You were correct to enter your self-employment income first in the Self-Employment section for Schedule C.

 

You will need to delete your previous foreign earned income exclusion income that was double counted.

 

Then when you go to the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion section, you check the box  on the first screen that you had a Form 1099-MISC or other self-employment income.

 

On the next screen you enter your Gross Profit from Foreign Self-Employment.  The screen states that your worldwide business income should already be reported in the Business section of TurboTax.  

 

Then continue to answer the questions to qualify for the foreign earned income exclusion.
