Welcome

I help aspiring entrepreneurs who are dissatisfied with their lives create automated online businesses so they can enjoy financial and geographical freedom.

Hi, I’m Sitraka Ratsimba, an enthusiastic digital nomad and a citizen of the world. I became a full-time blogger and business coach a year ago when I quit my corporate job.

But before that, I was living in the corporate world, caught in the rat race, and climbing the ladder of success like most people.

Perhaps like you, I always dreamt of starting my own business, achieving financial freedom, and traveling all over the world.

Due to the significant capital involved, this project never materialized because I needed to pay my bills and couldn’t afford to take risks.

My environment never encouraged me to start my own business. I used to work from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM with only an hour break. I seriously considered leaving the company, but I knew no one would hire me with my professional background at that time. Where I was born, 80% of the population lives on less than $2 per day, defining the threshold of extreme poverty. Multinational companies outsource almost everything to my country because we have a qualified young workforce and extremely low labor costs.

I am passionate about personal development.

Digital Marketing Specialist and Personal Development Enthusiast

In Chinese, they say: 千里之行，始於足下 (qiān lǐ zhī xíng, shǐ yú zú xià) or “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” Hello, I’m Sitraka Ratsimba, a Digital Marketing Specialist currently based in Madagascar. I want to focus more on business and entrepreneurship. I am passionate about personal development, business, books, hiking, and tea.

There is a notion called Ikigai in Japan, Dharma in Vedic philosophy, but simply put, it’s our reason for being. Considered your life mission, it is the combination of what you love to do, what you are good at, and what others could benefit from through you.

I discovered that I love public speaking, I live to grow, and I love to inspire others. At one point in my life, I wondered whether life had a meaning or not. It definitely does, but above all, we can create our own meaning. Speaking of contributions and added value, I believe I can contribute more by sharing knowledge, experiences, stories, and concrete examples to coach and inspire others.

I am from Madagascar—and English is only my 3rd language. I speak 5 languages (English, French, Malagasy, Mandarin, and German). As a learner, I am fascinated by the learning process itself. I have read hundreds of books but never had the opportunity to focus and share what I’ve learned. That’s why I created this website.

Languages and Public Speaking

I have always dreamed of being as comfortable in the mentioned languages as I am when speaking my mother tongue. Starting with English, I feel it’s a long journey. I like to remind myself that a foreign language opens up a new world. That’s why I keep learning, reading, and connecting with people from different cultures and backgrounds. We are one!

A vision

Imagine… What if?

Recently, discovering Naveen Jain’s lifestyle and TEDx videos, I noticed how much he loves to use these two phrases: Imagine that… What if? Yes, what if we inspired others through our actions? Imagine a world where everyone contributes to something, learns, grows, and supports others on their own journey.

My ultimate goal is to achieve financial freedom by becoming a serial entrepreneur. Only after that can I free up my time and focus on what I love most: teaching!

I have many inspiring role models such as Tony Robbins, Les Brown, Jim Rohn, Stephen Covey, Steve Pavlina, Yaro Starak, Tim Ferriss, Dan Lok, Olivier Roland, Lukas Mankow, and many others. All of them are committed to coaching, business, and mentorship.
