Meet the Founder: Evelyn Brooks

Evelyn Brooks is a business strategist, former corporate marketer, and the heart behind My Business Nest. But this site wasn’t born from a boardroom—it was born from rock bottom.

Evelyn Brooks

In 2014, Evelyn was unexpectedly laid off during a corporate downsizing. With no safety net, two young kids, and bills mounting, she turned to freelance marketing just to make ends meet. She quickly discovered how difficult it was to figure out everything alone: pricing, taxes, branding, websites, client management—you name it.

Out of that chaos came clarity: if she could figure it out and make it work, she’d help others do the same.

What started as a personal blog grew into a thriving platform serving thousands of readers each month. Today, Evelyn shares actionable advice, business templates, startup checklists, mindset tools, and lessons from the trenches—so you don’t have to learn the hard way.
