Listen to the story of one of my Diamond Effect clients Gina who left her 9-5 at the beginning of 2022.

Gina also shares her experience of being a newer full-time business owner. My guest will tell you all about the ups and downs of her transformation.

Your mind starts asking all these questions the moment you entertain teh idea: you have a steady paycheck, benefits, stability ... What if you fail? What if no one wants to buy what you offer? What if you cannot create a consistent income? In September, I explore my own transition from a successful corporate leadership career to running my business full time in the hope of helping you make your own decisions.
