I left my last employed position (part-time) in 2025 thinking it would be easy to transition to entrepreneurship full time. I’d been running my own business for eight years… so really, how hard could it be to leave a job?

As it turns out, the hardest part wasn’t building the business at all. It was unwinding decades of invisible rules around time, creativity, and safety. Rules I didn’t even realize were still running the show. Freedom, I’ve learned, is exciting…. but  also deeply uncomfortable.

This episode is an honest look at what my transition into full-time entrepreneurship has actually been like: the creativity that’s finally resurfacing, the unsettling freedom of having no one else to point at, and what it really means to learn how to be the boss of me.
