In the last episode, I outlined a five-part plan  to successfully exit the corporate world. It's a guide that I used, refined, and now use to help others make the transition to entrepreneurship. In this episode, I'll go deeper into the Part One: The Freedom to Believe. And if you missed last week's episode, I encourage you to go back and listen.

176. It's Now or Never: Having the Freedom to Believe

Stuck in corporate? You're not alone.
Corporate is broken. Loyalty is dead. Layoffs are coming. And you know it.
But here's the truth most won't tell you: Building your own thing is easier than finding your next corporate job.
I'm Brett Trainor—corporate escapee after 25+ years—and I've helped 500+ professionals escape and build $10K-$50K/month solopreneur businesses using their corporate experience. No unicorn startups. No venture capital. Just you, your laptop, and the expertise you already have.
Every week, I bring you real escape stories, practical strategies, and proven playbooks from people who've left corporate and are thriving as consultants, fractional executives, coaches, and advisors.
You'll learn:
How to monetize years of corporate experience in 60 days
The exact steps to land your first $5K-$10K client
Why finding your next job is harder than building your business
How to replace your corporate salary (without the politics or layoffs)

If you're done waiting for corporate to quit you, this show is your escape plan.
