A little introduction, especially since so many of you are new here 👋🏽

I’m Margret - a mama, soldier, entrepreneur, mentor and Tongan woman preparing for a new chapter back home🇹🇴

Faith and family are at the heart of the life I’m building. Fitness keeps me grounded, and freedom means having the time to be present for the people I love and live life on my own terms.

I’ll always advocate for building multiple streams of income and having money of your own. To me, that’s part of creating choices for yourself and your family.

I share the wins, the hard decisions, and what it looks like to build a life around faith, family, fitness and freedom.

And of course, I’ll always give glory to God. Without Him, I’m nothing!

I’m currently in Brisbane, Australia. I would love to know where you’re from🫶🏽 by @buildwithmaggie

That means giving her more than just the basics.

It means giving her my time, my presence, experiences she’ll remember, and showing her what’s possible when you refuse to settle for a life that keeps you away from the people you love most.

That’s one of the biggest reasons I said yes to my online business.

Not because I wanted to get rich overnight.
Not because it was easy.
But because I wanted more choices.

The freedom to travel with her.
The flexibility to be there for the moments that matter.
To build a life where work fits around my family - not the other way around.

If you’ve been watching my journey and wondering what I do, maybe this is your sign to stop watching from the sidelines.

Send me a DM with “INFO” and I’ll happily share more 🫶🏽 taken in Bali, Indonesia by @buildwithmaggie

Lord, please forgive me. I left church camp for THIS.

I woke up at 6am, left home at 7:30am and drove 1.5 hours to church camp with my daughter. We were supposed to stay the night and leave the next afternoon.

Instead, we left that same arvo and drove another 2 hours because we got invited for dinner and coconut buns.

I’ve been craving coconut buns for DAYS, and boyyyyy, they were so damn delicious.

Lord, you know my heart.

Thank you @s.martini93 and @mrstaulanga_ for the 5-star dinnerrrrrr, the rant and the entertainment. I almost drove straight home after leaving church camp because I was so tired, but somehow I suddenly had more energy.

My sister and her crew❤️‍🔥

Fun fact: I’m the youngest of five, and my sister in this video is the ONLY one of my siblings who married a Tongan. Her full-blooded Tongan son, CHEEHOOOO, and my little half-Arab daughter cheering on the winning side🤪

Jokes aside, if you spent all your rent money celebrating, I know you might be stressing about it later.

But don’t worry, I’ve got your back. Hit me up and let’s look at how you can make some extra cash online hehe

As a solo mama living on my own in THIS economy, I still managed to save $900 this fortnight!

$3,120 - Income
$2,190 - Spent (rent & water not included)
$560 - Food alone😅 ($380 : Eating out)

$900 SAVED!!!

Most of my income comes from 3 streams: my salary, my online business, and being a silent business partner.

My 9-5 funded the business that’s now helping me build financial freedom.

As long as I’m saving and have more money than last time I did my finance, I’m happy hehe

People slide into my DMs asking how I’m doing so well…

And I genuinely try to help. But sometimes, they leave me on seen🤷🏽‍♀️

You tell me you’re living pay cheque to pay cheque, struggling with debt, trying to stretch a tight budget, and wanting to help your extended family…

But when I introduce you to an opportunity to learn something different, you disappear.

You won’t watch the masterclass. You won’t invest $99 USD to learn more. You won’t even give yourself the chance to see what’s possible.

So what do you actually want?

Because you can’t keep saying you want MORE and BETTER while refusing to take the first step towards change.

I’m not here to convince anyone. I can show you the door, but YOU have to decide whether you’re ready to walk through it.

For the men and women who are genuinely ready to learn, grow and create something different for themselves and their families, my DMs are always open.

THE CHOICE IS YOURS✨ by @buildwithmaggie

GET IN THE ROOM & ALWAYS BE A STUDENT.

I want to be in rooms with people who are doing what I want to do and living the life I’m working towards.

Because if you want to grow, you have to be willing to learn from people who are further ahead of you.

Stay humble enough to know you don’t know everything, be coachable enough to take advice, and be willing to invest in yourself.

You can spend 10 years figuring it all out alone or learn from someone who’s already walked the path.

That’s why I keep investing in my growth, my education and getting in rooms that challenge me to think bigger.

I’m not trying to be the smartest person in the room. I’m there to learn, grow and become better.

Never stop being a student. Your next level requires a new level of learning.

Get in the room. Stay teachable. Keep growing✨ by @buildwithmaggie

The same fear held me back for 3 YEARS!

It took becoming a mum for my WHY to become bigger than my fears.

Sometimes I wonder where I’d be today if I had started sooner.

Would I already be living back home in Tonga? Spending more time with my daughter and helping care for my grandparents?

Instead, I’m making that dream happen now.

And this business has already given me so much more than I expected.

🌍 I’ve met lifelong friends from all over the world.
✈️ I’ve travelled for business.
📈 I’ve developed new skills and grown in ways I never imagined.

And now, I’m preparing to leave my six figure Army career and build a life with more time, freedom and purpose.

What is staying behind your fears costing you?

Another year in a job you hate?
Another year putting your dreams on hold?
Another year wishing you could do more for your family?

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need to be willing to explore what’s possible.

If you’re curious about the online business I’ve been building, DM me “CURIOUS.” 💌
