, and aligned
Today, this is very much a family-supported business. My husband, daughter, son, and daughter-in-law all help behind the scenes.
Online at the Lake is where I share that work, whether it’s daily deals, helpful finds, or what I’ve learned about building income online in a realistic way.
If you’re curious about earning income online
Here’s what I want you to know.
Most people get stuck because they think they need the “right” idea, the “right” platform, or the “right” strategy before they begin.
That’s not true.
There are many ways to turn something you already enjoy, know a lot about, or naturally gravitate toward into income.
The hardest part is not choosing a strategy.
It’s knowing where to start without feeling overwhelmed or behind.
That’s why I created a short, clarity-first guide for people who want to slow down, get grounded, and understand what actually matters before taking the next step.
No hype.
No pressure.
Just a calm place to begin.
Welcome to Online at the Lake.
