Show Notes

I’m sharing an episode from my podcast archive today! This is from a time when I was a side hustler and making the decision to go full time in my business.

The decision to go full time is not an easy one to make. So I wanted to talk through this on the podcast so you can see the thought process that I went through.

I originally thought that if I signed X amount of clients at Y price I would be able to quit my job. But I quickly realized that that business model wasn’t right for me because my time was so limited.

As I considered other ways to go full time, I found that these 5 things kept coming up over and over again:

1. I had competing priorities. Ask yourself what you want to step into entrepreneurship with and make that happen.
2. Being realistic vs. dreaming big. Develop a goal that pushes you out of your comfort zone but is still attainable.
3. Finding a support system in the online space. Find business besties who really “get it” and realize that your goals can be different.
4. Don’t try to set everything perfectly. You still won’t ever think you’re ready and leaving your job will always feel like some sort of leap into the unknown.
5. Make decisions. Taking action is the most important thing.

If you notice, the list above is not really about strategy. 85% of this is all in our heads, it is our mindset. We have control over the thoughts that we think that can bring the results we want.

You are not alone here! This is a big decision and it is ok if you need a minute. What is important is that you don’t stay stuck.
