Identity Theft, Business Failure, and a Smarter Move for You
Happy Saturday Fearless reader,
Imagine waking up one morning, checking your business bank account… and finding it empty. Not just a few suspicious charges—completely drained.
Gone. Your hard-earned money, wiped out overnight.
This isn’t some horror story I made up to scare you.
It happened to a small business owner in Maryland.
Her name is Hyeon-Jin Kwon, and she ran an acupuncture practice. A thief stole her wallet, then posed as her bank to gain access to her account. In just a few clicks, they wired out nearly $56,000—her entire earnings—leaving her scrambling to keep business alive.
Yes, she eventually got most of it back, but not all.
The stress? Unreal.
The feeling of helplessness? Crushing.
The damage? Done.
Trust? Forever gone!
Now, why am I telling you this?
Because business isn’t just about making money—it’s about protecting it. And that lesson? I learned the hard way, too.
The One Business Mistake That Almost Took Me Down
Years ago, I made a decision that seemed smart at the time—I put all my eggs in one basket. My entire business relied on one supplier. Exclusive distribution rights. Marketing money. Just me, running for them in a whole country.
Everything was running smoothly… until one day, they went bankrupt.
Overnight, my operation collapsed. No inventory. No backup plan. No business.
That mistake cost me years of rebuilding.
And that’s why I don’t take unnecessary risks anymore.
How This Affects You (and Why It’s a Good Thing)
Prudence isn’t about fear—it’s about protecting what you’ve built. Wisely.
That’s why, starting next week, I’m making a small but important shift.
You’re still getting my emails from Substack—nothing changes there. But from now on, you’ll also receive some of them from my Kit account. Senders email address: fearless@sanaterrafarm.ro.
Why?
Because relying on one single platform—even a great one like Substack—is just another version of the mistake I made years ago.
I refuse to be caught off guard again. :-)
But this isn’t about me.
It’s about you—and the world we are living in.
A world that’s pushing us to rely on systems we don’t control.
A world that keeps us fearful, dependent, and cut off from true security.
And that’s exactly why you get these emails from me.
Because you don’t have to play that game.
You’re here because you know - no, you feel - there’s another way. A way where you take matters into your own hands. Where you build resilience in business, health, and life.
We don’t put blind trust in fragile systems.
We trust Nature.
Because Nature is stable, reliable, and abundant. And when we align with it, we become self-reliant in every aspect of life. Naturally.
That’s the transition we’re making here.
From fear to confidence. From helpless to capable. From uncertainty to knowing exactly how to stand strong—no matter what happens around us.
I promise that I design every email I send to help you move in that direction.
Tomorrow’s article? You don’t want to miss it.

It’s a conversation that’s long overdue.
You will see the world in a new way after reading it.
To your natural future,
Daniel
PS: the entire story about the above-mentioned theft, you can read here:
Had similar thing happen with bank account several times even after changing banks. Keep very little in bank. Have means to protect myself 😉 I am also setting up KIT but having some integrations issues with that- have been told others have too but hoping to get that worked out. Do not want to use Mailchimp as has so many issues there when on YT. But I agree don't put all eggs in one basket. Thanks for sharing 🙏
This is a sensible thing to do. I feel should also do the same with the beehiiv account I created.
