Welcome to Tech Beach Mama!
New here? You're exactly where you need to be.
Hi, I'm Åsa — and I help single moms build remote tech careers so they can work from anywhere and finally have the freedom they deserve.
Who Am I and Why Should You Listen?
The short version:
In 2017, I was a broke single mom in Spain with two young kids, no money, and no options.
9 weeks later, I was a hired frontend developer.
Today, I work remotely from Barcelona, travel to beach clubs in Costa Brava and Formentera, and help other single moms do the same.
The details: I went from zero tech experience to frontend developer in one 9-week bootcamp (Ironhack). I've worked for Grant Thornton and built applications for Volkswagen. I doubled my salary in 5 years. And now I'm building Tech Beach Mama to help you do it faster than I did.
Is This For You?
This is for you if:
- You're a single mom (or any woman) ready for a career change
- You want to work remotely and have fl exible hours
- You're willing to learn something new (even with zero tech experience)
- You need to start earning €3,000-6,000/month freelancing (or €2,000-3,500/month if hired)
- You can dedicate 10-20 hours/week for 3-6 months
- You're ready to invest in yourself (time and some money)
- You want a skill that will always be valuable
This might not be for you if:
- You're looking for a get-rich-quick scheme (this takes work)
- You want passive income without learning skills
- You're not willing to invest any money in training
- You can't commit at least 10 hours/week
- You want someone else to do it for you
- You're not ready to step outside your comfort zone
Still here? Good. Let's continue.

Ready to Change Your Life?
You’ve read this far. That means something. Maybe you’re scared. Maybe you’re skeptical. Maybe you’re desperate. All of those are okay. I was all three when I started.
But here’s what I know: This path works.
It worked for me at 43 with no tech background, no money, and two kids to feed. It can work for you too.
The only question is: Will you start?
- 1. You’ll get the roadmap in your inbox immediately
- 2. I’ll send you weekly encouragement and tips
- 3. You’ll start Day 1 of your journey
- 4. In 90 days, you’ll be building websites
- 5. In 6 months, you could have your first client
- 6. In 1 year, you could be working from anywhere
But it starts with one decision. Make it today.
