Launching this site—and my new YouTube channel—is more than just the start of a new project. It’s the beginning of a conversation I’ve wanted to have for years: how to create a business and a life that actually works for you.
If you’ve landed here, chances are you’re looking for something more. Maybe you’re a professional who’s followed the traditional path but now feels stuck. Maybe you’re curious about entrepreneurship, but the risk feels overwhelming. Or maybe you simply want more freedom—more space to travel, to spend time with family, to enjoy life outside of work.
I know that feeling. I’ve lived it. And that’s exactly what this space is about.
Who I Am
I’m Amber S. Hoffman, and my career has been anything but conventional. I started as a corporate tax attorney, spending over ten years working in the demanding world of law and business. But after realizing that the corporate track wasn’t the life I wanted, I took a leap that shocked many—I left my law career to travel the world.
What began as a passion project quickly grew into a career. For more than twelve years, I built a successful business as a global travel blogger, writer, and entrepreneur. I worked from cafés in Spain, explored new cultures, and built an online presence that reached millions of readers.
Today, I’ve combined all of those experiences into my next chapter: I’m a franchise owner, consultant, and now, a YouTube creator. I help others pivot with purpose, design businesses that thrive, and create lifestyles that balance stability with adventure.
What You Can Expect Here
This site—and my YouTube channel—are built around one central idea: success doesn’t have to fit into someone else’s box.
When you explore my content, you can expect a blend of:
- Business insights from my experiences as a corporate attorney, entrepreneur, and franchise owner.
- Lifestyle design strategies to help you align your career with your personal goals.
- Travel inspiration and stories that remind you of the freedom that’s possible when you build your life with intention.
- Practical advice and actionable tips that move you from “thinking about it” to actually creating change.
My goal isn’t just to inspire you—it’s to give you the tools and mindset shifts you need to make bold decisions and follow through.
Spotlight: The New YouTube Channel
The heart of this new chapter is my YouTube channel, where I’ll be sharing weekly videos that dig deeper into the themes I care most about: entrepreneurship, lifestyle design, and creating freedom through smart business choices.
Why YouTube? Because storytelling has always been at the core of what I do. And while writing has been my medium for over a decade, I know that video brings stories to life in a more personal way. You’ll hear my voice, see my experiences, and connect with me in a way that feels more like a conversation than a lecture.
Here’s what you’ll find on my channel:
- Franchising 101 – Real talk about what it means to own a franchise, how to evaluate opportunities, and whether franchising is right for you.
- Entrepreneurship Lessons – Practical strategies on marketing, scaling, and building multiple income streams, plus the real challenges I’ve faced along the way.
- Mindset Shifts – The perspectives that helped me go from corporate law to full-time entrepreneur, and how you can adopt a mindset that serves your goals.
- Lifestyle Design – How to build flexibility into your career so you can travel, spend more time with family, or simply enjoy more freedom day-to-day.
- Travel Stories & Inspiration – Lessons from my years living abroad and exploring Europe, and how those experiences shaped the way I run my businesses today.
Every video is designed to blend storytelling with strategy. You’ll walk away with insights you can apply, but you’ll also hear real stories of what worked, what didn’t, and what I learned along the way.
Why This Matters
I know how easy it is to feel trapped by the choices you’ve already made. For years, I believed that because I went to law school, my only option was to climb the corporate ladder. I thought success meant stability, a good paycheck, and a title that impressed people at cocktail parties.
But deep down, I wanted something more. I wanted freedom, creativity, and the ability to design my own path.
The truth is, you don’t have to choose between stability and freedom. You can build a career that gives you both. That’s what I’ve done—and that’s what I want to help you do, too.
