Hey there! My name is Torie. I was born in the sunny town of Pensacola, Florida, where my journey into entrepreneurship truly began. Growing up, I was constantly inspired by my mother’s dedication as she ran a convalescence home for two decades. Watching her juggle responsibilities and forge her own path showed me firsthand what it meant to be an entrepreneur.
As a kid, my dreams were colorful and full of ambition. My best friend wanted to break into the fashion industry with his own clothing line. Sadly he passed away in 2020, after us making so many plans together. That was my best friend since childhood, so that temporarily crushed my dreams. After a couple of years of grieving, I eventually got better. Meanwhile, I dreamt of a life on the move, working from my laptop anywhere in the world. This vision didn’t just fuel my passion; it also solidified my belief in helping others chase their dreams. That’s what led to the creation of ‘Torie Builds’, a platform that aligns perfectly with my goals.
There was a time when I felt lost in the noise of life and business, unsure what really fueled me anymore. Writing ‘Can’t Find My Passion‘ helped me reconnect with parts of myself I thought I’d outgrown.
At Torie Builds, I’m immersed in the world of affiliate marketing and drop shipping. It’s more than just a job—it’s a mission to empower others. I believe deeply in encouraging people to follow their dreams and build confidence in their abilities. This commitment to inspiration is the core of my brand and the experiences I want to share.
But it’s not just about business. My love for different cultures and the freedom to explore new places ties closely to my professional journey. It allows me to blend my hobbies with my career, making every day feel less like work and more like an adventure. I built this site to help others discover home-based businesses that are profitable.
Stay tuned as I dive deeper into the nuts and bolts of affiliate marketing in the next section, where I’ll share the lessons learned and strategies that have shaped Torie Builds into what it is today.
