What happens when corporate stress gets so bad you literally can’t swallow solid food?

That’s where Claire Sullivan found herself.

On December 1st, 2023, corporate quit on her — and she took what most people would call the riskiest step possible:

She built a business… the same day.

• Filed an LLC
• Registered everything needed to operate
• Posted on LinkedIn that she was going out on her own
• Listened to what the market actually wanted
• And replaced her former salary by the end of the week

Is that typical? No.

Is it possible? Absolutely.

And more importantly — the steps she took are repeatable for anyone stuck in a corporate job that no longer works for them.

This is one of the most real and honest conversations we’ve had on what it actually looks like to escape corporate — emotionally, financially, mentally, and practically.

Who This Episode Is For

This one is for you if:

• Corporate has stopped making sense
• Every job application feels like it goes into a black hole
• You’re burned out but can’t “just quit”
• You want control over your time, income, and health
• You don’t think you have “enough” experience to go out on your own
• You just need one real example of someone who actually did it
