Welcome to The Frolics: The work from home, work/life balance, business process and journey hub
WELCOME: To my work from home, work/life balance, business process and journey hub: The Frolics
Hello and welcome to the family! I’m Ellen “Jelly” McRae and I’m the curator/writer/overly honest solopreneur behind The Frolics.
This is a space where I share real, raw and often taboo lessons and events that happen when you start, run and build a business.
If you came here for courses, workbooks or checklists, I’m sorry to say, this isn’t one of those platforms.
Perhaps that’s a good thing for you! In my opinion, the last thing the world needs is another course about the same old topic.
This is a community, where it’s all about asking questions, creating conversation and showing you what you want to know.
I want you to feel like you’re part of the process, because you are.
I do this by sharing:
My honest, unfiltered and unapologetic experience - Even if it was my fault, I talk about it
The mistakes I’ve made and why it was all a disaster
The wins I’ve had and what I know about replicating this success
Any one-to-one experiences I’ve had with other people like me - With their permission, of course!
Behind the scenes of the day to day life
EVERYONE IS WELCOME: You don’t have to be a solopreneur to enjoy the business journey and encourage others to pursue business ideas
I created The Frolics not to educate others like me on how to become a business owner or how to start a business.
As I said before, there are endless amounts of people already doing that.
I also don’t claim to be perfect, either.
This is my philosophy: what works for some people won’t work for others.
I would rather share my journey. My aim is to build a community of people who appreciate seeing the behind-the-scenes of their favourite brands and businesses.
It’s like a continuous business documentary, online and in real-time.
There are three main sections to The Frolics:
The Frolics (HOME) - This is the main hub for everything Frolics. You will find all my updates here, including paid and free. Sign up to The Frolics and you will get sent all the 1 x free monthly blogletter (sent directly to your email) and previews of paid content.
Highway: 1 Lovelock Drive + Highway: Behind The Scenes - 1 x weekly (minimum) and paid blogletter that deep dives into pursuing a business idea from inception to a fully-fledged business. It’s the ultimate behind-the-scenes, step-by-step process of how solopreneurs develop business ideas, including sneak peeks of upcoming content and FREE EBOOK access. Everything under the “Highway” banner is included in the paid subscription.

You never know; I may have been through it myself!
