The Coach Who Codes

Diane Corriette

Operator turned builder · Learned to code at 57 · Founder of Djangify

I'm building an independent digital business in public — using software I built myself and AI as my assistant.

For most of my career I was the operator - behind the scenes, running everything for other people. It paid well, but every penny came from selling my time. Now I'm building the opposite: Recurring monthly income from sites that sell digital products and a small group who love what I do - my 1,000 true fans.

Follow the experiment.

About Me

I turn years of expertise into products people buy.

I'm Diane Corriette. I spent decades getting good at things — coaching, marketing, and running businesses behind the scenes for other people. Now I package that expertise into digital products and sell them through Djangify, the eCommerce system I built to run it all.

That's the idea I'm out to prove: if you've spent years becoming good at something through your job, your business, or lived experience, that knowledge is worth selling. You don't need a huge audience or personal brand. You need something people want, a place of your own to sell it, and a small group who value what you do. At 57 I learned to code so I could build exactly that, and now I'm doing it in public, so you can see how it works.
