Living Loud Soon to be, former nurse turned FT reseller @ 53! Mom of 10, Granny to 37+ proving it is never too late to chase your dreams.

Welcome to the new chapter of my life! I am so glad you are here.

If you don’t know me, I am the face behind Dabras (pronounced Da-Brauz). For years, I dedicated my life to nursing, caring for others in their most vulnerable moments. But at 53, I decided it was time to care for my own dreams. I took a massive leap of faith, decided to leave the nursing field, and become a full-time reseller.

Why? Because I wanted to prove that it is NEVER too late to start over. As the sole breadwinner for my family—which includes a beautifully blended crew of 10 kids and 37 (and counting!) grandkids—I know a thing or two about hard work and chaos.

Here at Living Loud, I am sharing the real, unfiltered journey of building a business from home. You will see the good, the bad, and the hilarious reality of liquidation pallets, thrifting vintage western wear, and selling on Whatnot, eBay, and Marketplace. (And you won't see me shipping glass, because who has time for that stress?!)

If I can reinvent myself at 53 and build a full-time home business, YOU can chase your dreams, too.

Follow along for the reselling tips, the crazy family stories, and a whole lot of motivation. Let’s live loud together!

Working on grabbing a few of these Costco pallets for my reopening of my Whatnot shows. Also watching some JCP lots. Keeping my fingers crossed for some great brands to offer deep discounts on.

Leaving the nursing field is my final goal. No, I dont hate being a nurse, I just hate the politics that follow. The bottom line is always the almighty dollar, not the patient. Im 15 years in and have worked in many areas. The end game is always the same, no matter the setting. So im ready to throw in the towel and go for my dream to be a full time reseller. Just pulling all my ducks in a row and then planning my exit strategy.

Starting over is a hard thing to do when trying to grow a presence on social media. Shutting down my personal profile and moving to a Page is a decision I didn't take lightly. Having to grab monetization all over again is pure madness but here we go! Starting from 12 followers. Lets see how high we can fly!
New strategies new perspectives on what growth looks like.

Good morning folks! Time to get this party started! What are your plans for today?

I don’t need a vacation.
I need a nap that lasts 3–5 business days.

Yes, I’m a nurse. No, I don’t know what that rash is. 😂

What’s your side hustle? 🤔💜
Let’s be real… in this wildly expensive world, most of us aren’t chasing a “7-figure income.”
We’re chasing a week of groceries, rent, gas money, or a little breathing room.
Ingenuity has kicked in, and a lot of us are looking beyond our 9-5s to fill those ever-widening gaps.

I’ll go first — keeping it simple:

✨ My side hustles:
1️⃣ Reselling
2️⃣ Building and growing this page with the goal of monetization

Now it’s your turn 👇
