About this listen
“Should I just get a job?” Let’s talk about it.
If you’re knee-deep in your business or side-hustle, running on passion and caffeine…but the money? Not delivering. This episode is for you.
I bet the financial stress has got you playing with the idea of getting a job. A stable income can start to look dangerously sexy when your creativity is flatlined with the stress of not earning enough money.
But does taking a job mean you’ve failed?
Only if you let it.
I get it, because I did it. After years of freelancing, bouncing between contracts and running the business, I went back to full-time work–and guess what, it hasn’t killed me.
In this episode, I’m sharing exactly why this move, though kind of embarrassing at first (cue ego battle), turned out to be the smartest, most sanity-saving pivot I could have made.
You’ll hear:
-
What changed my mind about going back to a 9-5
-
How being around a smart, small team has taught me more than any business course
-
How it gave me back my confidence, clarity and creativity
-
The mindset shift that helped me see this season as strategic, not as a step back
-
Why choosing financial stability for now doesn’t mean giving up, it just means you’re setting yourself up
So, if you’re currently drowning in self-doubt, bank account anxiety and decision paralysis, this is the episode you didn’t know you needed.
And if you’re feeling lost and need some grounding clarity, like yesterday, download the Life GPS–it’ll help you decide whether getting a job is the right move for you right now.
