In this article, you’ll learn who Becca Luna and her husband, Willow Kaii are. You’ll learn how they built their six-figure design business and how you can too.
Hi—I’m Becca Luna. I’m a web designer and educator teaching creatives how to start a profitable business in non-traditional ways. If you don’t have experience or formal education, well, this is the place for you.
Feel free to peruse my blog, where you can learn all about web design, my story, and building a successful online business.
My Story Of Building a Profitable Business
In 2014, I dropped out of high school. I started working as a waitress, trying to make enough money to be able to travel the world—live out my lifelong goal as a digital nomad. But, it was sustainable. I couldn’t make enough money to pay rent as a waitress, let alone travel the world. So, in 2016, I jumped into the world of online services—as a virtual assistant.
At first, I loved the flexibility and freedom. But I quickly realized it wasn’t enough. The work wasn’t creatively fulfilling, and frankly, I was still being underpaid. I stuck with VAing to sustain my income while starting to learn everything about running a profitable online business.
Next, I found the world of web design. I built my first website on WordPress and sold it for a little over $1k. While it was great, I found WordPress clunky and slow. So I looked for alternatives. That’s when I found Showit, the Canva of web design. In short, Showit is the most versatile, easy-to-use, and customizable option I’ve found on the market.
Want to learn how to use Showit like a pro? Take a look at my CEO of Showit Course, where I’ll teach you everything I’ve learned in my past three years of using it. You’ll learn how to navigate the platform, build effortless sales pages, and integrate e-commerce tools seamlessly. Need I say more?
My Tips For Future Web Designers
Here’s what I recommend doing to overcome the hurdles of starting an online business:
Learn Everything You Can About Being an Entrepreneur: I wish that there were as many resources around when I started my business. Instead, I had to learn from my own mistakes. Thankfully, you can learn from my mistakes as well. Here’s my Wealthy Web Designer Course, where I’ve taught 500 creatives to launch their profitable online business. Alumni have gone on to make $20k within a couple of months of opening their stores.
Set Yourself Apart: As a web designer, you want to style that speaks to clients. When I first started, I was one of the few creatives building boho sites. To this day, my template shop is still called Bold x Boho because that’s my vibe.
Find Passive Income: If you really want to multiply your business, start building a passive income stream. And if you have no idea about how to start, here’s my Passive Passion Project, where you’ll learn everything you need to know about passive income as a web designer.
Get a Leg Up on the Competition: If you really want to start with a bang, you should design your sites using templates. It’ll save you time and money in the long run. If you want to take a look at some of the most stylish, unique, and completely commercially licensed templates, here they are. Or, if you’re on a tight budget, here are ten free templates you can use on Showit.

Success was never a question for me. Even after dropping out of high school and living the “digital nomad” lifestyle with absolutely no plan in place, I knew for a fact that there were big things waiting for me. When I found the online space in 2016, everything clicked. Starting as a VA, I finally found something that I could do while traveling the world (which is all I’ve ever really wanted out of life). But despite the fact that I was no longer tied down to a place of work, I was still limited in my income and feeling creatively unfulfilled. When I finally decided to allow myself to be the passionate creative that I am deep down, and took the plunge into the world of website design, everything changed for me. I work on my own time, with unlimited income potential, designing websites for passionate entrepreneurs, and I can teach you to do the same.
If you’re wondering where life could take you as a creative who feels allergic to the 9-5 lifestyle, I’d like to welcome you into my family. I gave a resounding “f*ck no” to the “traditional” a long time ago, and I’ve seen just how beautiful it can be when you chase your passions and turn them into massive profit.
150+ websites, 1,300+ students, and MILLIONS of dollars earned by my students… that’s a recipe for living a life that you’re excited to brag about.
