In this episode, I sit down with my coaching client, Dana Daskalova, to unpack her journey from solopreneurship to finding a business model that actually works for her.

We talk about:

• Why she felt forced into running her own business and why she walked away.

• The pressure founders feel to “do it all” and the unrealistic expectations pushed online.

• How she discovered that solopreneurship wasn’t the right fit (despite being great at what she did).

• The identity shift that allowed her to let go of guilt, redefine success, and build a career she actually enjoys.

• What most founders get wrong about patience, consistency, and building real traction.

If you’ve ever questioned whether the way you’re working is actually working for you, this episode will give you a new perspective.
