This episode is the one I’m scared to share. I’m coming out with something that’s been holding me back in my business and my career: SURPRISE, I still have a day job.

For seven years I haven’t told clients I have a career in nonprofits and I haven’t shared with my work colleagues that I’m a business owner. Living this dual life has been exhausting and kept me from fully tapping into why it’s beneficial to everyone that I am continuously growing in multiple directions.

In this episode I share:

• The struggle to keep cover all of my experiences and interests under one job title;
• What it’s like to work for someone else as an entrepreneur;
• The specific concerns I had about sharing my educational and professional background with clients;
• Why I don’t consider my business a “side hustle”;
• The unexpected freedom work gives me in my business; and
• How long I’m planning on balancing both work streams.
